FOUND-Gamecube component cables
Does anyone have the HD component cables for the gamecube or have a source for them? Nintendo has them on backorder and I'd really like to pick some up. Email me if you have some or know where to get them, thanks.
UPDATE:
Finally found some. I ordered them online a couple of days ago and they shipped them today. The price was pretty close to retail and they are in stock. Just thought I'd pass it along:

Let me know if you find this or find where to get them. I've been looking for this for a while without much luck. I have a friend who bought a set off ebay, but I haven't check that recently and when I did, I didn't find them. I also heard that they were available through Nintendo but something about them not making them anymore.
Good luck

heh.. they do have them on ebay... but I'm not payin those prices... they look like they are goind for around $50-70. When you are payin $99 for the cube/controller/1 game, that much for a cable seems silly.

Pardon my ignorance, but why not just use the SVID cable? CG can't do 16:9 anyway, right? Is the picture really that much better with the component cables??? If so, I gotta get me one too!

The GC doesn't support 1080i does it? Even on XBox, the 1080i games (Dragon Slayer 3D) for example aren't that impressive. High res, but low poly count so it effectively looks very bland.

somewhere I read that the component allows for 60 fps over the current 30fps, meaning it might look sharper. My next tv is gonna have to have at least 3 component ins then!!!
