    Default Gamecube Component Cables....

    Where can I get these other than Nintendos store?

    That's about it.

    Trust me...I looked everywhere. I just went ahead and ordered mine from the Nintendo Store.

    There are a bunch on ebay right now, but they're fairly exspensive.

    ....at which point Nintendo's online store is just as cheap, and reliable

    I got mine from Nintendo direct, as well, but I believe there are multi-system cables that will do the Cube, as well as the PS2, I think.

    I've got a few sealed Nintendo brand ones that I was thinking about how I should sell them. I was thinking of putting them on ebay, but just PM me an offer or trade list if you like. Theres this one guy at the flea market I always go to that keeps getting them and I don't know where from, and he says he'll bring me some more this week.

    Exactly!
    I ask this: Can you really tell a difference in picture or sound when the component cables are plugged in, COMPARED to when they are NOT hooked up.
    I have also been thinking about getting a pair but don't know if it's even worth the bother??

    Depends on the TV. I noticed that the edges were smoother and the colors more vibrant. There might be a big difference in some cases, but it may take a discerning eye.

    It's more noticable on a bigger TV. I've got a 36" standard definition Sony WEGA and everything looks MUCH better via component, especially text. On the other hand, my 24" WEGA looks great just using S-Video.

    I'd definitely recommend it.

    Cool, thanks. I guess the bigger the tv, the more you can notice. I definately notice little things like that though, so I would really be able to tell.
