    Just got an original NES and was confused. I remember a plug in the back by the power cable and a box you screwed a cable onto that screwed into the back of the TV. Can't believe I forgot about the side plug-ins. Thanks! BTW, Ninja Gaiden is one of the games I bought with my NES. and now I'll be playing soon.
    Edit: I see you showed the version I remember. The nostalgia!

    I realized I had an RF port on the side of my TV, so that made me excited because I could possibly get an NES and play it on my modern TV.

    ty for making this video, months back my brother got the NES and SNES he had as a kid out of the attic and i was wondering how to set it up (i was way too young to have grown up with it myself, since i was born in 2007)

    Just to note some TVs are not capable of detecting mono audio whether the one audio cable is plugged into the left or right Channel. On some TVs you may need a y splitter to get sound out of both speakers. In my experience TVs that have that capability typically had L/mono written on the white input.

      A solid yellow screen could mean either the game needs to be cleaned or the cartridge slot. Clean the game with some IPA (higher percentage the faster it drys) and the cartridge slot with compressed air. Hope this helps!

    • @ThrowbackGames_
      @ThrowbackGames_  3 года назад +1

      Is the Nintendo itself humming or is it the audio from the tv? If it’s the Nintendo, remove the AC adapter and get a new one. Yep f it’s the audio, it should only have a slight static noice, humming is an issue within your AB cables; get a new pair
