Hey Dudes!

Does anyone know if a top loader NES would work properly on a euopean pal TV?!
Wanted one for a while now, but have heard that there are issues with it working in europe, true?

Cheers!

I've sold to and modded a LOT of ntsc top loaders for several different Euro countries.
It will work if its modded for composite video out, but RF will not function correctly on your tv.
I have a couple for sale if you're interested, send me a message...

I can highly recommend Jason's work, works like a dream with standard composite found in my obviously locally purchased tv! Not just that but the picture quality is highly improved over typical toploader output.

It's been a long time since I realized, I'm not building a great collection, but a great library.

Yeah, that's the problem with the toploader only outputing through rf... I bought mine in the states and only realized it wouldn't work when I got home.

Ended up getting an AV Famicom and I'm really happy with it though!
