Ownership verified by DX Works perfectly

Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Price: starstarstarstarstar

Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: Wii end of the cable fits perfectly and the color is very close to the original cable
Connectors fit properly into the RCA jacks and are not too loose or tight
Connectors appear to be gold plated
RCA connectors are easy to distinguish and cannot be easily confused

Cons: Nothing. Of course it would be nice if the wii did 720p or 1080p but that is up to Nintendo

Other Thoughts: I can't believe anybody would get confused between the red video connector and the red audio connector, they are very different in appearance and are very easy to tell apart

Bottomline: Many times cheaper than the original Nintendo cable and it works just as well. If you have a TV that supports 480p input then you should get this cable for your wii.

Pros: The cable came in a pretty and professional looking box. The connector fits nicely into the Wii, not too tight, not too loose. It's cheap and working out of the box.

Cons: Less experienced users may get confused with the red audio cable and the red video cable. But I am sure they will be able to figure it out... eventually ;-)

Other Thoughts: I don't have any other thoughts. It's working and this is what I was looking for.

Bottomline: I saw comparable cables in store and they cost much more. This ones fits nicely and work out of the box. I highly suggest it.

Pros: -It is much better than using the composite cables included with the system, as immediately upon plugging it in and switching the output to EDTV(480p)in the wii menu, the text is sharper, colours will be more vivid(especially noticable for me while playing Mario Galaxy and also Mario Kart!)
-The cord itself is a lovely shade of white which matches the Wii console!
-Cord length is about 6 feet, which I assume would be adequate for most users, especially with side component inputs which are common enough!

Cons: -Wish it could improve the picture and sound even more, but it's not the cable's fault the Wii doesn't support high-definition!

Other Thoughts: Don't expect a miracle from this product, but if you have you Wii connected to an lcd screen(and I would say the majority of people do these days) your eyes will love you for this!

Bottomline: This is about $20 cheaper than the retail version, so you can't go wrong!

Ownership verified by DX Good component cable

Price: starstarstarstar

Build Quality: starstarstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: -Good quality cable (almost as thick as original Wii Component cable)
-Gold like connectors on RCA
-White colour matches the Wii console, don't know why nintendo use dark gray for their cable.

Cons: -Mine come with the same color for RED component and RED audio
-Not gold platted (maybe will cost more)
-RCA connector is easy fit or a bit loose for my taste.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Get this if you want 480p(progessive) support for Wii and Gamecube games. A must for LCD owner. The different between component and composite is huge. I have my Wii connected to 32" Sony Bravia V series.
