Little Wii Component Cables

by iBenoit

Picked up some Component cables right before Xmas. i was surprised to see them while Christmas shopping as I had read on the Web that these were pretty hard to find and fetching a good price on Ebay. The first set of cables I found was at Microplay in Gatineau. they were priced at $39.99. I picked'em up but decided I would do a little research on them before opening the package.

Good thing I waited because during Xmas holidays, I found a set by MadCatz for $25 at EBGames. Returned the unopened cables the next day. Been happier ever since.

Are they worth it? For me - definately. Given that I play on a Plasma and that the cable that came with the Wii was a single yellow RCA... I can definately see the difference - especially on Zelda. If you have a regular TV without 480 output; i wouldn't bother.

I could see these higher quality cables coming in handy if you have a sweet tv like yourself, but for poo' James and Ferda who live on the other side of the tracks - not worth it at the moment.

Perhaps though a new TV is in our future...

What brand is yours R2?
