Gamecube component video cables..

[Cafe_333]

If it's in your budget you may still want to consider getting the component cable for the Game Cube because it will give you a very much higher resolution over what s-video can do hands down. I mentioned the RCA cable because I thought he was looking for just plain component cable. As it turns out he's not, lol. Anyways, but I do agree with you that s-video is way better than the RCA video as it does offer more lines of resolution - and hey, it only costed you 2 bucks!!

I spent a lot of time looking for component cables for the GameCube awhile ago, couldn't find them anywhere whatsoever except Nintendo's site. You may want to go with S-Video, the quality is still immensely superioer to the composite ones.

I got the aforementioned S-Video cord for $2 brand new, it's a BIG difference. I'll never use RCA for any video gaming ever again...

yup, especially when the new Zelda comes out later this year. Along with my new TV, I want the best gaming experience possible!

The S-video cable you mention .. how did you get it for $2? Don't you need the console specific kind? So that one end plugs into the Gamecube?

Hmm, can't find the component...I think Monster sells them for each console, but only X-Box/PS2 ones were in stock wherever I looked.

I don't play my Cube enough or have a large enough screen to get a component cable, considering my current finances...

It was a GameCube only cable from a lesser known manufacturer (starts with P, can't recall the name) that I picked up from CompuCentre.

It was the last one in stock, but you can probably find either that or the $10 Mad Catz variety at any electronics store; they should come pretty cheap, either way. Compared to RCA, it's still a worthwhile difference if you can't get/afford component.

I sold my cube because it looked absolutely horrible on my 50" DLP without component... I still think Nintendo is ******** to remove the capability on newer cubes. Not to mention not make the cables more readily available

bump ..

Oh wow .. just got a confirmation email that my backordered component cable finally shipped!
