AV cables poor quality

Post by MichelKesin » Sat Jun 19, 2021 9:52 am

When I bought my GameCube it didnt come whit any cables so I bought third party ones. They are all very cheaply made but I need replacement for the av cables because they are outputting poor quality image. Is there any other good av cables?

Does your GameCube come with the Digital Port?
If yes, you can pickup any of the various GCVideo devices in the market such as the Carby or Prism or GCHD

If you have a digital display (pixel based), the digital AV options are probably the best, you have the GCPlug that is the cheapest. Otherwise, if you use a scan-based display (CRT) you may better go for a contemporary AV cable, s-video or RGB based on your console region, there are modern high quality ones too, unless your CRT supports 480p, there you may prefer a digital option.

carby clones are on sale on aliexpress now for about 42 eur, almost the price of a GCPlug :) i'd grab one of those while the deal lasts, they usually go for around 60 on ali, or 70 on amazon :)
that will set you up for using a modern tv or monitor

To be honest, original Carby's aren't that much more expensive and you'd support the actual person behind developing/maintaining them.
