What do I need to look for on the back of my TV to see if I could use component cables?
FYI it's cerca 1994. :D

You're TV won't have them, but what you are looking for is a group of connections colored Red, Green and Blue (usually labeled Pr, Y, Pb) - keep in mind these are video only. Don't confuse with Composite which are Yellow (video), Red and White (audio).

Received mine from Nintendo. (Was one of the lucky few to order in time).
My only annoyance with Nintendo's component cable is the all-in-one sound and video. That means that I can't send the video to my TV's component input and the sound to my audio Receiver (located 3 feet to the left) at the same time. The cables are combined into one and only split a few inches to the end. Oh well.

Your receiver doesn't have component inputs?

Yeah, but it's stuffed full with all the other stuff. (DVD, PVR and 360) I still have some extra audio ones.
