    :thumbsup: Picked them up used at my local GameCrazy for 2 bucks!!! Nintendo brand and spanking new, looks like they were never even used lol.

    I cant wait to try out Zelda with them as im playing through it for the first time now.

    Anyway I notice they dont have audio connections on them. Just the 3 video connectors? How can I get audio out of the cube when using these? Must I also hook up composite and just use the audio jacks from them?

    Any help is appricated. Thanks!

    Use the L+R audio connectors from the standard A/V cable in conjunction with the component cables. DO NOT USE THE YELLOW COMPOSITE CABLE. :)

    Yeah, what 1080Peter said. I used a twist tie at both ends and the middle to kind of make it one neater cable. However, try using the composite cable as well and switching back and forth to see what looks better. To be honest, I was really dissapointed when I first got my component cable and switched back and forth with the remote, only to realize that the RE remake looked a whole lot better on my tv with the composite. Obviously this won't apply to progressive games though

    Yeah I gave it a try. Im playing Zelda TP right now and I think it looks much better with the new cables. Im not saying they all will, but so far Zelda is better. It was only 2 bucks anyway lol, cant beat that. :thumbsup:

    actually, games like Super Smash Bros. Melee look fantastic on progressive. Hook it up, fire the game, and turn of de-flicker for extra crisp graphics:D
