Help: Need to find a Console System Selector
Wasn't sure where exactly to post this, almost posted it in the Other Requests thread. Anyways, I've had this nice Pelican System Selector Pro that takes up to 8 component/composite/S-Video inputs and it has lasted me a good while. Now I have more than 8 systems and I'm looking for another one to add on. I don't need HDMI, I just need component, composite, S-video, and optical for about 5-8 more systems. If possible, I would like to have a remote control and labelling for systems like the Wii, possibly Dreamcast (which my old one lacked a label for it...no idea why since it had PS1, N64, PS2, and Xbox), XBox360, and PS3 (don't own one yet). Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Shitload of readin', but it's probably your best bet to go through that. I've got the same system selector you've got, and I agree, I wouldn't mind upgrading to one that's got a remote and a digital display for identification. The problem is that those for the most part never have enough inputs. Cheaper shit doesn't handle HD all that well due to a number of problems with interference, low quality components, and other technical stuff that I won't go into, but for SD they aren't bad. If you find something acceptable, let me know. 'eh? There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Great thread. I've been thinking about getting a selector as my next gaming purchase. It would be nice to keep the NES/SNES/Dreamcast set up just for kicks and get the PS2 running through S-video and the Wii running through component...
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Alright, now I'm starting to get worried since there doesn't seem to be a really good solution to any of the selectors that I've seen so far. I was dead set on getting the Joytech one from Walmart.com but they sold out. Just when I was about to get one off of ebay, I read this:
http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...73#post9377173 480p screw ups? Not good considering that's what I've got my Wii running on and that's what I plan to get my Dreamcast games' quality up to this summer. I'm almost about to say to hell with the naming system and just go for the System Selector Pro 2.0. Only problem is on the link Colonel gave me above, I saw that it was having problems with the 360. So, now I'm back to square one and I'm almost ready to go with Pelican on this one, but if anyone has had any new discoveries for system selectors in the past few weeks, let me know. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
