    Component cables...

    Right - Game have their own brand at 13 quid, the Nintendo original is 23 quid. Is this really as much as a no brainer as it looks?

    I'd go for the official one, for £16.99, from http://www.dvd.co.uk/product.asp?id=...L2&CID=0&CTY=8

    Ive got an even cheaper generic brand from an amazon seller and its been perfect...if you need to save a few quid for an extra game this isnt a disastrous place to do it.

    Good stuff. May it help provide you with many hours of jumping-about-like-a-loony type fun

    I wish I could make use of one myself, but I only have room for scart, so that's what I've got. No 480p goodness for me. It's still a huuuge step up from composite though, but that's no great surprise

    Mine cost me £5 posted from Ebay, from Hong Kong.. delivery took 4 days and the quality of the cable is suprisingly excellent.

    Picture quality on different cables will rarely differ, only the build quality of the cables themselves will be an issue.

    It could have been dealextreme dot com. That's where I got mine from (can't give URL as I am a new forum member). It takes about 10 days from order to delivery...but it's a good saving and nothing wrong with it. However, you need a PayPal account to pay.

    The SKU number is 4256 (works out about £3 delivered)
