Advantages: Improved picture quality, cheap price

Disadvantages: None

The Dreamcast scart cable allows you to link up the Dreamcast through the scart plug of your TV rather than the RF. For a very cheap price this gives you much higher quality graphics.

The original reason I purchased this was because the RF plug in my TV likes to break itself every 5 minutes, ruining my games. Lucky in a way, because if it was working I may never have bothered with the scart cable, and what a mistake that would be.

For only £7, my games now look much better. There is a definite improvement in graphical quality, plus there's no longer the need to go round the back of the telly and swap cables every time I want to play on my 'Cast.

The scart is easy as pies to set up, just take out your old RF cable, jam this into the back of the Cast and then into the Scart port on your telly. Simple as that.

The only problem I had with this was that the connector to the Dreamcast was slightly messed up, meaning that knocking it could remove, for example the red signal going into the TV. However the nice folks at EB replaced it for me.

What annoys me is that Sega don't supply this with the 'Cast... it's the year 2001 for god sakes.

There really is nothing more to say, just think people, £7 for this huge improvement. You'd be a fool not to have one.
Stop reading this, go buy a scart.
