Official compnent cables worth it?

Do not get lower quality cables.

Lower quality cables = lower quality signal

The lowest you should go is the Nintendo branded ones, you can spend more if you want but since the Wii maxes out at 480p they're not needed. You never skimp on cables when you connect your components.

It's like the people who spend over half a grand on a receiver and then wonder why it never sounds good. Then you check what speaker wire they're using and it's as thin as dental floss. If they hooked it up with the right connections it would sound the way it's supposed to.

So much goes into cables from the connections to the shielding and 30 dollars isn't a lot to spend. You spend money on the TV, you spend money on the Wii but when it comes to the most important part of the setup you go cut rate? That just doesn't make sense.

doesn't have to be from nintendo. a component cable is basicly three composite cables that seperate red blue and luminance.

faily simple stuff.
