SRGilbert Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hey all, I'm looking for a set of Gamecube component cables to connect to an HDTV. Would rather not spend a fortune, but I might be willing to do a trade. Let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanhq Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Hey all, I'm looking for a set of Gamecube component cables to connect to an HDTV. Would rather not spend a fortune, but I might be willing to do a trade. Let me know! I've been looking for one of these for over three years now. If you come across two, let me know... hehe... one for you and one for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanallan Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Jeez, those things are expensive. Is that a standard jack on the gamecube? If it is, I'll make a few myself. ??? Not real familiar with high-tech or kinda new audio visual stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not real familiar with high-tech or kinda new audio visual stuff. It actually works very odd. The cable has a chip in it that converts the gamecubes digital signal into component. You can't make one. A cheap solution is to purchase a japanese d connector. It's like a little HDMI-ish jack, but instead of hdmi, it's component. You can just lop off the end, look up the pinout, and wire it to RCA jacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanallan Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Ah well. I'm all for making my own cables. I ought to stop being lazy and make my 8-bitters the cables they need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanhq Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 (edited) Jeez, those things are expensive. Is that a standard jack on the gamecube? If it is, I'll make a few myself. The early GameCubes have a digital AV out and an analog AV out on the back. The digital AV out cable is the one that's hard to find.

seanhq Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Here is a high-resolution picture showing the back of my GameCube so you can see what the jack looks like (digital on the left). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathanallan Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 If anyone has a dog/cat/vacuum cleaner chewed one, I'd be interested in parts so I can figure out how to make my own. I'd like to see that chip in there; I have a component out GC also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
