From what I've seen, the mod required to get the SNES cable to work on the N64 cable seemed simple enough.  It didn't have any super small soldering points which is what usually turns me off to mods.  It's something I might consider if I ever get a 4th cable.

I'm using the Retrovision component cables on my SNES, SMS and Genesis/32x/CD.  So far I'm very happy with the setup and quality of the image.  I cannot compare it to the "RGB scart to HDMI via converter" method since I have no experience with it, but it is a step up from what I was using previously (s-video for SNES and composite for the two Sega systems). 
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

This kickstarter game reminds me of "Shadow of the Colossus"

In the gameplay description, they state it's like Shadow of the Colossus among other games.

You guys should really check out Xydonia if you are into 90's Genesis Shmups.  They've mentioned trying to do a physical release for a classic console too but it's PC only for now.  I kicked them $10 for the digital version.

I totally agree!  The physical PC mock up looks just like Sega CD packaging which is really cool but I would think a Dreamcast release would make the most sense if they did an actual release.

I think I just may have to fund both of these! I don't think Prey for the Gods is going to have any trouble making in stretch goal, or blowing it away for that matter! Xydonia, I would love to see a physical copy of some sort other than PC. This game screams console gaming and I'd be throwing my money at them for a hard copy!

Will be down IF it hits consoles and IF it gets physical release. Looks great, but their packages are total weak sauce, with things like "high-res digital map" and "digital art book".  Gotta spend $125 before you get a physical anything :-\

I really want a physical release for the consoles.
