Nintendo Wii 3rd Party Component Cables

Ripped from the wallet...

Play Asia

edit: I've ordered 360 games from them before, pretty reliable. Shipping from Hong Kong did not take as long as I thought it would.

 
Haven't managed to find a Wii yet but considering how hard the component cables have been to find I went ahead and order them. Selected the cheapest shipping so only ended up being around 13 bucks which is probably cheaper than I could have found them locally anyway.

I did the same thing....I've got the games, I've got the cable... only thing I don't have is the console🙁
 
Just wait another week. A lot of 3rd parties will have them in stores.

I want an SVideo cable myself 🙁

The component cables are easy to get, you simply have to order direct from Nintendo at the Nintendo Online Store. The big box stores did not receive any component cables yet and are not scheduled to get any until sometime in January. It took 2 days for me to get mine after I ordered from Nintendo...
 
these component cables should be less than $4. Anything more is just a rip off. Esp what Nintendo is trying to charge us. It should've been included with the console.

Anyone receive these cables yet? I have heard they are military green colored as opposed to white.

Personally I don't care what color it is since I'm dying it black 😀

and gas should be .50 a gallon, and milk should be .10 a gallon, and bread should be a nickel, and I should be raped by a band of supermodels.

 
Got mine today. They are not camouflage-colored or anything weird, just a normal gray cable with RCA jacks on the ends. The RCA cables look a tad bit smaller than the the Nintendo brand cable, but just by a hair. I'll post back with results later tonight.
 
AHAHAHAHA DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys are going to laugh at me but i just bought the $50 madcatz component cables............DAMMIT id i would have known that they were back in stock at nintendo or for $10 i would have gotten them off of there instead of spending $50:|
 
The design of this cable kind of sucks. I want to plug it directly into my TV and run the audio to my receiver. Now I need to get an RCA coupler along with another RCA cable to extend it BACK to my receiver. GRRR! I liked the Gamecube's setup better where you had the component video separate from the audio.

Anywho, anyone get there's yet? How do you like them? I don't even have a Wii yet (I look a few times per week!) but I might pick these up now just to have them ready.

Thanks for posting this, OP!
