Just got my component cables!

[akguy53]

Just got the component cables. They work great and you can definitely see the difference. The other plus is that I can now see the VC NES games I bought on my LCD screen. Before these cables I could only see them on a tube tv.

I got them for $17 from http://stores.ebay.com/jetport on ebay. You can usually get buy them for start price. I got them quickly and they work fine.

[crazydog1]

are they really worth gettin???

 

[klepto]

well, if you have a tv with component inputs, then yes

 

[Vertiginous]

thats not necessarily true...I have component inputs on both of my TV's...yet they won't support 480p with the cables and won't run the Wii with them :arf: So I wouldn't jump to conclusions :arf:

well, if you have a tv with component inputs AND supports 480p, then yes :arf:

I ordered those, they should be coming in the mail soon. Currently, I am using the component cables from my buddy and they are great.:ihih:

That's not necessairly true either. If you've got component input on your TV, then it will look better than composite even at 480i.

 

[Vertiginous]

yeah but its pretty hard to notice, since its still in 480i...to the untrained eye that is

Ha, just placed my order for some at madcatz.com; with shipping they were $27, but I don't mind because I know they'll be well made. I sure hope they make everything look quite a bit better on my 27" flat tube TV like the component cables for my Xbox made everything look much better. Even if it isn't a massive change from the standard composite, at least I'll have an extra set that I can take to a friend's house and I can just leave the component cables plugged into the TV.

When i put my component cables in, in Wii sports you start to notice jaggies. :/ Oh well, but Zelda is actually much prettier and i don't see any jaggies like i do in Wii Sports
