I had a Nyko Dreamcast VGA box which I haven't used in awhile. I tried it out this weekend and neither the VGA or S-video are detected by my TV. So, I need a new one.

Does anyone have a Dreamcast VGA cable/box? It doesn't have to be first party, it just has to work. I'm looking to pay a reasonable price, nothing crazy.

Thanks! :)

Tried the same thing with my TV and had no luck. Turns out it's the TV's inability to decode the signal.

Just be certain your TV can handle it.

I actually found that earlier via google. Their VGA box is out of stock. I sent an email asking when they'll be back in stock. I'd prefer to get it from that site because they have cheap shipping and I'd like to get a SNES S-Video cable as well and there's is only like 6 bucks (assuming it works).

How can I tell? My TV has a VGA port.

My old Nyko one has an S-Video output as well. I tried using that and it didn't work either, so I think the box is broken. I know the S-Video input on my TV works fine.

I just Googled my TV's model number with Dreamcast VGA. Turns out I have a VGA port but it only supports RGB in.
