Nintendo Gaming / Whats the best RGB Scart Cable?

« on: August 15, 2003, 02:32:03 AM »

 just got a Joytech RGB SCART Cable but the quality of the picture is the same as the composite cable supplied with the gamecube. I have a scart cable for my ps2 and it makes the picture alot sharper and enhances the colours etc, but the gamecube one doesnt, you can still alter the colour and contrast settings on your tv when playing, but on the ps2 one the colour and contrast are fixed and cant be changed. Does anyone know of a True RGB cable that improves the quality as much as the one i have for my ps2? On the box of the scart cable it says 'Highest possible picture quality from your GameCube System'I hope this isnt true.

Also whats the Digital AV OUT socket for on the back of the GC?

I just got an RGB Scart Cable and connected it up correctly but the picture quality hasnt changed at all from the normal composite cable supplied with the GC. The cable is gold plated and its just a wire from the connector to the GC to the scart head. All the pins are on the scart head, so i cant think why its still showing a crap picture. I have an RGB cable for my PS2 and that dramactically improves the picture and graphics quality, but why doesnt the GC one?

Thanks for all your suggestions!
Its my birthday today so my mum let me use her credit card, seeing as how i have no money in mine until friday, and i've ordered the following:

Platinum GameCube
Zelda TWW (comes with 2  bonus zelda games)
Super Monkey Ball 2
Luigi's Mansion
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Resident Evil
Pikmin

RGB Scart Cable
Joytech 32 MB Memory Card (507 Blocks)

and all of this should either come tomorrow or friday!

btw Penfold i'll still play my ps2 i have alot of great games for it, i dont think i've bought a crap game for it yet, oh except charlie's angels, that tought me never to buy a game without reading a review of it first! but i got a refund there are some more great games coming out for it too, but now im getting a GC i dont know whether to get Soul Calibur 2 on GC or PS2

The reason im getting a GC is for the nintendo only games like mario and stuff like that. I cant wait, probably like most of you here, for MK double dash! that looks awesome.

Im not sure whether to get Super Mario Sunshine or not, i never had an N64 so i havent played Mario 64, i think the last mario game i played was for the black and white gameboy I know some people love it and some hate it, maybe i should rent it first?? anyways i'll shut up now, i've written to much
