How to use a Cube best on a 32" LCD-TV

[Zomby]

Hey guys,
last week I bought a "LG 32LG3000" it's a 32" LCD TV.

I connected the gamecube (PAL) to it by the standart SCART-Cable wich was delivered with the Cube, I started playing RE4 (16:9) but it looks really ugly.

I also tryed the 4:3 mode, too but with the same result.


I know that it will never look like RE5 BUT it must give a way to get better quality on a 32" ???

Composite will always look fugly it blends video data down one wire.
You need a proper RGB-Scart cable but to be honest I don't like LCD's either there contrast ratio is worse than CRT's imo everything looks either snowy white, too dark or too bright I could tell difference on this site's background images straightaway on CRT they look fine but on my AL1714 sm 17" monitor it look atrocious unless I fiddle with GPU my colour settings.
EDIT: I see it's a HDTV get a GC component cable instead.

If your GameCube is of the type that still has the digital output on the back, see if you can track down a component cable. (Or a D-terminal one and build or buy a converter for it) It'll breath some extra visual life into that Cube of yours.

I have heard aout this component cable and here in germany it is really really expensive 80€ ~ $110.

How much cost it in other countrys ?

You won't find it any cheaper. It was only released in Japan and was very rare to begin with.

Prime example of why Nintendo can go fuck off.

yea i thought about going that route with my gamecube but after i priced everything out it would have been better for me just to upgrade to a wii and buy component cables for it.

Are Gamecube games with a Wii on a LCD TV better ?

[mamock116]

the graphics would be the same but the wii wont have any framerate issues that the gamecube had

[Zomby]

And how is the Wii connected to the TV, over an RGB or Component Cable ?

I know I got a component cable through a company called JoyTech a while back for $30 and it was better than S-Video. Now the only prob I have is that there is too much of a green tint with the Component cable.
