Who doesn't remember the good ol' days of CRT displays? Well now you can add that nostalgic 'Scanline' effect to any of your HDMI devices!
It's a retro gaming enthusist's dream to experience all manner of games on an original CRT display... however with their size, weight and availability becoming modern day problems, a nifty scanline generator like this can be just the thing to add that much loved scanline effect to any gaming source!
Such fond memories and some of my favourite games. I mean, if you can remember playing video games on CRT TVs or PC monitors chances are you've played some of the greatest games ever made. Am I right? Unfortunately CRTs aren't being made anymore and the ones in circulation are getting old, and expensive (if they still work).
There are certainly ways to play your old games on more modern screens and they look...okay I guess?!? But pixel art was never designed with modern LEDs in mind, it looks okay, but not great if you know what I mean. If you want to create an even more authentic experience then this HDMI scanline generator is the perfect addtion. It should actually be a crime not to use it. It adds scanlines to your screen which makes your old games look and feel exactly like you're playing on your parents old tube TV and doesn't introduce any lag into the system.
It's the perfect next step in your video game nostalgic journey!

Product Review by Nathan,

I urgently needed to get online after moving into a new place. My desktop computer doesn't have wireless and I needed a long cable fast. After visiting Dick Smith Powerhouse and gasping at their prices, I remembered Cable Chick. I quickly checked the price of the 20M CAT5e Computer Network Cable (RJ45) and found it to be less then half the price, even after postage. I ordered it, and less then 20 hours later it arrived. I'll never buy cables from anywhere else again.
