      There were composite and component cables for these consoles.

      My mnemonic device for remembering which of the two that sucked was that: one is called component, and the other is compo-shite :)

          Yeah, it couldn’t separate the video channels.

          YPbPr or RGB cables were essential if you had a compatible monitor. Composite just sucked
