I was confused for a minute. Pretty sure some called the old 2600 a VCS. I could not figure out how you connected an old school console to a modern TV...and had it look good.

I have my old 2600 and the crt TV I used to play on. Both work great the last time I used them.

I've done it. It's perfect playable. And all you need is a cheap RCA to coaxial adapter.

The better solution is to buy an up-scaler though. They range from reasonably priced to outrageously so.
