People with some console modding experience! We need you!

I figures as wrong as I was (completely idiotic) i’ll “pick your brain little” to find more, I am interested in RGB video connections
I am assuming for getting RGB signals out of almost every console isn’t going to be cheap.
Putting aside consoles with HDMI/DVI, VGA and Scart connections what other options are available.

As for my own personal use I not bothering with RGB on the NES as its been though enough as is as I mix and match parts from 2 broken consoles to get one in good working order, only the 72 pin game cart connector is brand new.

I asked “Does component video offer RBG signals or this is a misconception”?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Component_video#YPbPr_analog_component_video
then I saw this article and saw Componet isn’t RGB but splits chroma and luma* (colorless * *components) *

Then I be came more confused dose it matter if there a Chroma and luma split in the video signal compared to RGB or are these 2 separate methods to get the same results?

**

Luma is colorless but chroma is color information. YPrPb is not the same as RGB.

Part of the reason to use Luma/Chroma schemes is easy compatability with black and white displays.**

Why do you need a vga switch. Do you have a second device using vga like a dreamcast, or am I missing something.

I went total ocd and set up cable tie mounts in a grid fashion on the back of my component shelf, and organized my cabling that way.

A lot of 16 bit and older consoles have rgb out, either directly available like the snes or genesis with the appropriate cable, or easily accessible for a modder like n64, pce. Later consoles all have component or better. Older stuff is hit and miss - a lot of the computer systems have rgb out, but stuff like atari 2600 and such have at best s-video after modding.

The only really hard one is NES, and emulation of that is pretty good these days.

You can get French 2600’s and 7800’s for RGB.

Not just for me, I figure I can’t be the only one who can benefit from such a thing so I’ve been asking and googling and figure I’ll chalk it up to writing practice.

This thread was for finding people who’d be willing to mod consoles for RGB.
