I use the scart adaptor from my cube on my 64 (and will do on a snes if I ever pull my finger out and get one) probably the best way to do it now as my rf lead for my 64 bit the dust years ago (and it didnt look good on non crt tvs)

I played Golden Eye not so long ago on my LCD and it was a massive blur, I've got a plasma now but haven't tried it again, I hope you get better results because it ruined the nestalgia for me
. Yet games like DK64, Mario 64 & Kart, Doom, Quake ect all looked fine.

Anyone know what's the best way to hook up a game cube or any console to a LCD tv , I am using rgb but the picture quality is crap
It sounds like you're using the yello phono (composite) cable... RGB Scart is the best for a UK Cube I think.

yea the red white yellow lead is what i am using but it looks terrible on my tv,is there a gadget that you can plug old consoles in and it converts it to work on hdmi inputs on tv

The best solution is to acquire an Wii and play Gamecube games via component.

Here is the latest addition to my growing Sega Game Gear collection
These white game gears where never commercially released, they were given out as gifts to developers in Japan. Widely considered as the "Holy Grail" of game gears ! Cost me an arm and a leg, could easily have bought a PS3 and a 360 (well pre-owned anyway) for what I paid but I am extremely happy to finally own one !

Need to start hitting the boot sales again, great for retro console stuff (when it works)
