I have a dlp tv and am wondering if connecting a wii might cause burn in or some other problem?

Hasn't happened on my friends TV, and he plays at least an hour everyday.

As long as you don't have the brightness/contrast set too high you should be OK.

there is a burn in reduction rate setting in the wii options.

It's my understanding that DLP televisons aren't really susceptible to image burn-in.

According to DLP.com, "DLP® HDTV does not use materials, such as phosphors or tubes, that can retain burned-in images on your screen. Instead, DLP® HDTV uses millions of tiny, microscopic mirrors to reflect light digitally onto the screen, producing stunning pictures with no burn-in."

I'd still avoid leaving static images on the screen for too long. Try to remember to turn it off when you aren't using it to conserve the life of the lamp inside. The lamps will burn out and will probably cost a couple hundred bucks to replace.

Have fun with your Wii.

cool thanks for the infos!

does the wii have issues with burning images in the t.v.?

I don't think so, I've been out of the loop with video games in general for quite a few years and the last thing I remember hearing about some years back was some of these new types of tv's were not good to play games on because they get the burn or damaged somehow.

now

who has some good game recommendations

I'm playing Death Jr. lately, it as a multiplayer mode - so it's like a cute couple game..
It caused me what I figured out is a Wii elbow, quite painfull actually.

Zelda and Fit are mandatory.
Mario Kart let you breed if you have kids.

i've been downloading games like crazy!
mega man 1, 2, 3, 9 (which is brand new)
legend of zelda: a link to the past
super mario 1, 3, world
punch out
earthworm jim
...and a bunch of others

ALWAYS use your wrist strap!

and don't stand too close to each other if you're playing with someone! Ouch.

Games: Mario Bothers Galaxy is decent. My kids dig Wii Lego Batman. It's fun but not extremely challenging. Raving Rabids is a fun game for adults and kids. Yeah, I guess when you get down to it, it's all about the kids with the Wii in my house.

How'd you mod your Wii?

no mods needed!
download from their virtual console store
nes games for 5 bucks, snes games for 8 bucks

almost finished with a link to the past...
one more crystal, and a few more heart pieces to go before the battle with ganon

Mario Kart is fun. Call of Duty: World at War is also fun.

How is this on the Wii??????

If you have kids around, Mario Kart rules!

ok I'm not having fun I suck at everything

What game are you playing?

so far just wii sports and wiiplay, I'm mostly frustrated with sucking at bowling lol

oh yea golf is pissing me off pretty good too

''it's all in the hips.."

golf pisses me off too, especially when you just need to putt the ball a foot far and all of a sudden the ball goes all across the green.

Slack,
Are you into shooting zombies and shit?
