4 of 5 Does the job! Friday, June 26, 2009 Adam from Huntersville, NC
I is easy to hook up, and did make a difference in the quality of the picture from the Nintendo wii. The ends of the cable feel a bit cheap but what do you expect for $7.00? The tips are gold plated or a least seem to be. All in all the cable works great and is a great value a most buy for any Nintendo wii owner! Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Wii Graphics Upgrade on the Cheap! Saturday, October 11, 2008 A Customer from Springfield, VA
Get this cable--it provides a noticeable improvement in Wii graphics compared with the standard composite cable, when used with a HD television. I can't see paying three or four times as much for the name-brand. Great value, and the seller shipped it quickly. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Works like a charm Wednesday, October 01, 2008 A Customer from Stafford, VA
Economy grade cables, but they are doing fine on my Wii setup. I didn't see a huge improvement in the image with the component cables, but that is probably due to the Wii's resolution, not the cables. These are a great value, and I don't believe any more expensive cables would work any better. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Great Product Thursday, August 14, 2008 A Customer from River Edge, NJ
For $6 it's hard to find any faults with this product. I used it on my new 46"LCD TV. The resolution is real crisp. It's actually almost too sharp for some graphics. You can't go wrong with this purchase. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 It Works Wednesday, August 06, 2008 Michael from Chicago, IL
What is there to say... it's a cable. Honestly though, you can't beat the price and it works great. I almost paid $25+ for a comparable cable at a store - I'm glad I got it here.
As for the product... it works. No issues. No complaints. Truly plug-and-play.
Does it make a difference / can you see it? YES. In games with motion (Guitar Hero, Rock Band, etc.) it makes a noticeable difference in clarity. Limited motion games look better, but if you are playing, you probably won't notice, but those watching may see it.
In the end, just get it. It is worth getting, especially at this price. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Product works fine Saturday, May 31, 2008 A Customer from NY, NY
The product was delivered in a bubble rapped envelop and was held in a plastic bag. The cables were undamaged through shipment and was easy to open. The part of the cable you need to insert into the Wii was a little hard to push in and push out without some additional force. However, once the cables were connected to the TV, the picture quality improved a nice amount from a regular AV input. The colors were a little more defined and there was less blur around the edges. This basically changes your resolution from 480i to 480p. Be aware that you might need to change either the setting on you Wii or the settings on your TV for the cables to work or else it might just appear in black and white. I recommend this product for anyone with a widescreen TV and a component input. Overall, I am happy with the product and it's price. Was this review helpful?
2 of 3 customers found this review helpful. 2 of 5 Works, but is spotty. Wednesday, May 28, 2008 A Customer from Irvine, CA
The super low price baited me. It's fine as a backup cable, but I frequently get blurred areas on the screen when using this cable. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great Deal, Get What You Pay For which was Almost Thursday, May 22, 2008 Henry from Oakland, CA
Look, it doesn't cost much compared to retail stores which raises suspicions. I would have given performance for the product less, but Nintendo did not invest much in terms of picture quality so you can't expect component cables to do much for a system that doesn't have the fundamentals to begin with. For $14 dollars, I got myself and my brother a set of these cables which sharpened the picture quality (PQ) of the Wii and its games. We both have LCD HDTV's (me a Toshiba and my brother a Samsung). I wish it were more dramatic (PQ), but again the goal of the Wii was functionality over PQ. With that said, I spent $14 on 2 sets of cables which is still less considering I never left the house and paid gas or taxes. Thanks Buy.com. I won't say I'm dedicated or faithful, but you have certainly gotten my attention and future consideration for shopping options online. Was this review helpful?
1 of 1 customers found this review helpful. 5 of 5 Priced right Wednesday, May 07, 2008 A Customer from Round Rock, TX
It's cheap and gets the job done. There's no reason to pay twice the amount for the more expensive brand name ones, which want people to believe that their cable will yield better image quality, they won't (I'm a EE, so they won't fool me). The connectors on the cable seem to be secure and sturdy so I'm not worried about that failing, although I don't plan on hooking and un-hooking the cable often anyway. I and two of my friends got this and we all have no complaints about it. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Works for me, didn't pay much for it either Wednesday, April 23, 2008 A Customer from Mountain View, CA
Get this item, it's affordable, reliable and you will get your money's worth. Material is sturdy and not cheap at all. So far works for me. Don't spend twice as much for the same quality as this cable would offer. Use the money to buy some other goodies on this site. Was this review helpful?
1 of 1 customers found this review helpful. 5 of 5 Amazing value Tuesday, April 22, 2008 A Customer from Austin, TX
When I moved the Wii to my front projector system, the image quality was not that great - after upgrading to this cable, the images are much more crisp! Low price and free shipping make this a must have for any Wii owner! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Good Deal Tuesday, April 01, 2008 duwady from Lorton, VA
I bought this when the price was $ 1.12, and was sceptical about the performance. However, was pleasantly surprised to see such a marked improvement on the visual. I play Zelda a lot, and am extremely satisfied with this.
As usual, Buy.com was good in delivering on time. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 so cheap, works great Wednesday, March 19, 2008 Kevin from Ohskosh, WI
Just got this cable to make Super Mario Galaxy look a little better on my 1080p HDTV.
Now the Wii is 480p, not impressive on the tv but a lot better than before with just the yellow rca cable for video - colors are a little brighter and the picture is more sharp.
-- unbeatable price for this product Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Works Great! Tuesday, March 11, 2008 Theresa52970 from Orland Park, IL
Just hooked up this new cable to our Wii system and our 52" LCD TV. Improved the picture quality. Good cable for a great price! Works just as well as the more expensive ones. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Good for the price Thursday, February 21, 2008 sam from California
I cant beleive how inexpensive this cable is. I am satisfied. Good quality, works great. Why would you want to spend 15-27 dollars on this when this one was roughly 7 dollars with shipping. :) Was this review helpful?
