hmmm

few ways to do it, dunno which is best. Some graphics cards have a Video Input. thats the way i did it.

or a TV card might. or maybe there is a special adaptor for it.


from what i've seen tho, seems a little more grainy, sharper image but more grainy. But as i said. maybe theres a better way to do it then what i did.

I had my DC hooked up to my 17" acer monitor (hey they were good back then).

Looked so mad. Much better than tv. I bought a VGA box from EB and voila. Res is 640x480 I think (much higher than a tv).

Looked magic. Ahh i'll never forget. It'd look sick now on my 19" Trinitron monitor :D

I saw a little device at walmart for $77 that takes Coaxial and RCA and outputs to any VGA monitor

Doesn't the GameCube have an extra output? I always thought it was for high res monitors... :unsure:
