This is sort of related to the thread about having too many game systems, but I'll give it its own topic anyways. Currently I have 7 systems (AV Famicom & Disk System, Gamecube, Super NES, N64, Dreamcast, Genesis, and PS2), my DVD player, and my VCR running through the single AV out on my TV. How, you ask? Through AV selectors I got at work. It works like this:
Selector #1 (connected to TV):
Port 1-connected to Selector #2
Port 2-PS2
Port 3-DVD player
Port 4-VCR (my Atari 2600 and cable runs through this puppy as well)
Selector #2:
Port 1-AV Famicom & Disk System
Port 2-Super NES
Port 3-N64
Port 4-Gamecube
So, obviously, I need room for my Genny and Dreamcast. But, my daisy chain scheme has a problem: the video on the systems connected to selector #2 has an annoying habit of blinking out on me. Like, in the middle of a game. (Why it didn't do it the last time I played Mike Tyson's Punch Out!! is beyond me.) So, does anyone have a better solution, or a better selector than the GE ones I'm currently using?
