HD Pack no longer available???


I've looked everywhere, no one has it for sale. Online stores show it as discontinued or out of stock.
Whats going on? Is this product not available at all anymore?

I can't find it either. I've checked Amazon, EBGames, Best Buy, Circuit City and GameStop.

Buy.com claims to have it. I'm not in a rush to buy it, since I don't actually have an HDTV, just a TV with component in. Let me know if you get it

Of course, there's always eBay. Just ignore anything less than retail, they're knock-offs.

Are you talking about for the Xbox? My GameStop just got 4 more in on Thursday.

Moving to hardware. Please specify which console. I can't imagine Microsoft would have discontinued this product for the Xbox as it is such an important aspect of the console's performance. Worst case they might have switched suppliers and this is a transition delay.

Yes, I was refering to the XBOX HD pack, and it looks like it has been discontinued, just look for it at amazon.com and you'll get that message...
very strange

I haven't seen the xbox HD packs anywhere locally in ages. Figures since I'm now interested in getting a tosh 26 inch widescreen with progressive scan component inputs.

I don't really understand this, more and more HD sets are being sold each and every day and now when people need the HD packs, where are they?

It is really stupid...anyway, I have seen some around lately. If anyone needs some I can get a couple at my local mall (where I incidentally work). But I have to say it doesn't surprise me--Nintendo has stopped making the component cables even though many of their games are still supporting progressive scan. Makes no sense, but hey usually things like this don't.

If you cant find the hd pack I would recommend getting the monster component cables. I have them and they are great, plus theres less connections and doesnt have to go through the box.

I've been able to find them at FutureShop here in Calgary. However, they are $40 CDN, which is quite pricey...same as when they first came out in 2001!

The green output jack broke on mine, but thankfully a coworker is handy with a soldering iron and glue, and fixed it. Whew.



Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him...a super-callused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
