New and improved.
When it comes to getting the best possible image quality out of your retro console of choice, you usually have to jump through a few awkward (not to mention expensive) hoops. That was certainly the case with the GameCube until very recently; the best way of running the system in the past was via Nintendo's own SCART (if you're in Europe) or Component (if you're in the US) cables, the latter of which offered a digital signal which was unique to the console at the time. In an uncharacteristically forward-thinking move, Nintendo included digital output in the GameCube years before the PlayStation 3 shipped with HDMI support out of the box, but it never saw widespread use, outside of being converted to analogue signal by the aforementioned Component cable – which now sells for exorbitant sums online.
History lesson completed, we can be thankful in 2018 that Nintendo decided to include this digital output in the GameCube, because it has allowed industrious modders to create an open source standard which allows crisp HDMI output from the console. We've already reviewed the GC Video Plug 'n Play 3.0 and EON GDHD, and now EON is back with the Mk-II model of the latter; it's the same basic unit but with some impressive additional features that make it the most comprehensive option for those who are keen to get the most mileage out of their vintage system.
