The Super Magic Drive, manufactured by Front Far East, is a copier that dumps game cartridge info to four different types of floppy disks or to a PC directly via a parallel port. These files come in SMD format, which in turn can be used on an emulator. In addition, putting different floppy disks in the Super Magic Drive allows them to be playable on the Sega Mega Drive.
It also has features for supporting battery-backed RAM present in some game cartridges, as well as providing functions for disk management. With an adapter, the Super Magic Drive can copy and play SNES games too. Another allows PC Engine games to be copied, but the games have to be loaded from the external disk drive every time instead of being able to play them from the memory. In addition, the Super Magic Drive serves as a Japanese/North American/European ROM converter.

Voultar's THS7374-based board This is a great TG-16 / PCE amp that sends RGBs through the high-quality THS7374 amplifier that's had the filter turned off for the sharpest possible output. It also has a built-in sync stripper and options for TTL and 75ohm csync. http://voultar.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=53
This is the board I used
Mickcris'THS7374-based board: This amp is another THS7374-based solution (filter off) that outputs a high quality image. This board is very inexpensive and a great choice. Please note that this board doesn't route sync, so you'll need to use composite video as sync, or build your own sync circuit. In many cases, simply using composite video as sync works fine. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/236875-fs-pceturbografx-ths7374-rgb-ampscables-region-switches-and-consoles

The controllers shown are in desperate need of a clean so we'll start with that but also tear them down and restore the response of the buttons to make them feel new again. In a later video in this series, I will take a look back at the controller evolution and how things have changed. We now have DPads, Shoulder buttons, Triggers, Expansion bays, Dual Analog Sticks and Ergonomics that just work. How did this all this technology creep into the controllers we use today... let's take a look back.

Support - patreon.com/GlobalGarageAusRetro Gaming Cables Comparision Explained RGB Cable RGB SCART s-video Component Composite - YouTubeRetro Sales2016-10-05 | This video discusses the various cables and video outputs from retro consoles. When I discuss each cable, the scope of the topic is limited to retro consoles and not the standard itself.
Eg Component for example can produce HD resolutions, but not from retro consoles.
Choosing the right Retro Gaming Cable
Your TV plays a large part in deciding Which is best so if you're a RGB SCART kind of guy, then stick to RGB and upscale it. If your an American who never had the SCART connector on your TV, then stick to Component and Composite.
OK let's clarify some points from the comments!
1. SCART isn't a format, it's a piece of plastic and metal.
2. RGB is the format inside SCART, but it can also carry S-Video and Composite. Please be specific.
3. Resolution is a determining factor when choosing cables! As the consoles got newer came higher resolutions, so naturally you may choose a different cable to get the best out of them. PS2 for example is best used with Component cables as the CONSOLE supports a higher resolution over that format only.
4. RESOLUTION: The term 240p describes a resolution of approximately 320x240 pixels progressively. It means each line is drawn on the screen one after another. Most retro consoles were limited to 240P so RGB was the CLEANEST best.way to get the video to your TV.
If you mess about with 240P, you get 480i
Standard definition television (NTSC) is 480i, a far cry from HDTV's 720p and 1080i. The i stands for interlaced. This means that every 60th of a second, half the image is shown. The first 60th shows the odd lines of the image, the second 60th shows all the even lines. Your eye/brain combines these into one image
Think of 480i as a messed up 240P
Things then stepped up to 480P progressive scan
The Dreamcast is a great example of 480P in the format of VGA.
Traditionally, VGA is 640x480 pixels, and yes can be called the same format as 480P.
So as newer consoles introduced higher resolutions, we have to move to WHICHEVER cable supports that mode. So 480P for example can only easily be had from VGA or Component. It's then the best choice for THAT console.
5. Which cable to use?
IT DEPENDS ON YOUR TV AND EXISTING SETUP!!! There's no real answer for ALL but here's my breakdown.
UPDATE 2020 - I would now recommend a RAD2X HDMI cable if it's available for your console. Check them out here at RGC shorturl.at/vNSV7
Old consoles like Atari - Composite 240P or RF if that's all it had
NINTENDO
Famicom - Composite or RGB modded 240P Super Nintendo - RGB 240P Gamecube - Offical Digital component cables - 480P, otherwise PAL can run RGB 240P and NTSC S-Video 240P N64 - RGB 240P, or modded with Ultra64 to HDMI Wii - Do we even care? Use Component for 480P
SEGA Master System - RGB 240P Mega Drive / Genesis - RGB 240P Saturn - RGB 240P Dreamcast - VGA 480P, or RGB 240P
PS1 - RGB 240P PS2 - Component 480P but RGB can also do 480P when in RGsB mode. Stick to Component as it's easier and looks good. XBOX Original - Component 480i and 480P XBOX 360 - HDMI if it has it, otherwise Component
Newer consoles - HDMI (Don't even mess about, if it has HDMI use it.)
6. Component is a fantastic format for newer consoles! :) RGB was the best for older retro consoles. I guess that's the summary that a lot of people just don't get.
7. On older consoles that are limited to 240P, RGB is the best. Things changed at the XBOX, Dreamcast and PS2 generation when they introduced HIGHER resolutions such as 480i and 480P which were generally only supported by Component.
For more reading and a way better explanation of each console, go and harass Bob over at http://retrorgb.com He's a top bloke and has very interesting explanations of everything.
I personally recommend RGB SCART cables from these guys in the UK. They make extremely high-quality cables with custom Sync audio options. They also ship worldwide for US customers. Retro Gaming Cables - goo.gl/eb5iMi
