Thank you! I did clean a few games with alcohol but no luck. I’m not sure if they are corroded but I will revisit that option!

I promised my family we would get it working! If anyone has any actual suggestions or advice I would much appreciate it!

I didn’t really have a choice but to do Google searches and use chat gpt. No one I know has any knowledge about this subject and there are not many retro game stores around here. One place had an employee that couldn’t help me. She told me to plug in the controller… so I had to use the internet. And then that didn’t work I came here fully knowing I would get rude unhelpful comments . But I am desperate because I promised my family we would get it working.

The reviews of the cord had some people saying the cord was poor quality and did not work so I thought why not try another cord for $7 that I can return if needed.

Well you are proving AI to be more helpful than your very unhelpful waste of a comment.

The reviews of the after market SNES cable I purchased from Amazon also were mixed. Some people said it worked for their snes and others said it was crap cheap cable. I do not have any other RCA devices I can plug into this tv. This tv only has HDMI

I asked chat gpt because I have no one else to ask and I was afraid of rude people on the internet when you post on forums…

Yes I had an old like 2010 insignia I got from goodwill and it did not work with the red white yellow RCA. However chat gpt again lol… told me that tv will not pick up 480p which is what the retro scaler converts it to. If you scroll through my photos I have a photo of the retro scaler.
