S-Video Cable for GameCube

Step Up to Better Picture with High Resolution, Low Loss Monster S-Video
You’re a first-tier gamer so why settle for a second-tier picture? S-Video technology far exceeds standard RCA composite video cables found in the box, delivering the full GAMECUBE gaming experience you demand. Now play with higher resolution, increased detail, and more vivid colors, thanks to Monster’s advanced GameLink 300 GC S-Video cables.

Enjoy a Sharper Picture and Brighter, Richer Color with Monster S-Video
The best way to ensure your TV displays all of GAMECUBE’s outstanding graphics is by using Monster’s advanced S-Video cable technology. S-Video is the preferred high-performance connection because it sends the video signal in separate Chrominance (color) and Luminance (brightness) channels. The result? A brighter picture both sharper and richer in color. It also cleans up "dot crawl"–that annoying flickering along object edges. GameLink 300 uses advanced technologies like injected nitrogen gas to ensure the best S-Video signal possible.

Monster’s Advanced Audio Technology Maximizes the Full Sonic Performance of Your GAMECUBE
Your GAMECUBE is superior when it comes to audio quality. GameLink 300 GC maximizes that sonic performance so all 64 simultaneous channels come through loud and clear. In fact, very loud and clear. With GameLink 300 GC’s patented electronic technologies like Bandwidth Balanced multiple-gauge wire networks and DoubleHelix construction, you always enjoy the fuller, richer audio effects that the GAMECUBE can deliver.

Maximize Your Gaming Investment
You’ve already invested in a superior video game system. So why not play with the best picture and sound possible? With GameLink 300 GC, you’ll experience all the thrill and performance your GAMECUBE was designed to deliver.

5.0 out of 5 stars S Video is good, March 10, 2004

This review is from: Monster Cable GCGL300 SV-10 GameCube S-Video A/V Cable (10 Feet) (Personal Computers)

I am mostly writing this to correct a comment made in the previous review. S-Video does not enable progressive scan output, only component video allows that. The Gamecube component video cable is only available through nintendo's website. Aside from that, this is the best way to hook up your gamecube!

This review is from: Monster Cable GCGL300 SV-10 GameCube S-Video A/V Cable (10 Feet) (Personal Computers)

I recently bought this S-video cable more out of a desire to enhance the visual quality of my older Nintendo 64 rather than having anything to do with my Nintendo Gamecube. I happen to own a high definition TV and could easily purchase high def component cables for progressive scan compatable Gamecube titles. This review was written with Nintendo 64 owners in mind, who are spoiled by next generation picture clarity and cannot bare to suffer for blurry colors, and blocky or choppy environments. I have to say that it is difficult to find a set of cables which support the Nintendo 64 and alter the quality of the overall picture in any way that will make a spectacular difference. Buying high def component cables tailor made for Gamecube might seem reasonable enough considering that most of the cables on the market that fit Gamecube also fit the Nintendo 64. But the end results are negligable when you consider the cost of those cords, then compare them to a set of these video-S monster cables. The difference is minimal at best. From what I have seen, these monster cables cost less than high def component cables yet offer an equaled quality or even better. The Nintendo 64 hardware and or software really don't support high definiton anyways. You CAN however improve the color and texture quality of your Nintendo 64 in two ways.

1) buy these monster cables for Gamecube. They are relatively cheap, and are more reliable with most television models than some 3rd party cables. They are a lengthy 10 feet and the cords are very thick and durable. They are quality I assure you.

2)Make sure to purchase a Nintendo 64 expansion pak. The effectiveness of the cords alone will only carry so far, the Nintendo 64 hardware is partially to blame for it's lackluster visual details.

...So buy the expansion pak and these cords and you will certainly view the difference.

These are the best S-video cables you can get for the n64, snes, or gamecube. They are very well insulated compared to other cheaper ones. They also have great connections and wont come loose. I'm just glad I found this since I don't believe they make these anymore.
