I'm not calling you a liar, but I don't believe this either! Please somebody clear this up by showing some pics.

According to Monster's site, as of today, there have an s-video and a composite cable for the Cube. The only component gaming cables they have are for the Xbox, PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Besides the official one, the only thing that comes close is the multi-component cable for 3 different systems, but the Cube part is actually just composite or s-video.

I knew they made ol'yellow and s-vid but I coulda sworn they did component as well. That was word of mouth info however, I now presume that to be inaccurate. Pardon~ :oops:

Actually, I have the monster brand for Xbox and PS2, but I don't think they ever came out for Gamecube other than S-VIDEO. I could be wrong though.

My Gamecube component is from Nintendo and was pricey from what I recall. I remember thinking:"I can use this on the Wii when it comes out, since they are usually consistent with cables console to console" Ya, thanks Nintendo! :)

Sadly, I still don't have an HDTV yet, however the components definitely are cleaner than even S-Video on my 27 inch Sony.

Of course he's lying. He's 14... Cmon. I don't think i've ever read an ounce of truth come from this child's keyboard. Just look at his last posts. He somehow got Resistance:FOM from a game shop for free because they didn't have it in their inventory. Puh-lease? First saying he has a xx inch screen then backtracking saying he has a 60 inch screen. Then, oh wait, it's his dads. Yeah ok.

This coming from the kid who said he was going to sell Sega their own IP back to them. *ahem* Saturn 2. :roll:

Cmon, this child is living in fantasy land.

One thousand pardons. I checked the site and appearantly its a repackaged used Nintendo cable. The whole company takes broken cables repackages used cables (power, video etc) for video game consoles after they fix them when they are broken =\. Boy do I feel like a complete dumb@$$ :oops: . And yes Gamestop gave me Resistance for free because it was in the PS2 section UNDER the "Under $9.99" cart (I saw the edge sticking out from under) so it didnt show up in there inventory thus they couldnt charge me. Go ask you local Gamestop and they will say that they cant charge you for something they dont technically have.

I would but Gamestop doesn't exist where I live. I'm still calling bullshit. Don't care what you say. You could show me 'proof' 'til you're blue in the face, I still won't believe you.

Then look up a Gamestop number on the site and call a random one.
