I highly recommend this component cable to improve the graphics/picture quality for a wii, especially if you are using a widescreen (16x9) HDTV. In my opinion, the difference in picture quality between the composite cable supplied with the wii versus this component cable was like watching a VHS movie (using the Nintendo composite cable) versus watching a DVD movie (using this component cable). If you're looking to improve the graphics of your wii on a widescreen tv, buy one of these cables with confidence.
Neither the sales advertisement nor the packaging the component cable was shipped in indicated the cable length. I estimate the component cable to be approximatley 6' in length. |
Quality at a great price

| I did notice a significant difference between the component cable and the one that came with the Wii. I have a 46" LCD though so the Wii looks crappy compared to any of the hi-def gaming systems. That being said, it still looks better than it originally did. Hopefully they will some day be able to get it to convert to a higher resolution (at least 720) but probably not till they release a new generation of consoles. |
Works greart, reasonable price

| This is one of the cheapest Wii Component Cables on the market. On the contrary to what you might think, the quality of this cable is extremely good. I have been using this for months without any degradation or problems whatsoever. Very highly recommended. |
Great way to upgrade your picture

Before I bought my big screen TV, I was playing on an old 27" CRT TV. From the couch about 10' away, I had a hard time telling a 6 from an 8 on games like PES 2009 and Madden '09 so I ordered this little guy. I had both of the cables plugged in to the TV and swapped back and forth to get an idea of the difference in picture quality. You really can tell quite a bit of difference with the component cables. It was much easier to read text after the swap. Now that I have my 46" widescreen flat panel, the picture is fantastic. You can see almost half the field at once on PES2009!
It doesn't matter what kind of TV you currently have, this is one of the best things you can do to enhance your play time with your Wii, and for the price, it's a no-brainer.
Try it, you'll be glad you did! |
Works fine, great price

| It's a cable. There are only two questions. (1) Is the price good? --> Yes, paid less than $10 including shipping. (2) Does it work? --> Yes, the picture is a bit better than with the standard cables. |
Does it's job

| Got the cable, simple connection works great, can't see much of a difference but it's 480p on a 1080p TV so it wasn't expected. Great quality cable over all. |
Great cables at a rock bottom price!

I was really impressed by the quality of these cables. The picture looks great - just as good as some much more expensive cables that my friends bought.
Awesome product and a great price too!! |
Excellent cables for the price

These cables are excellent. The Wii looks much better over component cables than over the composite cables it comes with.
Do not spend $15-$30 more when these cables are just as good, if not better! |
Game On!

After seeing the ridiculous amount Nintendo wanted for their Component AV cable, I decided to look elsewhere. I mean, come on $30 plus shipping for a cable? A cable! You know, cable is pretty much the same once you get past the connectors.
Yeah, I figured I'd get this for $3 and $3 shipping. Works for me. Fixed my issues with blurry gaming on my HDTV immediately. Is this cable as good as the Nintendo one? Since I never saw the Nintendo one in use, I'm guessing it probably is. Whatever. All I know is that I saved almost 30 bones bypassing Nintendo entirely. Do yourself a favor and do the same thing. |
