Here's a full review of my new favorite arcade stick / spinner / trackball controller: The R10 Pro from #Fightbox. I showed all its modes, lag tested...and there's even Tempest 2000 setup info for the MiSTer's Jaguar core in the accompanying post!: youtu.be/VmjvweSZhdw

Interestingly, while this has been known about for a long time, it was only ever properly reverse engineered in the last few years by decapping and studying the system's video chip. There's a really good write-up about it on RetroRGB:
PC Engine palette improvements - the amazing people behind the technology
One day, all the CRTs and all the original consoles will be gone, and I'll be eternally grateful for the efforts of those who preserved it all. This story began for me with a tweet. David Shadoff posted that the RGB palette on the popular multi-system emulator Mednafen for the PC Engine module (r

Looking at you RetroRGB, Game Sack and a certain dude who likes to elongate his woooords.
Anyone that buys consoles/handhelds or makes youtube vids in support (idgaf if you "didn't pay for it") is straight up supporting and agreeing with his viewpoints. You can't feign ignorance and idk how anyone can just dismiss any guilt about it. That's also gross.

There are other/better choices.

they make a straight up hdmi/composite to rf adapter that sends it wirelessly to a tv so you can go one step further www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx54...

@adriansdigitalbasement.com There are some really interesting features added to the Tink 4K/2K/CE that you should check out, in particular the part about the multiple resolutions (Sega Saturn example given) I think it would be useful for you with computers youtu.be/aTpQM7u-k-U?... via @retrorgb.com

Awesome video from @mattkc.com! It's a must-watch for anyone who's interested in how game controllers work...
...and of course, anyone with a CDi, just because :)

MattKC’s Genesis & CDi Controller Overview - RetroRGB
https://youtu.be/EC4GWLAMe4M MattKC recently posted a video that's about how he made a Genesis to CDi controller adapter...but it's actually a lot more than that. Matt goes over how these controllers work, starting with the origin of the connector, the Atari 2600. Matt's overview of how that works, how the Genesis 3-button controller adapted to it

Looks like @stoneagegamer.com now has stock of both the 6-button and 8-button versions of those awesome #Fighbox 1ms-lag arcade sticks I've been loving. Including the "fighter jet cockpit" version! Details and links to multiple sellers in the post:

https://youtube.com/shorts/3MIzo7Jkd1s I recently tested and reviewed the 6-button version of the R10 Pro arcade stick from Fightbox: A pro-level arcade controller that also includes a spinner and trackball. It was lag tested at less than one millisecond average and everything worked right from one single USB cable. When I saw this new version with artwork

I'm live, testing some HDMI to YPbPr converters, to see if they're compatible with the 240p/480i signals most of us would use. And if not, are they good for 480p, or just trash? Let's find out! www.youtube.com/live/r-_0vDt...

Looks like we found another 240p-compatible, zero-lag HDMI to YPbPr converter! Links and more details in the post: retrorgb.com/240p-480i-co...
240p/480i Compatible HDMI to YPbPr Component Video Adapter - RetroRGB
I just found another zero-lag, HDMI to YPbPr (component video) converter that's compatible with 240p, 480i, 480p and above. It has a standard HDMI input and the YPbPr + LR audio output cables are built-in; This is handy, but the cable surely isn't going to be as shielded as something like HD Retrovision component cables.

If there are no existing profiles for the cheaper scalers, the RetroTink 4K ain't cheap but it eats non-standard video timings for breakfast. Alternatively you could buy a not-cheap capture card, ie. any Datapath model recommended by RetroRGB.

Mega-AV: Sega Triple Bypass Successor - RetroRGB
https://youtu.be/MJirRCqygJ8 The Mega-AV is a mod from RIP-Felix, RGBeter and Villahed94 that bypasses the audio and video from Sega Genesis / Mega Drive and aims to be the best analog experience possible from the console. It's a successor to the Sega Triple Bypass and while it does slightly improve the audio and RGB video

I finally found a power strip with individual switches that should fit many retro gaming power bricks. Check out the post for a short video, links and more info: retrorgb.com/crst-metal-p...
CRST Metal Power Strip with Individual Switches - RetroRGB
https://youtu.be/XOBfwRsX-Og I found a 6-outlet power strip, with each input having it's own power toggle, along with a main switch. It can fit most large power bricks we retro gamers use, as long as you alternate ports and there should be room for standard plugs between them as shown in the thumbnail above. It’s also
