    My older brother would deliberately wait a week or more to hook up my NES so I learned how to do it as a kid. Just one of many reasons we've never gotten along over the years. I think he was an only child used to attention and when I was born, resented me for it every since. Some mental illness might be going on too, he can't hold onto a job, probably because he's not a team player.

    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!

    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.

      @ThrowbackGames_  Před 2 měsíci

      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_  Před 2 lety +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
