HD Retrovision Super Nintendo YPbPr Component Cable

The HD Retrovision SNES YPbPr Component Cable is a gift to your eyeballs. In the past, you would be stuck playing Mega Man X and Star Fox with cables that resulted in color striping and bleeding. Those problems are a thing of the past when you start playing your Super Nintendo with an HD Retrovision YPbPr cable. Use them on an HDTV that supports 240p, or on a standard-definition CRT for that classic look.

The following chart contains a list of tested and confirmed console models which have been verified to work with the SNES YPbPr Cable. The intent of this list is to give a general idea of what types of consoles can work with the cable, and is not exhaustive. Therefore, we expect the cable to work with even more models and console types than what is listed, but we are unable to explicitly put them in the list unless functionality is directly confirmed by us.

As highlighted below, there is no out-of-the-box solution for using the SNES/SFC "mini" (SNS-101 / SHVC-101) or Nintendo 64 with the SNES YPbPr cable. These specific consoles require internal modification. The modification services listed within the chart are the only ones approved by HD Retrovision. Self-installation kits or other similar types of services are NOT supported under warranty.

HD Retrovision SNES Component Cables A Gift For Your Eyes

Posted by Rich Ambler on Feb 9th 2024

The HD Retrovision SNES Component Cables truly are a gift for your eyes! These cables provide superior video quality that you will notice immediately right out of the box. While these YPbPr Component Cables are specifically designed for use with the SNES, they will also provide exceptional video signal when used with the Tim Worthington NES RGB Mod. You will not be disappointed with these cables if used properly. One final note: HD Retrovision YPbPr component cables only output Standard-Definition video of the intended console source and as such, may be incompatible with your capture card, so be sure to check the FAQ on capture cards if you intend to stream. The use of an upscaler can often work around the issue of 240p YPbPr specific incompatibility inherent within many capture cards. -Rich Ambler, 1990 Nintendo World Champion 1st Runner-Up Hollywood, CA.

These cables are the key element to my setup. I`ve got them for my RGB modded NES, 1-Chip SNES, and RGB modded N64. All feed into a component switch, and I even use HD Retrovision`s M-M cable to feed into the RetroTINK 4K. Could not be happier with these cables. I highly recommend building your setup around using these cables.

Best Cables

Posted by Casey M. on Dec 24th 2023

Just got the cables in hooked it up to my non modified Super Famicom and my jaw hit the floor. If you have component inputs on your crt these cables are the way to go. The picture quality is miles ahead of composite.

Premiere Cable for SNES Output

Posted by Matt M. on Dec 21st 2023

These cables receive a great deal of praise online, and for good reason. They do exactly what they`re described to do, and they`re built to last. The price is high, but there`s no reason you need to replace them. I have several for many different consoles, and I can`t recommend them enough.

Phenomenal Performance

Posted by Nathan Mitchell on Dec 19th 2023

Purchased this for my N64 RGB Voultar Mod and it is just amazing how awesome the picture quality is. Colors pop and the sharpness is great! Did not think a 240P resolution could look so good!

SNES Component Cable

Posted by Mitchell McDonough on Sep 22nd 2023

I had seen videos of what this product could do, but nothing prepared me for what it looks like in person. The light colors pop, and the darker colors have a warm depth to them. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to take their SNES to the next level.

I used these cables on an n64 with Tim Worthington`s RGB mod. The picture is stupendous. It`s so vibrant and crisp now. These cables are worth every penny.

Purpose-Built

It does exactly what it was made to do. I love the little cover for the switch that affects brightness.
