I got this problem with were I'm going to put the wii.
here is my scenario.

Living room = B'n'O CRT Tv (non HDTV)
Av1 has a VCR recorder (only thing my Dad knows how to use)
Av2 is the Ps2

Problem is I can't plug the wii into the VCR because the VCR is that old and I cant remove the PS2 because it subs as a DVD player

Loung/Kitchen = Sharp 20" Tv LCD (non HDTV)
AV1 is a DVD/VCR player
AV2 is Cam recorder

Problem is this is the Tv that my parents watch 24/7 and when there not watching it my sister is eating nachos and watching a DVD. And the tv is way to small for the wii's gaming experience, it has to be at least 26"

Plz solve this problem because I am going to have to unplug the PS2 plug in the wii (play the Wii) Un plug the wii plug the PS2 back in continuly untill I gain anough money for my own HDTV

How bout purchasing an AV Selector? You know those boxes where you plug in all your consoles and so on, and just press a button to select which input you want. They're not too expensive, I don't think.

I just recently bought a Component Selector for my various consoles/dvd player, since my TV only has one Component... plug thingy on it. Haha, I suck at describing things.

Umm. unplug the tv in the kitchen. take it into your bedroom and play wii in there. Ransom TV back to parents for pocket money.

Seriously though a AV switch is the best or pick a DVD recorder. I grabbed one from woolworths (safeway) for $169. It has s/video x2, AVx2, component and USB connections.

Then you can plug your PS2 & Wii and have heaps of room to spare.
