Cable for connecting Nintendo Wii to a TV with SCART connection.
This will only work on PAL Wii, since NTSC Wii doesn't output RGB.

There has been reports that NTSC Wii outputs +12VDC all the time on pin 13, instead of +6VDC for 16:9 and +12VDC for 4:3.
2.2kΩ 2.2kΩ
Pin 13 at Wii (+12VDC) -------RRR------+------RRR------ Pin 12 at Wii (GND)

Pin 8 at SCART (Switching)
2.2k resistor is a good value because it doesn't draw too much current even if loaded with 10k from the SCART, the voltage doesn't fall outside of the spec.
