Best consoles outputs.

Still bums me out that SCART never became a standard here. Instead we were bombarded with a number of other options which only served to make shopping for cables and such a somewhat confusing and expensive mess. Not to mention what the backs of our TVs used to look like. I've got a Sony DLP Wega that has a zillion inputs. 3 composite & S-video (yes, I said THREE S-video), 2 component, 1 DVI with RCA audio, analogue audio out (RCA & optical), plus a 4th Comsposite & S-video input on the front of the set.

I completely agree. I never had a DLP, but I used to have one of those rear projection LCDs which was somewhat similar. It had a crap load of inputs on the back. My 1080P Sony LCD is one of the earlier 1080p TVs so it also has a crap load of inputs including one s-video which is sort of rare for a 1080p.

I got my dad's 2nd ever LCD TV off him. 46" Samsung. Composite, Component, Svideo, VGA and HDMI. Running my SNES/Genesis through the HD Retrovision cables into this looks amazing

I have a Samsung LCD that's the same. Bought it in 2007. It doesn't get along with older consoles very well though :/
