And to think I just gave someone a warning for going off topic in this thread...

I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

It's a definite Yes. (I even got the GameStop Brand) SMG looks 10x better in Component, along with Zelda, and just about all games. Colors are drastically improved, and lines are more clear. The jaggies are often reduced (SMG and Zelda)

Also I'll find a video of the comparison, but hold on for now.

Didn't gamecube have component cables? Wait, yeah, I've seen them. This was last generation's advancement... Just get the cheapest component cables you can find and enjoy.

Also, holding down 'b' when starting gamecube games will trigger progressive scan mode, if the game supports it.

The Gamecube supported progressive scan, so yes, it had component cables.
