Picked up a controller and mario 64! Took a while to get it working on my modern tv via the standard analogue ariel lead and it looks just awful 
would the scart cables out there make the picture clearer ?

Enjoyed looking through this thread, brings back painful memories though of being younger and lending out lots of nes and master system games and never getting them back 
Gave up collecting ages ago but not so long ago I picked up the donkey kong country trilogy for just a tenner, couldnt resist at that price. (Just the carts though) I'll have to dig out everything I have and get some photos up if anyones interested?

Thanks. Looks like a handy device. I'm still rocking a CRT TV but once it goes I'll probably just switch to using a monitor.
yeah I have a scanline generator (SLG 3000) from arcade forge and it is amazing, particularly on 2d fighters and resident evil 2/3. It hides a lot of the jaggies that old crts used to and the image from a distance just looks awesome

This is my current setup, mum and dad had an old CRT tv they didn't need.
Works pretty well and ordered cables and switcher for all consoles i have at minute, hopefully have all them running come next week.

Thinking of selling a couple consoles and some other bits on GT. What's the safest way to request payment?
Everything I'm selling is tested and working and in good condition. I just worry how easy charge backs are on PayPal if someone tries to pull a fast one.

PayPal gift is safest for the seller as there is no protection for goods and services.
