> 3 dayI have one of these for ALL my retro consoles now. They are awesome. It really cuts down on wire clutter so its a lot easier to avoid a cable jungle behind the TV. It doesnt upscale the output in any way (didnt expect it to), it just allows you to use your consoles with newer TVs without getting bulky adapters or messing with all the silly composite cables. They work great!!

> 3 dayIf your modern tv doesnt have composite inputs, this will let you plug classic game systems to your tv. With the snes classic and such, were used to razor sharp old-school graphics. This is a little more muddled. This takes the old school fuzzy composite signal and converts it into HDMI. It gives you a soft/fuzzy image, but so would a modern tv that has composite inputs. Its good for composite. The only options that do better are much more expensive. There are some adapters that take S-Video and convert it, but theyre quite a bit more if you can find them. There are the Analogue systems, but I think theyre all sold out. For the price range, this works well. If you want to get a snes or n64 working on a tv with no composite, this gives you your nostalgia kick!

Greater than one weekAs a video game collector, I’m well versed in the various options for hooking up older consoles to modern TVs. Modern TVs are generally not equipped with the hardware needed to display the older image resolution that these consoles output. A HDMI converter such as this one bridges that gap by converting the image to something the TV can read. The SNES, N64 and Gamecube use the same cables, so this particular solution could be used with all of them. The quality of image your TV displays has to do with what type of signal is coming from the console. Which one is used will determine how clean the image is. The following are the signals available in the above mentioned consoles: • RF (coaxial) through the TV’s antenna port. This usually involves using the RF adapter box that comes with the console. It provides the lowest quality image, resulting in muddy images and a lack of subtleties in color. • 2. Composite video RCA. This uses a cable with three ends, Yellow for video, red and white for the stereo sound output. Composite is better than RF but will display some of the same issues as RF to lesser degree. This converter uses this signal. • 3. S-video. An S-video cable also has three ends, but in addition to the two stereo connectors, there is a special end that plugs into a television S-video port. S-video provides the best image quality that the SNES and N64 could output. It works by splitting the color and monochrome signals into two channels. Thus, the TV is able to more accurately display them. You get a cleaner image, subtler tones over color and crisper edges. • 4. Component. Only early Gamecubes could do this one. Component is an early HD signal that splits into three colors, one connector for each. This is the best resolution a Gamecube can output and is actually compatible with most modern TVs (if you can find one of the super rare component cables). This HDMI converter uses the second signal, composite, to convert and output to the TV. As a result, the image isn’t the best you could possibly get from your unmodified console. To do that, you’d want to get an S-video to HDMI converter. Stand alone devices are available for a bit more than this device but you’d need to also find an original S-video cable for the console, meaning you’ll spend more for that solution over this one. You can also get custom made all in one devices, but those are only available on gaming sites and even more pricey. THE REVIEW: So, for what it is, how is this device? Out of the box, you get the composite to HDMI converter, an HDMI cable, a USB cable, a USB power plug and an instruction sheet. The converter does require power to operate, so you will need to plug it in, though many modern TVs will have USB port on the back you can plug into so you don’t have to draw from an electrical outlet. Setup is easy. They put everything in the box that you need. As an all in one solution, you can just hook it up to your console and TV and play. It’s that easy. Image quality is as expected for composite. I was sort of impressed because a lot of these devices are mediocre at best. This one does a pretty decent job of it with an image that is about as clean as you might expect from a composite signal. You’ll definitely want to play around with your TV’s settings for the best image as some stock settings (Movie, Game, etc) will wash out the colors pretty badly. In terms of latency (that is the time between the console making the image and it appearing on the screen), this device doesnt seem to contribute to the problem. Much of the latency issues you might have will be related to the TV as opposed to this converter. Other things of note include the switch on the converter that allows you to change the display from 16:9 to 4:3 image size. By choosing 16:9, the image will be stretched to fit the screen. Bottom Line: This is a great composite solution for modern TVs and compatible Nintendo consoles, but it is not the best option out there in terms of image quality. That said, given its affordability, I think you could do a lot worse for options that provide a complete solution for hooking your old consoles up to a modern tV.

> 3 dayI cant plug my n64 into my Vizio TV since it is an unsupported resolution (I guess old resolutions just dont work on new TVs). With this, the tv sees it as 1080p and lets me play n64 on my TV. The latency seems pretty decent too, It is really unnoticeable when youre playing most games, except maybe smash, but still if youre just casually playing, This is perfect.
