I have 5 consoles hooked up to HD Retrovision’s cables to a 27 inch Sony Trinitron and they all look amazing. Saturn, Genesis, Modded PC Engine, SNES and PS1. Its hard to describe how amazing these cables are on a CRT. There is no compatibility issues or lag when using these cables on a CRT. I have two gcompsw component switches daisy chained together and it allows for automatic switching. Now I guess I need to RGB my N64 and make it my 6th console to use these amazing cables.

Crazy my cables literally arrived today and I couldn't stop admiring the build quality

Could you do a side by side comparison comparing it against regular av cables and against the new HD clone systems?

I kickstarted these cables. Love them!

I can confirm that these cables also work on an NESRGB modded OG Famicom! It looks just as good as it does via Framemeister+RGB Cable on my 40 Inch Samsung LED TV! I plan on getting one of the Genesis cables as well when Castlemania gets them back in stock! Great video Ron and I look forward to your future videos!

These also work great on an RGB modded NES with a Multi-Out Port!

Every time a new video from mlp arrives I know it's gonna cost me money.. Was looking for this cable a few months ago.. Now I have confirmation that it works. Thanks for the videos dude. Keep em coming..

I'm using s-video on a retrotink 2x. Looks pretty damn good to me exept for Resident Evil 2 with all the resolution switching which causes some blackouts between scenes sometimes. I'm in a PAL region so only some early French N64's can be modded with RGB. They are super expensive so you might as well get the UltraHDMI. Special PAL modded S-Video cables can be had fairly cheap though.(builtin luminance correction if I'm not mistaking).Yeah in Europe we officially only got composite on the N64 "multi out" *oh the irony* . These RGB to component cables do look interesting for my snes though which does support RGB. I'll still have to connect them to the Retrotink 2x because my TV doesn't do 240p in any acceptable way. Stretches it out to some horrible ultrawide pixellated mess.

You should try running Perfect Dark in Hi Res mode with this cable. I think it's doing 480i when it does that and you can run it in widescreen.

I just got the Genesis cables today. I was blown away with how good it looked. I used it on a LCD and a CRT that supports component. I was pretty hesitant over $50 cables but it’s worth every penny. Genesis probably is a bigger change that SNES since it has shitty composite and no S Video support without a mod.

Ordered a set. Thanks for the deal. In my living room I’m using the super nt but in my game room I’m running a stock SNES hooked to a Sony wega crt. My wega has hdmi and component so using these cables on it will look great. Now you have me thinking about modding my n64.

Konami actually told you to hide the gameplay?! That's petty Konami!

If you’re TV doesn’t support 240P over component or doesn’t scale it up very well, you’re still going to need an external scaler. Also, who knows how much longer TVs will support component inputs.

I have a Genesis Model 2 VA1.8 with that godawful Samsung video encoder (so no S-Video mod) and the HDRV cables were a revelation. No more muddy, jailbar'd composite output for me!

Should have added can your tv output 240p. Mine cannot :(

coupon still works! thanks can't wait till i get these cables

But you need a quality scaler to make any use of these cables on an HDTV. Scaling 240p to 1080p or 4K with your TV's built in scaler will not give the greatest of results, especially in terms of input lag. Not to mention a lot of TVs will see 240p as 480i making things even worse.

so wait, this has been a possibility out of the stock port all this time and we are just now getting these? mind=blown

Thank you for these awesome reviews. I wanted to ask I’m very not tech savvy. If these HD Retrovision cables will work on these newer 65” HD Samsung flatscreen TVs 2019 and up ?

I'd really like to see a comparison between emulation, UltraHDMI, and HDRetrovision cable output. I'm mostly interested in what edge the UltraHDMI might or might not have over emulation.

From the dawn of the 90's they came moving not so silently down through the decades. playing many great games. waiting until the time of the gathering when the few consoles that remained powered on to the last. no one ever knew these cables were among you....... until now.

Great video show casing the HD retrovision cables. Quick Question how did you record your game footage? As for some reason my Elgato HD won't recognise the component cable to record I don't think it likes the signal at all. Any help would be great - The only way I can get it record properly if it 1st runs through my framemeister out into HDMI..... but not via the cables themselves. Also all my systems are PAL consoles so I'm using a PAL SNES

Ron, what TV were you using? Everyone should make sure their TV supports 240p over component. Not all modern TV’s support 240p over component. CRTs with component should work fine. The HDRetrovision website has some tests that can be run to see if your TV is compatible and a list of already tested TVs. These are still excellent cables to use to get the best picture to an upscaler.

used that coupon code. Appreciate it brother!

great video bro

I did not find these cables to be much better than using a properly made S-Video cable paired with a Retro Tink 2x Pro. I really cannot tell the difference when switching from S-Video to Component. Maybe if it was a side-by-side comparison it would help. Though I do not have two of everything so I can't do that.

Cool I didn't think of using them on a n64 and someone in the comments also mentioned the famicom av I guess they should also work on a pal gamecube

I own the Sega genesis ones and they are GREAT! When I have the cash the SNES ones are on my list for certain.

I would like to you compare this cable with the Purple Monster S Video for Snes and N64 and see how much difference there is.

yeeess look sooo beautiful!! Do you think these cables will work on a Samsung slim ¿¿ it´s not the HD version . It has 480i through component inputs. I just saved that thing from garbage and repaired it

People undervalue a QUALITY cable... you can surely buy a piece of crap Chinese component cable, but you will get artifacting and buzz because they aren't properly shielded. Also, they aren't hand made and they aren't pre-tested to the extent as a professional cable maker. I've only splurged on custom cables once and I haven't regretted it for a second. The difference is SO apparent.

What if I use them for a crt tv with component support?

I've upgraded everything to component along with my extron crosspoint. Friggn quality

How does the Sega CD look running through those cables? Super curious

I just preordered genesis 2 with 1 adaptor. yayyyy

Really love these cables! Have you tried their new PS1 adapter? I've been quite impressed with the captures I grabbed from it for my channel.

I can't find these to buy.

This also works on RGB modded NES and PAL GameCube

Does anyone know if the n64 needs an rgb mod if ur gonna use an ossc

I have a crt tv with component, will these cables work for that? Because my crt can only output 480i.

So, to do all my systems that need these cables, I'm looking at $500. Still cheaper than a Framemeister, SCART cables, SCART switcher, and JP21 to Euroscart cable

Watching this in 2020 , trying to figure out if I should get these versus hdmi with upscaling and line doubling as my HDTV puts out 240p natively. I still want a SuperNT, but I'm waiting till another run comes out. I have the cables by HDRetrovision for PS2, and I love them. Any suggestions would be great!

Will these cables still work with a non modded n64?

can ANYONE out there demo this cable on a bubble tube (SD) CRT that has component? very few bubble tubes have component, mine does, it's not progressive, so i'd like to see what it looks like. it is a 40" TV.

Nothing beats Genesis scart to component!

I’ve been waiting for 4 weeks for Hd retrovision to restock I’m getting so impatient I really wanna play my ps2 games 😩

Should I get these cables to plug into my CRT with component, or is it not worth it unless you're running it through an HDTV?

Hey, do you know how this would compare against an OEM Nintendo S-video cable on the SNES?

I’m sorry new to this, I just dug up my N64 so what needs to be done to use these cables with it?

I have both the sega and snes hd retrovision cables. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good component splitter? My tv only has one component input. Most on Amazon look like they might be junk.

Did you use only the cable without an upscaler direct to your led tv?? I have a 40“ samsung led tv that have the rgb sockets red green and so on it’s backside. Also have a „Gaming Mode“ on my tv! And I wonder if a upscaler is still necessary with using this hd retrovision cable?

I’ve got an SNES HD Retrovision cable that doesn’t work on my Sony Bravia TV. It does however display my PS1 240p games and ICO over my PS2’s component cable. I know it’s accepting a 240p signal because my old TV would blank screen at the PS1 and ICO 240p content. Any thoughts to why the TV isn’t locking onto the 240p from the SNES cables? Is the 240p from the PS1/2 component different than the 240p coming from the SNES HD Retrovision cable?

So my obs is not recognizing the component. How do you get it to recognize

Does it work with a GameCube if it was RGB modded? I might get these cables instead of composite...

There's a new update for the Super NT bro 🖒 nice video

Gooin patout?

I thought you couldn't RGB mod a jungle green N64? I've looked, no details except that the chip number is incompatible. Can you link me to any solutions that will let me mod my jungle 64?

Is the HD cable compatible with original Super Famicom console?

How were you able to capture the 240p signal with your Elgato? Do you have an component to HDMI converter?

anybody with a sony x930e or x900e can forget about it or an lg oled, these cables work for most samung tvs but if you have a newer 4k tv or are planning on upgrading these might not be for the future as every year less tvs will support them, i really want these and my samung tv supports them fine but i was planning on upgrading my tv sometime this year so i dont know what to do now, i would much rather play my original snes like this over the newer super nt for the simple reason that the super nt is not a super nintendo, say what you want about how great it is but its just not a super nintendo and i did not grow up playing a super nt every day i want the actual super nintendo look and feel but this might not be the answer in the longer run

for the N64, I'm very curious. How does the SCART paired with an upscaler compare to component?

Will the snes cable work with an rgb modded nes?

To go a little more in detail with the component cables for N64....even tho they will only really utilize full potential when RGB modded is combined....however can I still use these component cables without a mod even tho knowing it wont be improving picture....can I still just use them natively or will the system not even output without the added RGB chip??? Sorry but your "there's a Big but" doesnt answer that specific question. Otherwise ima get the MonsterC S-video to N64 cables and use a Framemeister S-video to HDMI upscale. Im not into modding or soldering classic hardware. Let me know I am very interested in improving picture on my N64 without soldering

work with famicom av?

Does it work on the GameCube?

Are you using these on a LCD/LED TV or a CRT? I heard that a large amount of LED/LCD TV's either don't or incorrectly display 240P over component, probably something you want to mention before people start blindly buying these and yelling "WTF MLP?! Why don't these work on my TV?" Did you notice any input lag with your TV doing the 240 to 1080/4K upscaling? Looking forward to the Genesis video as well, thanks!

How are you able to capture this footage? My elgato can’t see 240p.

Madlittlepixel, I have these cables and a Super NT. Quick question, I noticed my super NT shows lines on the screen and I'm wondering if you noticed this and if it bothers you? It shows up when the system is displaying solid colors, usually blueish colors. It looks like a grid that correlates to the size of the screen. If I widen or stretch the screen the pattern changes. I just noticed this last night and now it's bugging me. I love my HD Retrovision cables but my wife doesn't love my huge CRT so I got the super NT so I could get rid of my CRT but now with these lines I'm not sure what to do.

Do you think this would work on the GameCube?

what capture card are you using for the cables?

Are they selling those again!?

Man I am so tired of these companies and there issues with people showing games on KZfaq. Get over it guys. You are losing nothing by having someone play or show your game online, especially on a 20/30yo game.

Doesn't the n64 need to be rgb modded to technically output a sharper resolution with these cables??never mind had an add moment and wasn't listening

Overpriced
