How to Play a Wii on Your Computer

The XCM V-Box connects the computer's USB port to the Wii and allows the Wii to be played on your PC. The device uses software that can be downloaded from the XCM website to establish the connection to the computer and allow game play. The game is still played using the Wii remote and sensor as it would with playing on a television, and the game play is the same as well.
