As the thread says, I'm looking for some good composite (that is RWY) cables. Doesn't make any sense that I can find a good one for my Genesis but not my Dreamcast....

It actually took me a few years to track down a set of composite cables. I was using s-video, and since only two of the tvs in my house had s-video inputs, I was limited to playing my Dreamcast on either of those tvs. I just couldn't justify paying the same amount on both shipping and the actual cable, so I waited until I found one for sale at a pawn shop.

Hopefully you found what you needed though, as it seems like coaxial and s-video cables were the primary cable made by third party sellers, since the Dreamcast shipped with composite.

Still on the prowl actually. The only ones I can find are these on Amazon. The overall review score looks promising, but when I start to read the seperate reviews, many people note how fragile the cords are.

I also checked out the ones DS linked me to. I'll keep an eye out for the brand, but I can't get them on Ebay since I dislike the site.

STILL on the hunt for some composite cables.

Has anyone had any expierience with this VGA box? I notice that it can use composite and also that reviews are good on it.

If you have tried it, PLEASE let me know how the composite portion of the box performs.
