Worked without problem
Well, I got my projector and this adapter on the same day. I knew I wasn't going to be able to play my ps3 with my projector without an adapter because it didn't have an HDMI port. I HATE reading manuals, so most often I don't, but because I did read that some people had issues getting their PS3 to link up right away, I read it anyway. I was quite pleased to know first of all it was only 1 short page and secondly, I didn't even need it because the adapter worked right away. I get a crystal clear image and the addition of the audio jack on the adapter made it really easy for me to plug it into my sound system to get a full gaming experience. I think this is a great product and I'm sure I will purchase another at some point in the next couple of years when I get a projector for my parents.

Worthless
Worthless. This product completely fails at its advertized purpose. Wii to VGA connectivity was intermittant at best, often breaking to a black screen for 1-5 seconds at a time. The manufacturer's site has no support and does not sell this product.

Bleh
It "works" in that it allows me to play Wii games over VGA, but my screen blanks for 1 to 2 seconds every three minutes or so. It's essentially a piece of crap. Go for a VGA to HDMI solution for only slightly more.

Great solution for Cheap Hd gaming
This cable is a cheaper solution than buying a vga box and a good one. I use the cable on a 17 in and 22 in crt monitor that both output 1080i on my ps3. i cant speak about wii since i havent used it with it. the only problem i had with this cable was the l/r audio was mixed up. left was red and right was white but its not a big problem. Getting it to display on my monitor wasnt hard but had to do some research online since sewell direct didnt include them. buy this on amazon and not sewell direct cause they didnt include all the parts saying it was the way they do business. Actually dont buy anything from sewell direct. Its a good solution for anyone looking for HD gaming without buying a hdtv or expensive vga box.

Great if you can live with interruptions
I bought the cable to use with a PS3 Slim and an AOC 2036s monitor.

The cable came with:

[...]

I bought [...] product in order to use headphones with the setup.


The setup was easy, although it does require a separate TV in order to change the display settings in the first place. (If you could manage to navigate through the Playstation XMB without seeing it - using another PS3 for guidance - then you could always change the settings without another TV)

The PS3 image looks great at 720p. It's ever so slightly blurred, but barely noticeable. The sound works great with the RCA to jack cable.

The reason I gave the cable 2 stars is that every 5 minutes or so the screen turns black for 2 seconds before returning to the picture, pretty much rendering the cable pointless for it's purpose - gaming. Assuming it was a problem with the PS3 settings or my monitor I checked online for an answer, unfortunately there isn't one.

A lot of people are having the same issue, so I can only assume the cable is being sold knowingly defective, or under false pretenses - If they mentioned it had a high chance of causing the screen to go black every 5 minutes I doubt many people would buy it.

So, to sum up - The picture looks fine and the sound works fine, and if you can live with gameplay interruption every 5 minutes then it's a good bargain. If you can't then I guess you should save up for a monitor/TV with a HDMI input.

If anyone finds any solution to the blackouts please let me know, the packaging got thrown so I cant return it. :\

UPDATE: I tried emailing the company from their website and every email address listed fails delivery, so if you need any support you'll need to phone China. I've changed my mind: zero stars.
