Does what it, says it does

A cheap and working alternative to expensive named brand hd component cables. Its a steal and looks lovely on my tv. Great Product!
Works, but cannot ever get 480p out of it 
2008-08-15
Cable works with my Wii and my Sony Bravia, but I cannot get anything to come out at 480p, it always displays at 480i. Even though my menu settings in the Wii are for 480p, it just never seems to transmit that...or at least that is what my TV is reporting. I did read some other reviews where other people had this same problem and said it was the cable. I've also read where that somehow the cable tells the Wii that it is capable of carrying 480p and to "unlock" tha feature. I don't know if this is true or not. I guess I could do a test with the original cable that came with the Wii for I have yet to take that out of the packaging.
Regardless, the cable works with my Wii, just not as advertised. I also agree with other reviewers where they complain that the cable end is "bundled" and difficult to split off is you have the video part going into your TV and you want the audio part to go into your AV receiver. I had to get some additional cables at Radio Shack in order to make that happen.
Nothing wrong with it, just not too impressed 
2008-08-13
I wasn't expecting too much when I found out the Wii itself is limited to 480p. I wasn't disappointed. Looks the same to me, some people swear it's sharper, causing the curved objects to have more of a jagged edge, but I don't think that's true. It may also be that I can't tell. Overall, I would say to get this cable only if you are running short on composite inputs on your TV.
Works but... 2008-07-14
The difference between component and composite is definitely noticeable on HD screens and this cable does it's job. But, it's kinda flimsy and I had to kind of bend the wires and twist the connectors sometimes to get the right colors to come out on the tv.
Improvement over standard cables 2008-06-09
It's only 480p but it does sharpen the picture on my hdtv(Samsung ln46a550). I belive it's worth it.
Madcatz Cable is Great! 2008-06-04
I just got the Madcatz Component cable for my Wii and it works great. It definitely improved the quality of the graphics on my Wii and Sony Bigscreen HD TV. It even has gold plated connectors which kind of surprised me for the price. It is at least $10 less than the Nintendo cable and definitely works just as good. It is a great deal for the money. It is clearly well made and sturdy. The nearly 10 foot length is a big help too. All in all, a worthwhile investment if you have an HD TV to plug into.
Cable Definitely Performs 2008-05-28
The component cable defintely makes a difference over the composite cable.
The quality of the cable is good. It could be of heavier thickness for durability, but my cable never moves, so I am satisfied with it.
The only downside is that two of the plugs have red bands; one for audio and one for video. You have to differentiate the two by relative location.
It actually work so go ahead and buy it. 2008-05-19
I plugged it in and it worked with no problem. My kids noticed that on Super Mario Brothers that they could see additional detail on the turtle's shell so that was cool.
Improved picture 2008-05-17
Connected my Wii to my Samsung 40" LCD HDTV and was well pleased at picture. Excellent cables at inexpensive price.
Good Deal 2008-05-15
This is way cheaper than the first-party cable and I can't see how the quality would be any different. Good buy.
