    Default TV Selecting help please..newbie

    Hello
    Ok I am slow....and need help. I am debating LCD or CRT for my gaming room. I know LCD is huge and quality is good however the lightgun games do not work. I also was wondering with the systems I plan on playing, NEs, Sega Genesis (mainly those two), also SNES, Turbo, N64, PS1, PS2....I think they only do a max of svideo out?

    With svideo I believe its 480i quality right? dvd?

    If you take say a svideo genesis to CRT would it look same as to LCD given that it only has Svideo out? I am just thinking the old term Garbage in Garbage out?

    Any photos comparing???

    And with a CRT tv how do I know what kind /specs to get? anyone help me out? I would like a large one that will work with Lightguns and that is brand new....

    Also I have seen special boxes such as HDBOXPRO.. they up convert or something for newer tvs??

    I would appreciate it...

    A CRT with component in would be a good idea for the consoles you mentioned.
    The Mega Drive was far inferior to the NES in terms of diffusion rate and sales in the Japanese market, though there were ardent Sega users. But in the US and Europe, we knew Sega could challenge Nintendo. We aimed at dominating those markets, hiring experienced staff for our overseas department in Japan, and revitalising Sega of America and the ailing Virgin group in Europe.

    Then we set about developing killer games.
