Enjoy Wii on an HDTV

After reading all the dismal reviews for third party component cablesI decided I wouldn't take chances with my Wii and just go for theofficial Nintendo brand one. The major downside is that this thing costs$30! But its worth every cent
because I've never had problems with official Nintendo products. All thecables still work from my old systems like N64 and Gameboy.

Basically when you play Wii on an HDTV with the standard cables you getwith the console, colors are slightly faded, the picture quality is abit fuzzy.. Not really to totally ruin the picture, but you knowimmediately that its not fully
clear and crisp.

So what's the verdict? How does my Wii look now that its equipped for anHDTV? Well its brighter. Stronger colors. No more slight blurriness.Was it worth $30? Not really considering Wii games aren't even made withHD TVs in mind. But why buy a cheaper 3rd party one that'll need to bereplaced after a few months? You'll probably end up spending more in thelong run with cheaper brands. I wish they'd consider reducing the pricea little though.

I'm satisfied with the picture quality however I was watching videosthrough Wii's Nintendo Channel but even at "high" quality it stilldidn't seem that good - but that's not the fault of these cables, Iguess Nintendo just
doesn't make their vids in HD. So just stating that now incase you thinkthe vids are going to be crystal clear and all. Aside from more vibrantcolors, all this will do is basically give you a clear standarddef-type visual experience except on an HDTV. Younger players probablywon't care so this seems like a luxury item for older players who arepicky about image quality.
