HDMI Cable for Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo 64 N64, Super Nintendo SNES (3-in-1), GameCube/SNES/N64 to HDMI Adapter with S-Video Signal Output (Better Video Quality), HD Converter with 4:3/16:9 Switch

Bought for use with more original hardware SNES. The cable arrived with a card noting potential issues with an earlier version of the cable. I was unfortunate and received a cable that was not wanting to send signal to the TV. The one time I was able to get a picture it was a bit on the blurry side, very bright, and was glitchy on the bottom of the screen. The seller responded to an email very quickly with a list of recommendations to rule out other potential causes. Once confirming the issue was with the cable the seller sent me a revised version that arrived with a few days. The seller even followed up to ensure the new cable was working after it arrived. The picture was darker when compared to the one time I had the older version of the cable working, but the image was stable with no glitching and the quality of the sprites was fantastic. Considering the conversion from such old hardware that was designed for CRT TVs, I would say the cables was doing an superb job. A+ customer service saved my experience with the product and has me rocking out nostalgia nights on my childhood favorites. While I do wish that Amazon initially shipped the revised version of the cable, the lack of comparable products on the market led me to be thankful to end up with a product that works so well.

I'm not a purist, but this works quite well for what I was looking for. Compared it to using my AV receiver RCA inputs, as well as Gamestop's version of this device ($13.99 as of this writing). In my opinion, it works better than the Gamestop version (Gamestop device only outputs widescreen, which stretches the image, and also appears even more pixelated). Picture quality looked comparable to my AV receiver output, however the added switch on this device allows the image to output the original 4:3 (with black side bars), which is nice (my AV receiver was unable to output the 4:3 format, only stretched widescreen). Understandably, these are retro games, so the game image is going to be pixelated anyway, especially compared to how we remembered the older CRT's with scanlines. I don't have the Nintendo Online versions for comparison, but I imagine those will have slightly better graphics or clean-up polygons by the developer. But it's also nice not having to pay a subscription fee to play. Well worth the $30 (as of this writing) - not sure if I could justify $130, or even several hundred, for the better up-conversion devices out there that can simulate scanlines and crt pixel geometry, or options for pixel smoothing. Possible I'll want to try those later on, but for now I just wanted something to help play my old system on the newer HD TV's, and this seemed to do the trick. Happy gaming!

First one I received did not work, but I quickly received a replacement after I sent the manufacturer an email. Played a lot of Mario Party 2 with it the last few days. No issues, a great product.

Let me start by saying that mine arrived with an audio issue. The right audio channel would intermittently cut out. I contacted LevelHike and got a replacement without hassle, so this comes with some great customer service. Overall, this isn’t the best way to convert your consoles to HDMI, but I think it’s unbeatable for the price. Sound quality is pretty good, except for a slight static sound when no audio is playing. The image quality varies by console. I would say it’s quite good for SNES. It’s a little blurry for N64, but acceptable. For GameCube, the image was pretty dark for me even if I adjusted my display settings. I like that it’s an adapter that plugs into HDMI rather than the entire thing being an HDMI cable itself. The 4:3/16:9 switch is fantastic to have if you’re using a display that doesn’t have aspect ratio settings (I’m using a computer monitor personally). It comes with a USB cable for power but it worked without it and I didn’t notice a difference. I’m guessing it’s for situations where the HDMI connection does not deliver enough power from the display. If you want the best image quality, you will need different cables for each console, some very expensive adapters, and/or to mod the video output of your consoles. This just plugs in and works. I highly recommend this if you want to connect 3 different consoles to HDMI on a budget, and especially if your display does not have aspect ratio settings.

I recently purchased a gamecube since I never got to have one as a kid, but my TV doesn't have a proper RCA port, so I got this to properly hook it up to my TV. I like the fact you can connect the power supply to the TV rather than plugging it into the wall, and both the sound and picture quality are great! It was such a joy to boot up Super Mario Sunshine and see the splash of color in the loading screen. My one gripe thus far is that sound doesn't come through initially if you just boot up the gamecube- you have to fiddle with the 4:3/16:9 switch in order for it to pick up sound. (So I've been missing the cheerful little boot up noise the gamecube makes when getting everything started. Which isn't a big deal but just makes me a bit sad because I like hearing that noise. :'( ) Once you've fiddled with the switch, sound comes through and everything works like a charm. Very good quality for the price and I'm very happy over all. So excited to finally play some gamecube games!

nice but not improving graphics quality

I own an original Super Famicom system and an N64 NTSC J model that are both modified. My HD Tv supports scart for composite signals but wanted a better picture quality for N64. Composite signals on HD tvs lead to pixel separation which make games with 3d graphics look untidy, shooters and racing games are a bit unbearable because it's hard to see long distance. The cheap HDMI adapters loose brightness and contrast, which makes Doom 64 unplayable but decent enough for SNES. I could still use the composite lead for that but wanted to see if I could get a better experience with N64 hardware. Doom 64 looked great even though I had to adjust the brightness and contrast on my TV and in dark areas I could find switches even though it's a bit darker than composite, the crosshair on Goldeneye was more solid making it easier to aim. Mario kart 64 looked amazing. This adapter doesn't upscale, but it does clean the picture quality up more than analogue signal and SNES games looked twice as better. Sometimes the audio is absent when turning on but moving the aspect ratio switch back and forth fixes it. I did some further testing, this adapter is not compatible with PAL region. Works with NTSC only.

It works great for me I only wish the nintendo Wii used the same output cable oh well it works awesomely well if I had to buy again I would happily do so in a heartbeat

the first one didnt work and was a shame. But was sent another cable and that one works perfect! Thank you! Will be buying from this company again and great customer service.

Does what it says on the tin! Found my old N64 in the garage and fancied a walk down memory lane! Plugged in and ready to go! Re living my youth!
