Yeah, I knew that you needed that pack.

I also have a Cube, do you need the same kind of cable for that too?

Yes you need special cables from Nintendo. Most game and electronic stores do not carry them so you usually have to special order them from Ninetendo or from another internet company.

I'm pretty sure Nintendo has stopped making them as well. The new Cube's do not have the output on the back of the system. I got my component cables a long time ago, but I remember reading where people were paying 60-70 bucks on Ebay for a set.

Yes...That's the first thing you should do. Check the back of your Gamecube (or the manual probably) and see if you have the port for the cables. I got my cables around November from Nintendo's website for $29.95...Don't know if they still have them.

Re: Question about games in HDTV

you still need the connector for the componant cables

60 bucks is a bit much for something you can get half that price easy
