I want it older. So, NES it is for me.

Thanks for your input, though.

Why did this thread refuse to work right?

Is there any way to use my computer monitor as a screen for my NES? It's an Acer.

Why the need?

Because, my downstairs TV only has one input (and it's on the back of the TV), and my upstairs TV belongs to my parents.

I shall look up what the heck those mean. I'll come back with an answer.

Are you talking about the computer or the NES.

The computer monitor.

NO. DO NOT GET A RETRON 3 or ANYTHING like that! Get the original systems, those systems are nearly always off in terms of accuracy.

If he wants something that will survive and isn't obsolete or prone to fires, he can.

SHUT UP ABOUT THE ^&&^ING FIRES, THEY CANNOT HAPPEN.

Someone says the word "fire" and you jump on them like a flea on a dog? That's dumb.

I thought so. Checking it out.

It only has VGA and DVI inputs. But I can get a cord for it.

I need a AV/Coax to VGA converter. Could you give me a link to a cheap one on Amazon?

Umm...can't you? 'Jes sayin'...

I don't want to go through 10 pages. So I'm forcing you to. 

I think instead of buying the cord, I'll keep it in my room, and plug it in whenever I need it.

But my dad will talk with me about it tonight. He says ultimately it's my money and my decision, but he will tell me the risks and other options.

If I go on some errands with my dad, he'll take me to a retro gaming store. He's going to limit my time on the NES, though, since I'm behind on my book report.
