When having S-Video was the shit and knowing that the white cable never needed to be used. I guess if you wanted surround sound but the red was stereo and the white was mono so if you wanted true stereo sound supposedly you only went with the red but that was debated.

I remember being so excited when my family got a box to convert composite cables to coaxial so they would work with our old TV. I got my friend to bring over his gamecube all the time until I finally got my own after a few months.

Everyone saying they are older than these, but composite video dates back to the 1950s.

Yellow is video. White is left channel audio. Red is right channel audio.

I'm in my 20s and regularly did this as a child.
