anyone used 3rd party component cables?
 

i have always used 1st party for systems, 360 and gamecube, and i want to get some for the wii. the official ones from intendo come out end of jan and are $30, but madcatz has some for $20 which is available now. they are also the ones that eb are selling for $50 but at madcatz's website they're $20 :wtf: . just curious, that is all.

Depends on if you can wait I suppose. I don't know about quality, but personally I'd wait for the official ones.

yeah i think i will....i just hope they sell them in stores and not just online like the gc ones

Cables are cables, there's almost no difference between official and 3rd party.

Some companies are crap. Just find a reliable brand and give it a go.

As component is a digital signal, there is virtually no noticable difference between the shit cables and good cables picture quality wise. The only part you may notice is audio quality.
