A significant minority of the Atari 8-bit home computer games did, and the display hardware is not that much different between them: the computers add the ANTIC dma display list controller but the GTIA functions very much like the 2600 TIA.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@Longhorn Engineer:

Ok, you&#039;ve used an video filter and a buffer to get more quality. I&#039;ve an old 20&#039;&#039; TV, so your mod doesn&#039;s make much difference in the image with my TV. I don&#039;t even have an s-video input. So with only a few passive components i get what i want.
You have right, i don&#039;t even have read your article at the first time. What i wanted to tell was that with a few passive components it is possible to get something similar.

PS: Sorry for the &quot;resistances&quot; word. I meaned  &quot;resistor&quot;. I&#039;m from Argentina and i&#039;ve learned english without a teacher, just by my self, so i&#039;m not the best spelling :P

I didn&#039;t wanted to criticize your work, just saying that is possible by other ways to get something like that, with some less quality.

@jeremiah:

I didn&#039;t remember very well how the nes worked, but i do remember that i&#039;ve made an stereo sound mod to the famicom (nes clone). If it had Y/V/C lines it might be possible i think...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[sweet! i&#039;m reading this a few days after i pick up 2x 2600&#039;s, a 5200, and a 7800 on craigslist.

btw, i know for a fact the first model (fat) usa snes is s-video ready... and maybe rgb as well?
the 2nd model (mini) would need a board such as this, i believe.

i think the nes needs a chip from one of the arcade boards (playchoice-10 or vs. unisystem) to do rgb...]]></description>
