FIOTOK Audio/Video Composite Cable for Sega Dreamcast
J**R
Affordable and Does the Job Right
I recently picked up a Dreamcast console second hand and the seller did not have the composite (white, red, yellow) cord for TV hookup. I knew that cables would be available for cheap on Amazon but worried that they may not work well. I ended up ordering these as they were cheap and had qualified for free Amazon Prime shipping.When I received the cable, it fit very snug into the back of the Dreamcast. It required a little bit of force but I would consider that a plus since the cord is less likely to become unplugged. Other than that, the cable worked properly when hooked up to my TV.I suggest you purchase this aftermarket composite cable because an official SEGA one will be very difficult to find in this day. These work exactly the same and have sustained a few months use, thus far.If you happen to be looking for a better Dreamcast experience on your HDTV, look into the VGA Box Adapter S Video BRAND NEW for Sega Dreamcast as most of the Dreamcast games have the ability to play in 480p, which looks incredible when compared to standard quality picture.

Works just as advertised!
This seems like a decent product. The cable material seems sturdy and versatile enough for normal use. And it sends a fine picture.Concerning some other reviews, I was concerned originally that the Dreamcast side of the cable would be a tough fit for my system, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it fit fine, if not slightly snugly. I didn't have to force it, and feel everything will be fine going forward.I read other reviews and took a gamble, and it paid off. Good deal for the money, and well worth it to play this old Dreamcast again :)

Seems to work fine.
A bit blurry but probably not the fault of the cord. Only real concern is that the end that you insert into the system is very difficult to insert and is disconcertingly snug when you do finally get it in there. Once I got it plugged in I said 'okay well I'm never pulling that out again', because I'm afraid I'll just damage it or the system.

Not the best, but it works.
I had a bit of trouble getting these to work properly. The plug into the dreamcast doesn't fit exactly, you pretty much have to hammer it in and that kind of scares me. Hopefully it's not doing any damage to the Dreamcast. And the AV plugs themselves seem very sensitive. I had to twist them a bit to get them to actually show a clear picture. Other than that, they work alright. IF you can, try to get the original Dreamcast AVs instead.

Cables for your old Sega Dreamcast!
We bought this to use with an old Dreamcast that was given to us. Unfortunately the dream cast is broken, but the cables seem to be good.

was really good....WAS good untill it stopped working
bought it to play capcom vs snk2, game was really fun, the cord worked perfectly for about 3-4 turn on/offs after my 5th time turning on the dreamcast to play it nothing came up no sound or video, becarefull with the one you have because it might faulter on you, besides that i might have to get another one.

Little Stiff, but works great
A little stiff to plug in the Dreamcast at first. I plugged in the AV cable, turned the unit on and the TV screen was black. Tried what another reviewer had to deal with (mis-colored cables), but it was still black. So I take a closer look and plug the cable back in, felt that it could go more, and just pushed a little harder. Viola! works great, and cheap if you lost the original cable.

didn't work at all
This av cable does not seem to work with my HD TV even though I plugged it in correctly and made sure it was in the dreamcast correctly so I decided to buy a VGA cable instead since I have a slot for that on my TV so I hope that works but for those who use HD TV's when trying out the dreamcast hopefully it will work for you if not then you will have to find a different solution but its a real pain and I even ordered two different av cords and it still didn't work lol. If there is a solution to this problem feel free to comment.
