Howdy.

I set up all of my old game consoles for fun, and feel like there must be a better way. I have an NES on the antenna connector (RG6?), about eight consoles on composite (Y/R/W), and four or five on HDMI. I still have my old school Composite switch, but I need more inputs, and it would be nice to be able to use the TV remote instead of getting my old bones up. My TV has two or three HDMI ports but I need a few more.

Do I just need an RF adapter, a bigger Composite switch, and some kind of HDMI switch, or is there another option I’m not thinking of?

Thanks!

    Yeah, I’m looking at connecting 12 machines?

    Genesis/CD/32X
    Saturn
    Dreamcast

    Turbo Duo

    Gamecube
    Wii

    Playstation
    PS2
    PS3

    Xbox
    Xbox 360
    Xbox One

    Doing the math…

    Control Unit - $40
    Remote - $12
    Composite/Svideo - $30x8 Component - $35x4

    Output - Composite. - $25
    Output - Component. - $25

    $482.

    You know what, fine… VGA In - $25 (*2?)
    VGA Out - $35

    $567.
