Xbox 360 and PS3 both came with these cables, at least early in their lifespan. Getting component cables was a separate purchase but the PS3 had an HDMI port from the start.

Anyone else not notice a difference when they switched from RCA to HDMI?

most consoles stopped outputting analog video signals because it was pointless and expensive to include the DACs inside the consoles.

>>724139608
first 360 versions had a combo cable with both composite and component.

By that logic the SNES came with component and the Dreamcast came with VGA. Just because something had the capability of outputting that signal doesn't mean that it was the standard way of doing it, or that the console came with the cable to do it.

You can actually connect the PS3 directly to your TV using RF if you use the old PS1 RF cable.

Yes it did. It used the same video cable as the N64 and Gamecube, both of which supported component. It was just RGB component as opposed to that other kind I always forget the acronym for.
>>
>>724140134
I had one of the later models with an HDMI port. I guess Microsoft figured by then that if you wanted HD video, you would supply your own cable.

My 360 also came with these cables with that switch on the side. I didn't even know what component cables did and had no input ports available to test.

>>724140002
I still don't understand why is it so hard for chinks to make a cheaper version of this? Low demand?

AVGN ranted on these when he discovered how many old consoles on ebay have those little forks ripped off and they can't just be easily replaced.

it's wild to think that home consoles actually predate stuff like the betamax by three years and the concept of a betamax you could actually connect to your home TV by even more than that
>>
>>724140738
Something like that. The HDMI adapters are cheaper to make as well as more demanded. Retro-Bit makes a chink clone component cable but it's poor quality.

Look into how the few bootleg TV recordings of the Star Wars Holiday Special were made back in November 1978. It cost like a thousand or more dollars to have such a set-up, and they used it to record that fucking thing.
>>
>>724140701
This was the first thing I used, but ours broke almost immediately and got replaced with one of these >>724139752
Our mom used to just let us plug it in because she didn't know how it worked, and being able to use something the grownups didn't understand made me feel like a fucking five year old genius.

Because despite how shitty it was, it was Star Wars, and the novelty mattered. I watched this over and over just because it had the Ninja Turtles in it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0-vGW6p3zk

Remember kids, "composite belongs in the compost". If you have any self-respect you use component.
>>
>s-video is far superior
>never owned a single TV that had an s-video port
it's not fair
>>
>>724142793
S-video and component are turbomemes. SCART will get you from the 3rd generation to the 6th without any image quality loss.
>>
>>724142894
SCART is pretty much nonexistent in the USA, where Jesus was born.

>>724139993
Anon, sounds more like you were too stupid to plug it in properly
>>
>>724139432
after this is when gaming started going downhill.
>>
>>724140738
I think it's like $80 but people have managed to reverse engineer it and make an HDMI adapter using the Gamecube's digital out port. There's also a version that includes component output too.
>>
>>724142894
SCART is not a signal format, it's just a connector that's sometimes used for RGB, which might as well be equivalent to component.
>>
>>724139541
>no composite artifacts
garbage
>>
if you use SCART on an N64, it will output composite video anyway. You have to either mod it to output RGB or just use s-video like a reasonable person.

My N64 was an early one so it was a 15 minute job for RGB. It doesn’t make the video much cleaner due to N64 games being visual mush but it simplified my wiring.
