Getting a Wii over the holiday season was one of the highlights of 2009. Finding out that its not HD compatible was surprising, you figure that Nintendo would be defiantly have this aspect in their “cutting edge” Wii system, well they don’t. Luckly a good friend recommended these component cables, and since I have started the epic Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess I have to play in the best resolution as possible.

So I ordered these component cables. Unlike the 3 pronged red yellow and white standard RCA cables and the single awesomeness of HDMI cable this component cable has 5 prongs: blue, green, orange white and red. There are 2 inputs for these “ED Component Cables” in the back of my HD Sony. So I turned on my Wii and did a little test, and the results were good. One could see the difference when the ED component cables are hooked up to the flat screen versus the standard bullshit that Nintendo provides you with. The overall resolution down to the pixels were much sharper, the colors were more vibrant and didn’t seem as pastel like when the RCA cables are hooked up. I think in the end after shipping, which by the was extremely fast, the cost a total of around $7-$9 clams. A cheap but nessasarry upgrade when living in a HD world baby.

Big ups to Josh in bean town for finding and forwarding me this information.
