Gamers don't want HD, but they do want Progressive Scan!
Although Nintendo is eschewing the HD Era in video games, many gamers have taken comfort in knowing they can at least run Wii titles in 480p with the aid of component cables. If you were looking to pick them up from Nintendo's online store, however, you're out of luck, as they're sold out. Prospective buyers are now getting the following message:
Due to high demand, our initial allotment of the Wii Component Video Cables has been depleted. We expect to begin shipping again the week of November 28, 2006.
So, unfortunately, if you were in the market for a pair, you'll have to wait another two weeks.
