Hey guys! Real quick, anyone know how to change your avatar? I got a wicked Gambit image I'd like to put up. Haha thx.
Ok, I recently found my old NES console and two controllers! One being the large one with a joystick. Oh yeah!!! Really excited to play Double Dragon with my son. One problem though: NES has red/white/yellow plugs but my TV only has HDMI ports. A friend showed me a composite video converter https://bzbexpress.com/CON-AV-HD4K-Composite-S-video-to-4K-HDMI-Converter-by-KanexPro.html . If this is what's needed, the $100 price reasonable? Because I'm seeing units on amazon for only $15 https://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Converter-Composite-Video-Audio/dp/B077T53C6W/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1520537885&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=composite+video+converter&psc=1 . Why the big price difference? Will the cheap one be good enough? Thanks for the help!
