New life to an old system(s)
While doing some late Spring cleaning, I became curious if my old Intellivision Super Pro System actually worked. It would power on, but I no longer had any cable for it and had only six game cartridges (that I could find so far) in storage with it. Decided to see how much a cable would cost to find out if it was running and perhaps show it my boys and even sell it if it were worth it.Plugged this cable into the RF for the Intellivsion and used the included adapter (there were two) to plug the other end to the Coax connection on the TV. Set the channel to 3 or 4 on the Intellivision and bring that channel up on the TV. At first I was a bit worried it did not work as I was getting blank black screens. But one game had a bit of a result - a distorted screen somewhat but still came up. I did some more cleaning of the system and cartridges and started getting slightly better results. I wasn't sure if it was the cable or the system (system had been in storage a LONG time).I was about to give up on having it 100%, but had left it on while I was busy doing some other work and when I came back to it, the screen was perfect! So it perhaps needed to warm up a bit, not sure. But I've since been able to verify every game works, the controllers work and the display is actually good.I plugged this into a LG HD 24" TV I bought a few years back on sale. I took some pictures with my phone so I'll try to get those uploaded to show it all worked out. Overall I am happy it worked, just wish I had some of my other games to try out!Update: I also tried this out on my old (beat to heck) NES and it also works with it. I had been using regular RCA cables for the video and mono audio (side of the NES), but gave this a try and it also worked plugged into the RF output/switch (back of the NES) of the NES. I added a photo of Wizardry (screen is scrolling in my picture, so it's not a video issue)

Great for ColecoVision 2400 // Coleco Vision 2400
If you're like me and you want a cable to get your old ColecoVision 2400 running, but none of the cables on amazon specifically have anyone saying they will work with a ColecoVision 2400, I can at least let you know that this one works great with mine!

Making the 7800 look good on original CRTs.
2019: I’ve been on a childhood nostalgia fueled Atari 7800 gaming binge. I’ve acquired a Sony Trinitron CRT television manufactured in 1997, probably one of the best devices I can find to connect my Atari in this day and age. I’ve been picking up modern "home brew" Atari games such as a pokey chip enabled Pac-Man Collection and the amazing Rikki & Vikki.Yet, using my original “TV/Computer” switch-box cable from the 80s, I would experience RF artifact issues in the form of moving distortions and blacks that weren’t true black in areas.And so, that is why I bought this RF/RCA cable. And wow! It was such a great improvement to the visual quality. The artifacts are gone, black is now true black, and it really makes the rest of the game colors pop! I had been toying with a RCA video mod conversion on my 7800, but I have no desire to do that now because I am extremely happy with the visual quality this cable provides.It’s a great price, excellent visual results, you can’t go wrong if you’re looking to continue your retro gaming experience on original hardware.

Works but connection is loose
Worked for our game system, however the connection doesn't fit tightly and can come out if the machine is jostled or even just moved

Atari 7800 games on modern tv
Easy hookup. Allows Atari 7800 games to look great on modern tv. Would definitely recommend to anyone with an Atari 7800.

Works great for Magnavox odyssey 2
I bought this product to replace my decaying rf cable on my odyssey 2. A simple cable swap and it works great. Definitely would recommend buying this cable for replacements on older ataris and the odyssey 2.

NOT compatible with Atari 2600!
One input end of the coaxial video cable is too long. This is NOT compatible with the Atari 2600 as stated. I'm stuck with it as the return window is only a month. NOT a happy customer.
