4 out of 5 stars Definitely an Improvement   November 10, 2009

While Nintendo has yet to make the leap into the modern HD market, they are at least taking steps in the right direction. The cable performs well and there is a notable increase in clarity and sharpness of image. However, I myself had a bit of an ordeal in the set-up and use of this product. The problem was that you have to manually switch from 480i to 480p in the Wii menu; the console will not automatically switch from one to the other if you simply change the cord. The problem with this is you can't make the switch while still using the composite cable, you have to be using the component. As such, if you have to switch it manually... when you boot up the console while using the the component cable for the first time, there is no image on the screen. I found myself switching back and forth between cables trying to memorized the process to make the manual switch, no easy task I assure you, especially with motion sensitive controls. After roughly 20 minutes of blind pointing and clicking, I finally managed to make the switch. As previously stated, the difference is clearly noticeable. Hopefully I'm one of few who have had this problem, and I wouldn't be surprised to learn that there was an obvious detour that I somehow managed to overlook. On the other hand... quite a design flaw if that happens to be the case for all.


4 out of 5 stars Got rid of one AV   November 8, 2009

These cables do there job. I have have noticed some improvement in color, I have only played a few games some of the games look much better while others only have slight improvement. The best thing is that I have one less AV to plug in. Most new TV's, typically have one AV and one component, and of course some HDMI's so I am happy I dont have to switch as many cables.

5 out of 5 stars Wii Component Cable - J. Escobar   October 28, 2009

Even if the Wii console is the weakest of the actual generation of consoles, 480p mode makes a very noticeable difference. This cable is very well made and is the best of the available options for this console.

If you didn't know, this cable is the only way to activate 480 Progressive Scan Mode or 480P. For large CRT or LCD sets this mode is a MUST BUY. This cable outputs a much cleaner signal that results in less artifact and more accurate color, also increases the scan lines of the signal, doubling the quality of the signal.

Anybody will notice the improvement, even on GAMECUBE software the improvement is massive. 100% recommended.
