Thinking about buying it next week, just wanted to know if anyone used it before and would it work with my sega saturn which only uses RF?

This could really help out alot with all of my game systems. 8-)

Says it works with RF, however, you could probably find one that smaller at Wal Mart for half the price.

I've been very happy with my GS one, and Wal-Mart won't actually be that much cheaper, especially if you care about hook-ups other than composite. Nice and unadvertised thing about the GS one is that it also comes with a cable, which also does component.

For the money, it's actually a great deal.


(can't help you on the RF thing, though, as mine is buried far enough away that I can't get to the back. If you're concerned about that, though, I'd say just drop the <$5 to get some composite cables for the Saturn.)

You could also hit up ebay and snag some Saturn S-video cables. I got mine years ago and love them. Like $8 shipped.

I don't have this selector, but my friend does, and it degrades the signal a bit. Nothing too noticeable on lesser TVs. Just some brightness loss and darker colors, but it was pretty slight. I only noticed after doing head to head comparisons, and even then, it wasn't a big deal, unless you are rocking something nice like a Trinitron.

My version is the one with composite, s-video and component in/outs. It works fine with all three types of connections.
