I like to see other people’s setups, so I’ve decided to share mine!

Retro Setup

A/V

Samsung 39" 1080p LED HDTV

I’m using what used to be my main television set, a 37" Samsung LED 1080p, from before all TV’s were suddenly “smart”. I’ve really gotten some mileage out of it, since I’ve had it since 2014.

Consoles

Nintendo Entertainment System

This NES came to me from eBay pretty decrepit. I replaced the cartridge PIN connector, disabled the lockout chip, and had to mount the controller ports on the outside of the case due to broken plastic. It’s a little yellowed, but I’m fine with it, and it works great.

I use 8BitDo N30 2.4ghz wireless controllers. They kick ass. They have the same basic shape and feel of the official controller (a must for me).

I’m using RCA composite cables with dual mono (for fake stereo) outputs into a RetroTink 2X Mini. It’s been a great setup for playing NES.

More to come later…
