DaveL Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Meritline.com has the Wii Component Cable for $8.99 with free standard shipping! This is a great deal considering Best Buy and Circuit City sell 'em for $29.99. In researching Meritline.com they seem to be a good merchant, just sometimes slow to ship. I went ahead and ordered one for myself. To play Wii in 480p isn't worth $30 but I am willing to pay $9! Thought I would pass it on to all you other Wii owners. http://www.meritline.com/480-p-hd-component-cable.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripn Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Thank you DaveL, Yes $9 seems worth it. Just as a sidenote, my mcafee site advisor warned me about Meritline...basically a few warnings about giving them your email address...they give it out. Use a bulk email for them, or just leave the email address out of your order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveL Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 I used Google Checkout! :) Allowed me not to give them my email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civicracinggirl7 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 For those that have it, is there really any difference (between the component and a/v)? EDIT: This looks like the iMax Wii component cables that you can get from Amazon's Marketplace for ~$6.41 shipped (lowest price): http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000M5ZIVY/ref=dp_olp_0/104-9925446-4435969?ie=UTF8&qid=1177436196&sr=8-4&condition=all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripn Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Yes, the cable I bought from Meritline.com does look just like the picture on Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicracinggirl7 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Yes, the cable I bought from Meritline.com does look just like the picture on Amazon.I went ahead and ordered the Amazon one yesterday. For $6.41, I'll leave that one connected at home and use the a/v cable for when I transport the Wii to someone else's house... which will save me from having to keep the a/v cables plugged into the front of the tv at home and make it look a little nicer lol. :) Also, if anyone else is wondering if there is a difference, I found the following page that has mouse-over images showing the difference. I have 3 of the 4 games pictured, so it gave me a better idea. :) http://www.gamespot.com/features/6162297/p-2.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveL Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 I am doing the same thing....using the component at home and the A/V that came with the Wii for travel. There is a slight difference, worth it for $8, not $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
