How to get the most out of your classic games console.

I have been doing some serious research on how to get a 480P signal through component for the Gc, may work with the n64, snes Sega and many others.

 

For ntsc user like me i had to get a s.video to component video converter. It may have a high price tag but its worth it if you're trying to get a higher res picture on your HD tv.

for people who use PAL your solution is cheaper :(

 

i have pictures :biggrin:

 

seem to have some issues deleting pics.

 

"female to scart" check link. Note the Wii component does not work on the Gamecube or the n64.

Can you not use an Emu for Pc? :turned:

 

Then again the original controller would not work

unless you bought an adapter for it , which likewise costs money and the whole nostalgic atmosphaere gets lost.

Emulators border on piracy, and are technically illegal unless you own the original copy of the game, which I assume most don't.

What i was trying to do is get a decent image out of a lcd tv, you know how ugly the snes looks on a 42 inch lcd don't you, well component works great with that cleaning part of the image. It somewhat up samples it to 480P. The snes had s-video cable. Witch was considered HD back in the day.

 

Even that looks horrible.

 

I still have my white snes in working condition. Cleans it out once in awhile :thumbsup: .

 

I have at least 50 games now, found about 30 of them on Ebay as a bundle thing for 30$ :thumbsup:
