He STILL doesnt game on a CRT

What possible reason would I have for playing on a CRT?
The only real reason is for minimal input delay from the television itself, but we're going to reach a point sooner rather than later where modern screen technology will be damn-near lagless, so why not use something that actually works with all current generation and past generation (with modifications) hardware?

>retroshit
I use standalone emulators when i realized retroarch was often far behind in versions. I'm sort of interested though, post how I'd do it.

>he has PVMs
>doesn't even connect them to PC
PLEASE tell me how to do this
googling it leads me to decades old instructions about obscure video cards and shit

Just use VGA to BNC cables I reckon?

Got the 25" version of this monitor. It has manufacture date of 1989 and still works perfectly. These things must have been built like tanks.

your graphics card will need to support RGB over the D-SUB connector (I reckon it doesn't, those connectors were typically used for projectors and other pro video equipment)

What are your hobbies champ?

Nice find user I have an 2130QM (which is I believe pretty identical but the 2130 has scart RGB) and the image is superb. Also love how you need to fiddle with the little screws inside to change the settings.

Got mine right here for saturn, 32X and PC engine games

Meh I will stick to my normal Trinitron

>$20
If I could find one I would do it. I'm going to hit up the boomer on the other side of town and hope the repair is under $100. It only needs like 2 caps replaced

Yeah this anons right, this article goes a little deeper into this.

I'm continuing to go to thrift stores and pawn shops in hopes that I'll get lucky and catch a trinitron at one of them. So far it's only netted me an Atari 800XL PC but at least that's something.

Not when this sexy best exists.

It hurts man, I've checked and no one here sells them either so it's not like I can ship one from the US with all the horror stories I've read.

I have a CRT, but I don't like all of the extra wires that has to do with playing retro consoles. I emulate on my PC. I'm no speed runner, so I don't really give a damn about accuracy. Was wondering, though..what are the best CRT filters used for playing the SNES/N64/Saturn/PS1 on?

Buy it from China through eBay you catboy

Sadly with the high demand/prices now days if it seems to good to be true it almost always is.

Nice try

what do? I'd really just like a new CRT but I doubt that's a thing that even exists.

I got my first PVM 20M2U for free and it worked fine. The university I was at at the time. Contacted the tv department, turns out they had it in storage for years

Yikes

that's a double yikes from me. The aftermarket cables for GCN are kinda neat though.

The fuck...

Backups? The game was never ported to those consoles, I could play it on the Wii but what's the point when I have a Wii U for Wii games in HD plus the gamecube looks better

Wii component cables - $30
Gamecube HDMI plug-in -$300

Can't be that hard finding one? I mean the commercial grade ones are cheap as dirt nowadays. And ye nobody is producing them anymore.
