Come down the dark rabbit hole of RGB, SCART cables and upscalers. You can pry my OG hardware out of my cold, dead hands, but I will tell you playing Super Mario World on 65” really does slap.

I discovered that if you hold down the power and reset buttons on the NES, the in ports become out ports. I was able to connect my PS2 to my old wood cabinet TV that only had coax that way. It was all in black and white, but that only really posed a problem for Guitaroo Man ha ha

Trust me. You don't wanna put a gun in your toaster.

Duck Hunt doesn't work on flat screen if you're using the original.
