My S-video cable is kind of shitty, and I plan to use the S-Video port with my PC. Where will sell me a Dreamcast cable for cheaps?

I picked up my Dreamcast RGB SCART on EBay. There were loads of them and I suspect there still are.

Well if you want a wide selection of cables for a defunct console at reasonable prices I'm afraid Ebay is the place.

I'm sure generic web retro console emporium will sell you one for 20 quid.......

Well exactly. I think the first place you have to look for second hand components or new stuff for retro consoles is Ebay. I certainly wouldn't have found my brand new C64 video out lead elsewhere as the bloke who makes them only sells via Ebay.

You can get an official SCART lead for just over a tenner:

Apparently it's a pre-order though, so either Sega has a secret manufacturing facility churning out new Dreamcast accessories, or they're waiting for the arrival of the joblot they bought off eBay.
