Try avforum, they helped me. You need to give details such as price limit, size limit, hd/sd e.t.c.

I agree with dan99eil! A TV!
A TV! And 1 Wii?
I have an old goldfish bowl I found at the dump and I put a candle in it to simulate a tiny bit what it must be like to own a tv...
I also use old tv remotes (also found at dump) to simulate what it must be like to own and play a wii...
I can't beleive you have a wii, AND A TV!!! You rich B*astard!!!

I've got a 15" LCD screen in my bedroom and it's great on it!
Really smooth.

Im looking to spend about $400. It would be nice to get at least a 32 in. Im not really sure if I need hdtv or whatever but I might as well include that.

Well, if you only got a Wii, than just make sure you find one that has 480p. Trust me 480p is very nice too.

Ouch, a 32" for 400$. Seriously check out avforums.com, become a member and ask there, you'll get some seriously good reviews on 32" screens and they have threads for getting money off with promotional codes.

May consider a projector and use a wall as screen, it feel like in a real world

For $400, you can probably get a 23" EDTV from a less-respected brand (meaning not Sony, Samsung, LG, Philips, etc.).

I guess it depends on what you are going to use it for. If this is going to be a main tv for a while, then I would suggest spending a little bit more and getting something HD. If you are just going to keep it in your room and only use it to watch late night tv and the occasional movie and wii playing, then any modern non-crt tv will do.

Here here!
I brought my Wii over to a pal's house and hooked it up to his projector and played bowling and zelda. Truly spectacular. It was almost like we really were on a bowling ally.
