Hi to all,
Mad question,we have several old games consoles, old Nintendo 64 and others, but they don't work with our new tv, only the old crt, something to do with the refresh rate I think. Don't quote me I am a middle-aged woman, just like playing games! Don't want to get rid of the old games machines, but the old tv is like a dinosaur in the house, it takes up loads of room.
Has anyone got the same problem, or a good solution!
Thanks for looking.

you just need to find the right cables pop into your local game or gamstation store explain the problem and they should point yu out to the correct cablesReplies to posts are always welcome, If I have made a mistake in the post, I am human, tell me nicely and it will be corrected. If your reply cannot be nice, has an underlying issue, or you believe that you are God, please post in another forum. Thank you0 -
I've had 1980's computers running on a 32" LG so a Nintendo64 should work.0

My Nintendo 64 runs perfectly well in my LG HD 32" TV, using the supplied default cables.0
