Nintendo RF Switch Adapter

Donut417 · July 17, 2017

I got a top loading NES, Ive had for a while, but the video cable was broken when I got it. I ended up throwing the cable away. Any way I see that Amazon has some for a few dollars. Im not sure if the system works, as it has no lights. My issue is I use Antenna to get TV. This RF switch was made in the 80s and Im not sure how its going to affect my Antenna signal. Should I try an A/B Switch on the Coax? Will that cause a loss of signal? Only reason I ask, is on some of my channels I only get maybe 60-70% signal. So I dont want to loose those channels.

Or is there a way to convert the system to RCA? I have not seen anything on Google about this.

If I got an USB TV turner, that would allow this to be played on my computer screens right?

There are AV mods for the top loading NES

The RF adapter shouldn't mess with your antenna signal, as it just would be acting as a pass through for the TV signal (the NES will hijack the TV if the system is turned onto the corresponding channel, though).
