Just thought this might be of interest. We lucky europeans are to have scart cables included with our gamecube consoles.
Check out

(lose the space) for.. not much more, but it's confirmation.

So now instead of flicking a switch on a little box connecting a few wires, i have to unplug my dvd's scart cable, fumble around and try to plug in the cube's one, or buy an adaptor to let me plug everything in.
Some people are never happy...

Hmmmm, is this an RGB scart cable? or just a composite one like the PS2 one? Looks as though it is probably composite as Nintendo are selling a RGB cable seperatly.

all the jap/us ones have composite cable i dont think ninty have realeased an official scart cable.
Did you know that the n64 and gamecube have the same aerial connector so you can use your n64 rf modulator if you need to!

Why, don't we have scart leads anyway? What have we been using all these years? Magic wires?

Yes, magic analogue wires, or something. Unless we buy the non-magic scart ones seperately. Or kill the chief druid. : )

ive always had my n64 pluged in using the rf mod , but ever since i plugged the scart in , the picture has never been the same, the colours are dull (even when i put the colour up) and the picture isn't as clear ! it was ment to make it look but damn it !

you can plug your snes or n64 tv lead into it , so theres no neeed for a new one.
