Always liked the look of Nights into Dreams, but never bought a Saturn.

I was given this Gamecube HDMI adapter by a friend today.  Apparently he was even given it by someone else after they received it as a "review copy" by the company.  My buddy couldn't use it because his GC lacks the digital out.  He offered it for free, but I gave him a gold N64 controller for it. (still a steal on my end)
I already have the GC component cables, but I am eager to see how this thing does.  I've heard these aren't as smooth as the component cables, but my main living room TV doesn't have any inputs but HDMI.  Could be nice to play Metroid Prime or Eternal Darkness on a 65" screen instead of the 32" I keep for non HDMI systems. Plus I really like the little box it came in  :D

I've watched a few reviews of this.Looks like a solid product, just a tad expensive at $150!

Let's hope this opens the doors for an N64 HDMI Adapter *Fingers Crossed*

Bought a few eBay lots.   3 dreamcasts for repair for about $30, plus some SFC carts and a whole whack of controllers and cables.

On a side note, has anyone ever tried getting smoke damage out of a white console? I think the middle one was involved in a fire

Don't listen to Arseen.  That is a great adapter that you should use forever.  Now your old component cables are officially obsolete and garbage.  You can send those to me for proper disposal.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

The really dirty one smells a bit like smoke, but honestly not as bad as I expected.  The other kinda dirty one smells like an old automotive repair shop phone.

That's very specific.  :P
