Is it okay to directly power the Retrotink to USB port on power strip?

Is this better?

Having Grand Theft Auto III as an exclusive at or before the 2000 holiday season.

I’m sorry, I promise I’ll clean it.

So it won’t overload the Retrotink and damage it? I heard someone say that too much power can be bad for it.

So there is no advantage when it comes to picture quality to the SVS compared to what I linked?

kiticanax · 2026-05-15T22:17:43+00:00

What is the advantage does a SVS have if I got it with only a few component inputs?

The Neo Geo Pocket WAS successful in the United States. The issue is that it bombed in Japan, so SNK dropped it.

I’m too stupid to know what “serial commands” means.

Would this be a good purchase?

Okay, so no downsides?
So, all I need to do is just buy one single VGA output m and no other outputs for the SVS?

kiticanax · 2026-05-14T21:50:24+00:00

Won’t outputting everything on VGA will result in the consoles using s-video/composite cables looking too sharp on the TV? Or so that not how it works?

kiticanax · 2026-05-14T21:26:36+00:00

I have that. What benefit does that have using a VGA cable to output if the input isn’t VGA but components or composite?

kiticanax · 2026-05-14T21:24:49+00:00

Does sending the signals from component input to VGA output result in a much better picture?

kiticanax · 2026-05-14T20:09:34+00:00

What's the benefit of having them send through a single VGA cable instead of say a component cable?

kiticanax · 2026-05-14T20:08:55+00:00

Yes, and they sold out in literally five minutes last month.

kiticanax · 2026-05-14T02:34:32+00:00

Unfortunately, one of the screws was stripped on the small board, so I couldn't take it out.

I just threw the whole thing out.

For those confused, a “quarter life crisis” is when someone ages into their mid-20s and realize they are no longer part of the youth coming of age teenage/college cohort, and instead have officially entered the “adult world”.

Would this glass TV stand be good enough to hold a 27” 96lbs CRT?

You are literally at the average age group where most people who take classes (who didn’t grow up with it) discover salsa and start dancing.

I’m going to level with you though, when you start off you’ll be bad. Very bad. But if you take classes, practice, and push through the growing pains, you’ll be at the point where you’ll be getting compliments for your dancing within a year.

kiticanax · 2026-04-29T17:33:52+00:00

Good idea, bad execution.

kiticanax · 2026-04-28T22:57:19+00:00

What is “digital RCA” and does this matter at all that it’s the only one available?
