>>4793625
As a user of composite video on 16-bit consoles, I can't decide which is overall better on the 64:

S-video looks to make the colors brighter at least.

Not in a composite only thread. In another thread yes, s-video is great. RGB... it's kind of a waste of time unless you like modding consoles and soldering as a hobby.

There are multiple photos of Nintendo dev units hooked up to RGB monitors. Usually PCs during the NES/SNES days.

[Anonymous No.4793672]

>>4792090
>as intended
arguably only on the NES, whose PPU generates a composite signal directly instead of converting the signal for output (and this isn't the case for the PC-10 arcade boards). plus you have a stronger case for the RF switch, since that's what came in the box, and it was the only output option on the famicom and the nes-101.

[Anonymous No.4793678]

>>4793651
im confused how you cant tell? svideo is better...that's why it exists...to be better than composite..

[Anonymous No.4793689]

>>4793672
Genesis graphics were often designed for a lossy signal. I did play with RF because no one bothered to replace it.

>>4793678
The blur can help hide the low resolution, especially on diagonal lines.

Postage stamp pixel artists. Every last texture on 16-bit consoles looks better with the blend.

[Anonymous No.4793719]

Just because the CRT has RGB inputs does not mean it was used. The old monitors all had composite input too.

[Anonymous No.4793963]

>>4792090
Yeah that's why studios went out of their way to make sure their arcade cabinets all used RGB.

[Anonymous No.4794308]

Played Crash 3, as a kid/teenager, on some kind of CRT. Later played it (using a PS1 or PS2? I forget) on a LCD of some-kind, and I think I had multiple ways of connecting, or a video mode setting on the monitor(also used the screen for the computer), or something, and one of them definitely looked better. There was S-Video, RGB-something...
There's some very good crt filters for emulators, found that it made emulated FF5 and FF6 look better. Snes9X had the best I've used, although even some ZSNES filters (dunno if packaged with, or downloaded separately) may have been worth using, I forget. Buying and installing a CRT seems over the top, though, just like buying an old console and games, at least most of the time. Maybe there's circumstances where it makes sense, but unless you have a massive library of old games you want to play, at that point it takes such time and effort to do that it's probably no longer purely for the sake of enjoying playing vidya, and is more a hobby thing, akin to people that collect cars and such. Given that you have to be selective and research it, since using just any old CRT may make it look worse.
Sometimes higher internal resolution looks better, sometimes it looks like garbage because the textures and models were not meant to be seen that close-up. I played Final Fantasy 7 and 9 on EPSXE (old computer) and would toggle it on/off at different times.
"High-res" blur filters and squished aspect ratio are the worst.

Are you? Do you have a photo of the Dev unit's video output going to the RGB inputs on the back of the monitor? Because if you don't then just STFU because you don't know.

Final testing would have been done on a real Famicom system and I highly doubt they were using custom RGB PPUs in those. Wouldn't make any sense.

Decrying RGB by posting screengrabs of horribly scaled emulators. "Composite" examples are those same emulators with a simple gaussian blur filter added but no dot crawl or fringing.
