It wasn't until recently that I found an cheap VGA to HDMI upscaler that worked for me: HDE VGA w/Audio to HDMI Video Scaler Converter Box with Power Adapter VGA to HDMI Adapter However, like most upscalers, it needs an external power source, and since my entertainment setup needs to be baby-proofed with all of the wires hidden, it meant either leaving the upscaler on all the time (wasting electricity) or leaving it exposed in some way. I chose the former and hated it. This cable solved my problem. Yes, if I get up close, I can see visually that without the upscaling, the signal is slightly softer. But I already sit far enough away that I have to use a controller extension cable, so it's not noticeable. I love that this cable allowed me to clean up my wiring and stop wasting power. My only complaints: 1. The cable happens to be long enough for me, but I still would have preferred to be able to supply my own HDMI cable. If that box had been shifted just a few inches over, it would have landed right in the middle of the hole I had to route the wires through, and I would have had to get an HDMI extender. 2. The Dreamcast side plug fits in more sung into the console than an official AV cable, or even my old 3rd-party VGA box. I know some collectors are worried about that, as it may end up over-stressing the AV port. Like any of these kind of converters, I'm sure more could be done to improve signal quality, tweak color balance, etc, but for my money my games looked great. Also, a lot of people are quick to point out that this cable "isn't a 100% solution" as some games don't support VGA mode. There are exactly 16 games that can't be made to work, and 279 that can. So it's a 94.5% solution. Games that don't work with VGA: Air Force Delta Bangai-O Ceasars Palace 2000: Millennium Gold Edition ECW Anarchy Rulz ECW Hardcore Revolution Iron Aces Jojo's Bizarre Adventure The King of Fighters '99 Evolution The King of Fighters: Dream Match 1999 Last Blade II Heart of a Samarai MTV Sports: Skateboarding Featuring Andy McDonald Plasma Sword Psychic Force 2012 Ring, The: Terror's Realm Soul Fighter WWF Attitude Review: Awesome image quality at an awesome price! - This cable is a great solution for getting the best image quality from your Dreamcast on a modern TV! Like any true Dreamcast fan, we all know VGA is the best possible image quality, and I have a VGA box that I love, but my 55" Sony 4k does not have a VGA input like most modern TV's. There are HDMI converters out there that can be hit or miss in my experience, and you can spend a small fortune chasing the best image quality. this cable is great because it just works! No converters, no extra power, just plug it in and go. This only works for VGA compatible games, this is obvious and stated in the ad. There are not many games not VGA compatible so you are most likely not even going to find it an issue in most cases. The image is displayed correctly on my TV in the center and the proper aspect ratio, but there have been reports that it is shifted on some peoples TVs. Because this does not upscale, and just sends the 640x480 VGA signal, some TVs just dont know how to handle that over HDMI, and you may be one of the unlucky ones with such a TV. This is not the fault of the cable and it does exactly what it is advertised to do. I saw another review mention sound issues, this is NOT the case with me, playing Jet Grind Radio all the music sounded great and exactly how it should. As long as your TV works with this cable, you cannot beat the price and the image quality is great, any DC fan that uses a modern TV should try this out and see if it works for you! ## Features - SEGA DREAMCAST ON HDTV: enjoy classic Dreamcast games like Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi and Shenmue in high definition on a 4k TV, with our Dreamcast HD cable - VGA CONVERTER: play many Dreamcast games on a modern TV - the Pound link cable uses the native VGA signal of the Dreamcast and converts it to digital HDMI - CLEAN PICTURE, SHARP TEXTURES: upgrade from a standard Dreamcast AV cable to our HDMI cable for a sharper, crisper display, with clear text and no fogginess - ACCURATE COLORS: the Pound HDMI cord for Dreamcast converts your console's analogue VGA signal into pure, digital HDMI, for an increase in color accuracy - PLUG AND PLAY: no cable mess - the Pound HD cable seamlessly connects your Sega Dreamcast console to a modern TV via HDMI with no adapter or power supply ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07BZP7HML | | Best Sellers Rank | #27,982 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #31 in Sega Dreamcast Accessories | | Brand Name | POUND | | Cable Type | HDMI, VGA | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Sega Dreamcast | | Compatible Phone Models | No Compatible Phone Models | | Connectivity Technology | HDMI | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Female | | Connector Type | HDMI, VGA | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (863) | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor, Outdoor | | Item Shape | Round | | Manufacturer | Pound | | Model | 432103 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 34 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Braided | | UPC | 735935998701 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Images ![POUND HD Link Cable for Dreamcast - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81btfFNp6SL.jpg) ![POUND HD Link Cable for Dreamcast - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71aR6PX5xBL.jpg) ![POUND HD Link Cable for Dreamcast - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61AmO4DeolL.jpg) ![POUND HD Link Cable for Dreamcast - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51q0V8DSpGL.jpg) ![POUND HD Link Cable for Dreamcast - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41lL-FKWteL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Am i correct in thinking that this model differs from the previous model in that the hdmi cord is detachable?** A: That's correct. I bought mine over a month ago which is just one cable from the TV to the Dreamcast. The latest revision is the one they're selling now which has the detachable HMDI cable. Apparently there is no difference in performance or quality :) **Q: This cable will be able to play metal gear solid (pal) using my bleemcast disc with my ntsc dreamcast on ntsc hdtv ? (i dont have older tv....)** A: It will work if you are talking about a black sega dreamcast sport. If you are talking about an xbox, you would need a pound cable for an xbox. **Q: What capture cards will this cable work with?** A: Anything that accepts a 480p hdmi signal **Q: When is this going to be back in stock :(** A: There in stock now ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quick and easy, works for 94.5% of games *by J***L on June 12, 2018* I have an old Samsung LCD TV with VGA, but it refuses to recognize the slightly non-standard VGA output the Dreamcast produces.

It's a fine product for what it is. Be advised, any games that do not support vga output will not work with this cable. While it scales nicely and cleabs up the signal a bit its a tad bit darker than it should be. It's a great short term solution but there are better but more expensive and time consuming methods out there. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/65175377-pound-hd-link-cable-for-dreamcast](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/65175377-pound-hd-link-cable-for-dreamcast) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
