Madcatz Cable is Great!June 4, 2008 I just got the Madcatz Component cable for my Wii and it works great. It definitely improved the quality of the graphics on my Wii and Sony Bigscreen HD TV. It even has gold plated connectors which kind of surprised me for the price. It is at least $10 less than the Nintendo cable and definitely works just as good. It is a great deal for the money. It is clearly well made and sturdy. The nearly 10 foot length is a big help too. All in all, a worthwhile investment if you have an HD TV to plug into.
Cable Definitely PerformsMay 28, 2008 The component cable defintely makes a difference over the composite cable. The quality of the cable is good. It could be of heavier thickness for durability, but my cable never moves, so I am satisfied with it. The only downside is that two of the plugs have red bands; one for audio and one for video. You have to differentiate the two by relative location.
It actually work so go ahead and buy it.May 19, 2008 I plugged it in and it worked with no problem. My kids noticed that on Super Mario Brothers that they could see additional detail on the turtle's shell so that was cool.
Improved pictureMay 17, 2008 Connected my Wii to my Samsung 40" LCD HDTV and was well pleased at picture. Excellent cables at inexpensive price.
Good DealMay 15, 2008 This is way cheaper than the first-party cable and I can't see how the quality would be any different. Good buy.
