Do you still use a CRT Television? (1 Viewer)

[Ravenfreak]

I still have a small 13 inch CRT that I like to hook up my NES to at times. My toploader NES only has RF out at the moment, I still need to get it modded so I could use composite. Do you still have a CRT lying around and do you still like to use it? I wish this one also had a VCR built in but it doesn't lol. I would love to get a Sony Trinitron since old games look fantastic on those tvs! They're the holy grail of CRTs for sure.

I still have a small CRT in my attic, though I almost never use it these days. While I did use it in college and a bit afterwards for Super Smash Bros. Melee with my brother/friends, these days I have high-quality HDMI adapters for my N64/GCN/Wii. Even though playing on a CRT is probably more effective for these systems, it's just not practical with my house setup, plus the high-quality HDMI adapter (like EON and Retrotink) make the games look quite nice and play pretty good on an HDTV.

One thing to note is that I have no plans to get rid of my CRT, I think it could be useful if I was to redesign and want to have a retro game corner.

I don't have a CRT TV but my brother still has our family CTR TV set, which is still functional. I upgraded my TV to LED many years ago.

No, although it's on the wishlist for some retro gaming.

I did pick up a freebie from Facebook Marketplace a few years back, but unfortunately the tubes must have been dying as it felt like the brightness would intermittently flicker.

I no longer have a CRT television and have not had one in a long time. I can't say that I do much retro gaming now, so needing a CRT television is not necessary at the moment.
