This was the first cable that I bought to allow me to connect my NTSC GameCube and PAL SNES to a HDMI TV. It's a cheap solution - it cost me about £35, which is expensive for what it is, but it works and the picture quality is acceptable on the Samsung TV that I use. The TV has a game mode which disables all the image processing the panel does. This reduces any lag that the cable introduces.
The cable is essentially a glorified s-video to HDMI converter in a cable. This is why the block on the cable half-way down requires a micro-USB power supply attached The quality of the image output has been fine for me and I'll continue to use it with my SNESs. Granted, it is only an analogue signal, but for me it's been acceptable. But, now I have a Kaico HDMI adaptor on the way for the GameCube - this uses the digital out port and I'll be reporting on that when it arrives.
