Gamecube component cables now shipping from Nintendo's store

[bjlarson2]

I just received an email confirmation from Nintendo that the component video cable I ordered from their online store a month ago just shipped. Their website indicated that the cables would be in stock the week of June 20, so it looks like they kept their word.

I don't know if that means that placing an order today will get you a cable soon, but I wanted to pass this along for anyone else who might want to try to get progressive scan output from their Gamecube.

Good...I need to order one.

This just makes me want to kick myself even harder. A couple of months ago I missed an eBay auction for a GameCube, 2 WaveBirds, 4 first-party memory cards and a brand-new set of component cables. The auction ended at $65.
