Hardware Any difference between Nintendo component cable and no names

[bad_freddy]

As topic title says I'd like to know if there is any difference in terms of on-screen graphics / quality between the original Nintendo component cable and others that are way cheaper?
Here an original Ninty cable cost about 30 euro but as I can see, DX has cables with about 5-8 euro. Will they be the same?

With cheaper cables you may get some ghosting, but other than that, I personally never noticed any difference from my cheap like $4 PS3 component cables from eBay and some HDMI cables.. Since it'll be on the Wii it'll probably not be noticeable if there is a difference.

Why not? Ive got mine working fine.


And the difference between the official Nintendo products and the cheaper ones is build quality.

Yeah, really weird issue that HDD-component cable...
I don't care about build quality so much, I just want to know if everything (game graphics etc.) will be the same or not.

I have some cheap component cables that work just fine, no ghosting or anything. Some of them have been known to do that, so try and read up about them first.

Nothing but the price.

I build a self-made component cable for my old XBOX1 some time from the original composite cable (switching teh wires at the plug and adding to cables for sound), I used very crappy cables and I can run the box at 1080i (XBMC supports this) and there never was ghosting. So I doubt there will be quality issues.

from my experince in cheap AV cables are the wires tend to break apart if you put too much stress on it, like twisting and bending repeatedly. Since the wires are made with less strands and thiner than the original. so as long as you don't put too mush stress on the wires and you just leave you wii connected to you tv and not packing it and unpacking it or bringing it to diffrent houses that often then your fine with those
