I'm hopeful, but guessing probably not?

It doesn't I'm afraid, they're two completely different connections at the console end.

Is there an N64 component cable that works on the Gamecube?

A long shot I know, it's just that somebody at work reckoned they do?

I'm 99% sure there isn't as I don't think there was ever a component cable produced for the N64, if there was I'm almost certain it wouldn't be compatible anyway.

The Gamecube component cables are hard to come by, although now most people have moved onto the Wii I would have thought your chances of picking one up S/H would have increased.

Have you thought about popping a wanted ad in the gaming classified section here http://www.avforums.com/forums/gaming-classified-adverts/ I'm sure someone has one to sell.

I would have said what Tetlee said as well if I was asked by someone........but after a quick search, look what i found:

Might just be a typo of course!
