SuperStation One Gets a New Multi-Output AV Cable for CRT Enthusiasts

RetroRemake opens $15 pre-orders for a shielded multi-output AV cable connecting the FPGA SuperStation One to RGB, component, composite, and S-Video CRT monitors.

RetroRemake has opened pre-orders for a dedicated SuperStation AV cable designed to connect its FPGA-based SuperStation One console to a variety of analogue displays. The accessory, highlighted in fresh specialist coverage on October 9, costs $15 and is expected to ship in November. Its 1.8-metre cable connects to the console through a ten-pin DIN connector and provides multiple video options through a single breakout assembly. Supported connections include RGB or component video, composite video and S-Video, alongside separate stereo audio outputs. Individual coaxial shielding and an additional overall shield are intended to minimise interference, an important consideration when dealing with analogue video signals. RetroRemake also specifies that the composite connection can serve as a synchronisation source for RGB configurations. New SuperStation One customers can currently select the cable or a Bluetooth receiver as a complimentary accessory using the promotional code preorder-bonus, with that offer scheduled to end October 12. The SuperStation One itself is a MiSTer-derived FPGA console designed to reproduce classic gaming hardware behaviour, particularly systems associated with the original PlayStation era. Analogue output is important because many enthusiasts still prefer original CRT televisions and monitors for their authentic presentation of low-resolution games. HDMI is convenient, but the visual characteristics of a properly configured CRT remain difficult to reproduce perfectly on modern flat panels. A single cable covering several common connection standards is therefore a genuinely useful accessory rather than decorative nostalgia. The retro hardware market has become exceptionally sophisticated at recreating old consoles. Now it is also getting better at remembering that people might want to connect them to old televisions.
