Question about newer model SNES

[Cygnus2112]

I was in my local thrift store today and they had a newer model SNES and two controllers for $15. The only problem is that whoever donated it brought the wrong hookups (they were for a PS2). I have an original Super Nintendo already. Will those hookups work with the newer model?

I may have this wrong since I haven't used a SNES 2 first hand, but it is my understanding that AV cords should be interchangeable between the two models, but the second model doesn't support the RF switch and needs a special adapter to use it. If you scroll down about 3/4 of this page, there's a picture of the adapter: http://vidgame.net/NINTENDO/SNES2.htm

based on that pic it looks like you need the RF adapter

i'm pretty sure that is the same type of universal av adapter type that nintendo used for the N64 and Gamecube. i still have my old Snes1 and i can use that adapter and it works well. so if you find a cheap version of av cables that work with the N64/cube then you should be good to go

I dont think the Gamecube one worked though. I had a mini snes for quite some time. The gamecube is hooked to a (yellow) analog cable and the snes needed the RF type, or it just didnt produce a screen. I am almost positive but its been 5 years or so.

The N64 one works I do believe. Either way thats a steal snatch it up and go from there.

Sweet, I actually have a spare N64 one laying around somewhere. Thanks for the replies!

The GC av will work on the SNES Mini. The power cord for both SNES's are interchangable.

Yeah, I have both and the cables are all the same. Power and AV.
