You make a good point, I could probably open it up and wire up an RGB adapter instead of the component ones... just with the RCA jacks for component already on there, might start to get annoying trying to fit it on there and keep the shell looking reasonably decent. Worth looking in to I suppose.
Well if it does already have RGB and you're using the Framemiester, then I would just add an 8-pin mini-DIN socket. That way you can use a mini-DIN cable to go straight from the NES to the Framemiester's RGB input, and avoid those bulky SCART plugs and that horrible dongle.
That's the plan. I bought it secondhand, but it was done by Jason at Game-Tech with one of Tim's boards, so if I was going to try to do RGB I would definitely just do the 8-pin mini-DIN... again though, I gotta take a look and see if there's anywhere I can really cram it in.
Gunning for a licensed NES NTSC-U set, follow the madness and poverty here!
