    Awesome....I just tried it out with the NES RF and it looks great. The picture wasn't nearly as good as the Jag RF unit.

    Rf's are pretty much universal...although if i am brutally forced to use an RF(i'll only do it if AV is unavailable, such as atari 2600/5200/7800, coleco, intv...) i swear by those $4 adapters that sylentwulf sells on electricquarter.com

    but if it's anything past 1984(nes,sms, etc) the same rf switch will work for any system..i had a NES Rf on my tg16 until i got my turbo booster...can't believe some fool paid me ten bucks for the original NEC rf....

    Hmmm, what I meant to say in my last post was that the picture with the Jag's RF wasn't nearly as good as the picture I got with the NES RF.....go figure.

    Krazy_kamino, I agree that A/V is way better than using an RF, but unfortunately my toploading NES, my TG-16, and now my Jaguar don't have the A/V option, so they all share one NES RF switch.

    top loader, i understand the problemo there...thats why i use a toaster model...but i thought jaguar has av output for a (perhaps uncommon) av cable? and as for turbografx...i HIGHLY reccomend a turbo booster. i paid 35 frickin bucks for mine but it was sooo worth it...i wasnt so hot on tg16, but now i see the greatness of it. dang, later dudes, i'm gettin a legendary axe 2 itch...

    I made a s-video cable for my jag with an edge card connector, as well as a composite cable for my bare tg16 with a 73pin connector. Deathskull Labs has pinouts if you're interested in that.

    Sounds like that was a little bit o work just for an S-Video connector. You know that Atari DID make one ( S-Video), thats whay i've got, all be it still in the baggie, cause mines not hooked up at the moment ( I have pics if needed). I might even be able to get a few more sealed ones too, if anyone cares (would take a day or two though).
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.
