  I had a pair of Monster Wii cables before my dog chewed through them. I decided to give these inexpensive cables a try and they delivered the EXACT same picture on my LCD HDTV. There was NO DIFFERENCE between the two. Save some cash and get these. I highly recommend them.

  I have my Wii connected to a 52″ 1080P LCD TV. Although the Wii does not put out an actual HD signal, The picture quality with this cord is very good.

  I bought this to play Super Mario Galaxy on my 32″ 720p HDTV. The difference over composite is noticeable, but not by much. This is due to the fact that the video is being output in 480p over 480i, as opposed to 1080p over 480i. This is not the cable’s fault, though, but it is something for the buyer to keep in mind.

  For the quality/build of this product vs its price I HIGHLY recommend it. It is a great value and the output is identical to the Official cables offered by Nintendo. I would say to buy these IF AND ONLY IF you really want to upgrade. I am glad that I did but if you were to use composite it wouldn’t be so horrible.

  As for the reviews about the jaggedness, I have to say that what they say is true, but they greatly exaggerate the noticeability (I know, that’s not a word). Again, you’re dealing with a system that was designed for output below true High Definition so the games were designed to be run in this lower format. The fact that jagged edges appear is just a small consequence of this. However, from my experiences I can say that the edges to not detract from the games whatsoever and are only noticeable when looking for them.

  So to recap, this product works just as well as the Official product. However, overall the idea of component Wii cables is something that is more of a novelty than a true necessity. With that in mind, the price and quality of this product are tough to match, so based on this I recommend this product to anyone who has a Wii and an HDTV.

  I got these cables recently. I figured for a few dollars, it was worth it to see the increase in composite to component cables. The increase was worth this price in my opinion, however, I would be upset had I paid $20-$30-$40 for component cables in general to see only a small increase.

  Pros:
  Slight visible increase over stock composite cables in my opinion.

  Cons:
  These cables are shorter than the stock ones. They appear to be closer to 4ft maybe instead of the 6ft that the stock ones are.
  Color is dark grey instead of the Wii White.

  Overall:
  Definately a recommended buy for this cheap of a price if you are looking for component cables.

  I have a beautiful HDTV that goes up to 1080i…
  
  at no point with our current games could I tell any sort of difference between with the cable and without. Perhaps if there are games with better graphics it might make a difference? With the wii play and a few other simple games that we have there was no difference whatsoever.
