Nintendo 64 Setup

[Jonathan]

Hi guys apolgies  if this is been addressed many times before but I need a little help.

I have an unmodded PAL N64 and a Samsung QLED 50inch tv.  The picture is crap so I bought an upscaler from Amazon.  It was rubbish so I got a kaico line doubler – a little improvement but bought a MClassic to work in conjunction- a little better again.

the picture still isn’t good enough, I am wanting a better picture without modding if possible.

is the best option to buy a CRT tv or do I need to go down the OSSC/modding/retrotink route?

I think I need pros and cons to help choose what to do next.  I’ve already spent out nearly £200 on trying to improve the picture!

 

thanks so much in advance!

Do you have an S-video cable? Whatever upscaler you use you want to be using the best signal possible, so that means S-video not composite.

Thanks BuckoA51,

The Kaico connects direct to the back on the N64.  So it avoids using anything else.

 

thanks, J

Ah so it’s probably a clone/rip off of the Eon version knowing Kaico.

I’d make do for now, Morph and OSSC Pro s-video expansion card are on the way, though both of those options will require you to purchase a good quality S-video cable.

Ok I will do.  Thanks so much for your advice
