Hey, I’m Chris and I love all things retro! Particularly hardware and mods.
My search terms are typically “tube tv” or “old tv” but I live near a major city so most people know what they’re selling. I’ve done a few gamecube picoboots that are way harder but like I said I might try on my POS sharp tv!
Thanks for the quick and helpful replies, I hope other people learn things from this thread too!
oh yeah, I’ve got instructions for it, a BA-5 is pretty easy. But I’m terrified of messing it up because it’s the only trinitron in my area that’s a reasonable price (300 for a kv-20fs120?!) and I’m a little out of my depth here. But I had no idea about BNC connectors, so thanks on that. Maybe I’ll start on my cheapo sharp crt and work my way up. You seem super knowledgeable, and thanks for the help!
God I need a Scart modded crt so bad but I’m so scared of breaking the trinitron (I’ve got the experience but I always second-guess myself and end up ruining it). Anyone have experience with the retroTINK rgb2comp?
Holy jeepers! 12 grand usd for a game! Never grew up around these but they’re the only games I emulate seeing how it’s 400usd for a aes everdrive and 1.2k for a console (in bad condition). The games really are beautiful though. Fatal fury has some of my favorite pixel art to date!
