Connecting a Wii to a HD TV using coloured pins

This is the back of my Philips LED HD TV:

TV sockets

The sockets are dark blue, yellow and aqua-blue. My Wii has Red, White and Yellow pins.

I have tried all combinations of connecting the Pins in different sockets but I always get "No Video signal" on the TV.

Can some one help me fix this please?

If the TV doesn't have the Red, White & Yellow sockets located elsewhere, you won't be able to use it

Those sockets are for component, not standard definition

If you have a SCART socket though and have one of these around you will be able to use it. Otherwise you can use a converter to allow it to play through a HDMI socket, for around $20.

In addition to Rainbows' suggestions, you can also buy a Red/Yellow/White to HDMI converter (which every HDTV has). They are just somewhat (well a LOT) more expensive:

It just isn't possible with the input sockets you photographed.
