Hi Guys,

Finally got my component cable yay !
Okies here is my feedback based on my TV (Plasma)

576i & 480i look allot better with component, there is greater detail and sharpness also the textures are clearer, even in Wii sports.
480p on my set at least is better again, with even more definition and better/clearer textures.

Of course your milage may vary from TV to TV, at lease that is my experience with Plasma & my Wii.

Overall it is most definatly worth the money !

Okay also, JB-HiFi will have 3rd part component cables in next week sometime, these are rumored to be around $10 cheaper than the Nintendo ones.

peace all

p.s someone send me a Mii

Hi Monkychees,

It was like putting glasses on, ahehe I found some at EB in Maq centre, also Like i said we should see a fresh batch of 3rd party ones coming through.

Despite what other forumer's have said, imho it is really worth it. If you get one have a fiddle with all the settings and post your results too.

I got some from Dick Smith in Warringah last week and I am running it through a projector onto a 100" screen @ 480p, and the improvement is amazing.

Picture crisper, colours brighter, less flicker, like watching an animated dvd movie.

Indeed, there is a very marked improvement, lets you appreciate just how good the graphics are for such a little console.
