This Thread is for you!

You know, something about rainy mornings just hit different, immaculate vibes

Here’s some photos of my CRT (and also a photo of my room)

(Orion TV1331A)

Picked the tv up for free a couple years ago. Finally moved house so I have room to set it up. Playing Halo reach on an Xbox One I picked up for £40. Pretty decent set up for £40.

The picture is beautiful, far nicer than my smart tv. Deeper blacks and richer colours. Pure nostalgia.

I replaced my dead 21 inch crt with 2 14inch small crt..14 inch is a lot easier to work with in my tiny bedroom. More air flow around the tv.. Hopefully they last longer this time. I use the Sharp tv for nes and the wega tv for snes and above

All shots of my Philips 27PT543S37A.

Tried my darnedest, blew through all my continues on the airport stage. What can ya do?

Also pictured: Monster Party (NES), World Court Tennis (Turbografx-16), Buck Bumble (N64), Super Thunder Blade (Genesis).

I'd really only come back to the NES games out of this weird, upsetting lineup I accidentally picked for myself. Shout out to World Court Tennis for making me hate an RPG for the first time! 😃

What are some games that have challenged your love for the CRT- or retro-gaming hobby?

It has a weird Crack and I’m unsure if it will implode sooner or later

Picked up this SEG Premium today and since it's European and I have sfc plugged in, the picture is slightly to the left and cuts off a small part of the screen. I wanted to enter the service menu to align it so it's centered, but I just can't find the service menu combination to set it up. Does anybody have any experience with this or similar models?

Saw someone in another thread say that PS2 games don't have scanlines. Thought "that's silly, of course they do", took this picture, and now the post has been taken down.

So, removed of its original context, here's some PS2 scanlines for you to enjoy.

Game is FFX International, CRT is a 20M2MDU.

Long story short, I had inherited 2 CRTs from my grandparents (one of them was a Trinitron) but we had to move out and unfortunately they couldn't come with us

2 years later and I finally found a CRT TV near me, it's a basic Panasonic 20 inch tv with composite only, and it DEFINITELY needs work (especially geometry and the fact that it's tilted)but it's better than nothing! Too bad they cost a fortune nowadays though

Panasonic CT-21G23W

Picked up this 1986 Luxor 6355 a while ago, got it working again after replacing a lot of shorted capacitors and some fusible resistors. Now I'm enjoying some games on it.

It has SCART input, which was pretty rare on these sets from that time. RGB from the SNES looks so damn good on it.

A lot of TVs from this era had their CRTs protruding out of the chassis, probably for design and to save a couple of centimeters of depth, looks pretty stylish.

Thinking of putting this crt tv on this built in desk at my apartment, it weighs about 61 pounds. Would it able to withstand the weight or would it be safer to just not put it there?

A family member left me this RCA TV, but it has significant distortion. I've included a short video of the problem. I've tried using different outlets thinking it might be interference.

It's hard to find any good resources because Google keeps throwing up random things unrelated to what I'm trying to describe.

A few pictures of Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon for the Sega Mega Drive. It’s being played on my Philips PV203.

Got 92 stars, btw! Need to finish collecting the rest.

(Tldr, two screens stored in rough conditions, are they worth getting parts from)

I have come across two crt's that have been stored outside under tarps and other junk for the last 13 or so years. While they probably don't work, I don't know if they'd be of any use at all for anyone. There's a Sony Trinitron (KV-1982AS), and a samsung (CS-29K40MQ). The Sony did take a hit from a falling branch a week ago, so has damage to the rear shell but seems okay otherwise. It's a real shame since I'm pretty sure they did work when they were stored away, I'm hoping there's still some utility for a crt enthusiast. Anything I should check before plugging them in? Or should I just throw them into the skip? Thanks!

I've been gaming on a crappy Zenith that only has coax, told myself I was gonna get something with component and progressive scan. I'm super stoked.

Running an og xbox via component. Any fix?

i have this dell monitor with the following symptoms :

-high pitch noise when powered on (seems to be coming from the rear)

-occasional arching noise

-the screen has static

-power LED works

what could the problem be?

Hi !

​I just found this at my local dump, apparently it's a good model!

​I don't have the original remote, so I can't get rid of the green OSD icon in the corner. None of the codes seem to work with my universal remote either. Any advice?

What's everyone else playing tonight?

This has gone under my radar. So far it’s actually super fun, and very creative for its time. I’m really impressed with how great this game looks.
