You can either use the RGB output or the Composite output of this console, both look great and are running through the Triple Bypass for excellent video quality.
The console has been tested and verified working and ready for gaming. See photos for details and proof of work.
This does not come with cables and converters for getting RGB output, you will need to get those
separately. I recommend one of the following setups (from easiest to most complex):
-
Rad2x Cable for your system (gives you HDMI output in a single cable). (https://www.retrogamingcables.co.uk/RAD2X-CABLES)
-
Component Cable for your system (https://www.hdretrovision.com/)
+ Upscaler (https://www.retrorgb.com/upscalers.html). (lets you use the upscaler for multiple systems and has
more options)
-
RGB SCART cable (https://stoneagegamer.com/search-magic.html?query=scart+cable)
+ RGB SCART to Component Converter (https://www.retrorgb.com/converters.html) + Upscaler (https://www.retrorgb.com/upscalers.html). (The most versatile option as you
can use this setup with any system and a SCART cable)
Here are the upscalers I recommend (if you're not going to use a Rad2x cable and need an upscaler):
-
RetroTinx 2x/2x-Pro/5x/4k (https://www.retrotink.com/shop)
-
Open Source Scan Converter (OSSC) (https://stoneagegamer.com/ossc-pro-open-source-scan-converter.html)
-
RetroScaler2x (https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=retroscaler+2x) (I don't really recommend this unless the others are unavailable or you are on a
tight budget because it is a bit janky and is of questionable origin)
And the RGB to Component converters (if you're going to use SCART instead of a component cable for
your system):
-
RetroTink RGB2COMP (https://www.retrotink.com/product-page/rgb2comp)
-
Shinybow SB-2840 SCART-RGB to Component (https://www.ani-av.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=220)
-
Bitfunx RGBS/VGA to YPBPR (https://www.ebay.com/itm/326265271747)
