Retro-Bit Retro Prism Component Cable for Gamecube

Worked fine an image looked great. Remember to hold B on controller1 when booting your Gamecube so it knows to load into progressive scan mode. I was not able to get an image in default interlaced mode with this cable, though my sample size of monitors was 1. Your mileage may vary.

My cables came packaged neatly in a translucent reflective bag. The quality of the material is very solidly built and fits in the GCN port very snugly and secure and keep in mind also, you will need a gen 1 GameCube that has the digital AV out port. The picture on games that support 480p:(progressive scan) you will notice that visual difference on your modern tv display. The two biggest being draw-distance clarity and visual sharpness of letters and characters blurriness is completely removed compared to using the stock cables. on the ones that do not support 480p but regular 480i (interlaced), the image quality is still improved mostly letters and menus seem more legible to read; however, the game's will seem unpolished compared to the latter. This isn't the cables fault but the game(s) on GCN that do not support the progressive scan resolution. The audio on my set of cables seems to be working as intended for me; however, be aware others have had problems such as incorrect audio timing where the sound seems to be offset to what you see happening on the screen or incorrectly color swapped plugs where ones supposed to be the other plug. luckily i have not come across these issues with my set of cables, but will repost if i do. and could just be me but i also felt that input latency was improved a lot over stock cables If you were to use these in combination some sort of upscaler its another leap in quality entirely, but on their own they still really good. highly recommend.

The media could not be loaded. Video and sound is accurate. Very clean. Some youtubers would say u should pair it with an upscaler and it's better. I say no because of the type of t.v. I ran it on and it's video features.2017 "37 Hisense 4k smart/ 5 HDMI ports 3 USB's and RGB ports. They don't makes these tv's with all those connections anymore it's a must keep.

The picture quality from the cable looks fantastic! Unfortunately, the audio from the cable is glitchy and has problems with desync and whatnot. However, I was able to fix issue this by using a separate cable for audio via the av multi out port and the setup works great!

I was skeptical about a $60 for a cord from the last millennium and all, but this thing delivers. No issue at all with my modded ngc. Beautiful crystal clear output. For my exact setup, this cord is GG. (sony xbr-910) My only gripe is that the cord goes from robust, flexible 6mm rubber to flimsy 1.5mm wire for the last 100mm to the leads. Doesn't matter at all, just a nitpick.9/10 great.

Seems hit or miss with these. I have a confirmed working GameCube DOL-001 with the digital out as well as a confirmed working CRT with component inputs.I ordered the first one and it didn’t output any video or audio at all. I heard there can be duds with these so I returned it and requested a replacement. The second one didn’t work either. I even triggered the various resets with the controller. The quality assurance on these are trash. Don’t waste your time.

At first I was on the fence about ordering these component cables for the price but I ended up deciding to go with it. I’m currently using a Retrotink 4k going into an OLED tv. What a difference these component cables made over the composite cables. The picture looks great, the colors look amazing, I might even argue that this looks better than using a CRT. If you have a decent setup with an upscaler I would say go ahead and order these cables.If you have a CRT tv in good working order you may not benefit a whole lot from switching to an hdtv without a good upscaler

This component cable works well with my GameCube. The quality of the cable feels good and the image quality is what you'd expect, 480i for most games, but 480p for those that support it.
