Add S-Video and Stereo sound to your Atari 2600 easily..

Well, of course it wont make the graphics any better but I prefer to be without all the uneeded fuzz...

Removal of fuzz and a clear, sharp picture are reasons enough..

At least you could use composite video on the NES and even that made a world of difference. The RF input often picked up noise from anything electronic, including the television and you'd often get wavy lines from it.

This device is pretty nice, but I don't feel like messing up my good old 2600. I do have a busted up one though, but at $50 I'd more than likely shy away from this product.

thats awesomeness i have a 2600 not sure if it works if it does i may have to do this to it

I did the S-vid mod myself a while back, very easy and worth the trouble.

So....

ANYTHING can be improved. So I guess it IS like putting a spolier on a Pinto.

My question is this though, does the Stereo mod do anything? Are any of the games coded for it or does it only benefit Homebrew software.

I totally believe that the picture will be sharper, but the color on the before pics are totally not believable.

The colors because of the limits of the RF signal wont come out as the programmers actually intended them too, so yes its believable...

And yes they look about the same on my T.V.

I don't ever remember playing Pitfall 2 when I was younger and Pitfall Harry having a near purple head.
