For less than $13, it was definitely worth the money.Be advised that the cable only works with one console at a time. The Mad Catz Universal HD Component cable works great for my PS2 and Wii (not at the same time). For PS2, Rockband and GH: World Tour look worlds better now on my HD LCD TV. The packaging states so in the fine print. With both my systems plugged in at the same time, the PS2 works great, but no audio for the Wii.Remember to: Slide the switch from TV to HDTV, and to optimize your PS2 (turn on your PS2 without a disk).
Also to say "another cheap cable etc." We know it's a cheap cable. First of all the description doesn't say anything about game cube or anything besides ps2/3, 360, and wii. It's $12. Also to make it work you have to set up your systems to output in the y pb pr format, in my case the ps2, or it wont work right. Works great, no problems at all. You get what you pay for. Why don't you give a review based on the product, not amazon, your mail man, or your own ignorance.
We are unable to get Sound on the Wii while the Xbox is plugged in (but powered off). To resolve this we need to unplug the Xbox. When they work the cables are fine but the fact that they don't 'automatically' work when we switch between consols prevents this from being a solution we can really be happy with. Will update if I can get the sound working.
Make sure the switch on your component cable is set to hdtv. Here's the fix:If you have a ps2 connect it at the same time as your wii. When I tried the component cables I had to choose between black and white output on my Wii (the switch on this cable set to hdtv) or a very fuzzy color image (cable switch set to tv). Next turn on your wii and then turn off your ps2. Next go into system configuration on your ps2 and set component video out to Y Cb/Pb Cr/Pr. At this point you'll see that the component cable works just fine. You can disconnect the ps2 now and this fix seems permanent. Good luck.4 stars to this product for having to put in research to make it work properly, although maybe part of the blame is Nintendo's
This product worked perfectly for my PS3 and Wii. Unfortunately you cannot have both plugged in at the same time so you still have to do some swapping.The reason I am rating this low is because the quality is bad. A little pin or something broke off inside the ps3 wire and i can no longer plug it into my ps3. The metal plug that goes into the ps3 is now loose and gets pushed down inside the plastic outer casing.Could be a flaw in just mine, but the having to swap could have easily caused this issue.In conclusion, works fine, until it breaks.
