Device for hooking up multiple devices to TV

Postby Baseball Tonight » Wed May 16, 2007 4:38 pm

Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you know of a device that you can use to hook up multiple devices like gaming consoles, dvd players, etc... to a single TV.

I remember reading about something like this several years ago, but didn't pay much attention because it didn't really apply to me at the time.

I was over a friend's house last weekend and played some Gamecube games (Paper Mario, Star Fox Assault, Pikmin, etc...) and they were pretty fun (don't know if I can get a similar experience on the PS2). This reminded me how fun Gamecube games could be. I have a Gamecube, but haven't played it as much as my PS2.

Anyway, my TV allows only two devices to be hooked up at one time (at least I think it's only two), and right now I have my DVD player and PS2 hooked up to it. I wanna hook up my Gamecube and Dreamcast to my TV and the only way (that I can think of) that I can do that is to unhook my PS2 and DVD player.

So you want a multi-scart adapter?

Does that allow me to hook up multiple devices to a TV?

If yes, then yeah, that's what I want.

Or you can use a good receiver. Especially if you have surround sound.

If you're just using a basic standard TV and the built in speakers a switch works fine. I've actually seen one that has 10 connections. Problem with those is the quality get's knocked down a bit. But on a STV you won't notice. If you're using an HDTV or Surround Sound or just some nice speakers, you'll want to find yourself a halfway decent receiver to connect everything to.
