    So, the only available locally in Greece component switchbox is the Dragon Component Multiselector

    http://www.goldenshop.com.hk/AI-trad/Misc_htm/m_dragcselect.htm

    I want to connect a PS2, a Xbox and a Wii.

    Is this unit any good? Also is there a schematic to do one on my own? Finally if I use two rca switchers, one for the three video channels and one for the two audio, can I achieve the same thing? I am asking because there are more options in rca switchers locally than component.

    I've seen people use the Composite video and L/R audio manual RCA switchboxes for this so yeah they would work. Not sure about automatic ones though.

    Digging little more I found that I can buy the XCM multi component cable v3, compatible with PS2/PS3,Wii,Xbox,Xbox360 and psp. The benefits of this cable is that I don't have to buy component cables for the ps2 and xbox. Also it has a hard switch on it so no automatic crap that might cause problems if I have connected all consoles at once (but not powered). I might buy this, any opinions on the XCM cable would be nice.

    you could use a mechanical VGA switcher and make some DB-HD15 breakouts for it
