gamecube component cables

^^^ It's sad that nobody ever made use of the GC's digital output.  It's effin' native, so it seems like a no-brainer.  Then again, I'm no electrical or computer engineer, so I have no idea how much work and money it would take to make use of that signal ???

Yeah, I have one of those somewhere here.  I don't think I've ever used it, but I'll see if I can dig it up.  I recall it being clear...

Hmm, that might explain why I'm having a hard time finding it on US sites.

Ok i got the GC and the components do not work, as suspected. The cables did fit fine in my ps2 slim as well so i really dont know what these are for. The monster s video i have does work fine and from what ive read is really close to component quality but obviously not quite there. It makes a huge difference over rca composite though. Just fyi     :)
