That things a beast. Its really cool though. But it looks like it would uses standard component cables pretty much making my official Nintendo cables worthless.

its quite stupid as to how it renders the Wii bundled video cables useless forcing consumers to go purchase new cables to connect the wii to the TV.

Im not usually a fan of pass through accessories, but this looks well made and safe.

Except that you can still use those as the ports are forwarded and split.

It actually looks kinda cool.
They keep saying throughout the video that this is "another quality innovation from CTA digital," but I've never heard of CTA digital or their "quality innovations" before. :-/

True, but here's something a lot of people don't realize: Standard a/v (the red, white, and yellow cables) work just fine with component signals. You can pick those up from a local radio shack (or any electronic store) for a song and a dance, so this is hardly an issue worth worrying about.
