RetroScaler 1.8 m RGB SCART cable — image 1
Full description

RGB SCART cable: the best analogue picture from your console

The composite cable supplied with most consoles mixes all the colours into a single signal: the picture bleeds and flickers. RGB SCART carries red, green and blue separately, for a sharp picture on a CRT TV or on the SCART input of an HDMI scaler. This 1.8 m RetroScaler cable comes in 11 versions, one per console connector.

What it does

  • RGB signal: separate colours, a sharper picture with no bleeding compared with composite.
  • 11 versions: Mega Drive 1 (PAL or NTSC), Mega Drive 2, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1 and PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii PAL, multi-out connector (Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Super Famicom, GameCube) and SCART male to male.
  • 1.8 m length: from the console to the TV or the converter box.
  • Scaler compatible: plugs into the SCART input of an HDMI converter for modern screens.

What it doesn't do

  • It does not add RGB to a console that doesn't output it as standard: it carries the signal, it does not create it.
  • Most Nintendo 64 consoles do not output RGB without an internal modification: on these consoles, the cable will not give an RGB picture.
  • It does not convert to HDMI: for a screen without a SCART socket, you need a scaler.
  • Each version only works with the console indicated: check your console's connector before choosing.

Compatibility

One version per connector: Mega Drive 1 PAL, Mega Drive 1 NTSC, Mega Drive 2, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1 and PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii PAL, multi-out connector (Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Super Famicom, GameCube) and SCART male to male to connect two SCART devices. The Mega Drive 1 comes in two versions depending on the console's region.

Skill level

None: one end on the console, the other on the TV or scaler. Remember to select the RGB SCART input in the TV settings. Beginner level.

The motion: replacing the original composite cable

Connected over composite, a Mega Drive or a Saturn shows bleeding colours and flickering edges. RGB SCART carries each colour separately: it is the best analogue picture the console can output, on a CRT TV as well as on a scaler.

The hardware: one cable per connector

RetroScaler offers this 1.8 m cable in 11 versions, one per console connector: Mega Drive 1 in PAL or NTSC, Mega Drive 2, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1 and PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii PAL, multi-out connector and SCART male to male. Each version only works with its own console.

Our support: the right cable, then the right screen

On a recent screen without a SCART socket, the cable plugs into the input of a scaler that converts to HDMI. If you are unsure which version matches your console or your region, our customer service replies within one business day.

Frequently Asked Questions

🎨 What is the difference between RGB and composite?

Composite mixes all the colours into a single signal, which gives a blurry, bleeding picture. RGB carries red, green and blue separately: the picture is noticeably sharper.

🎮 Which version should I choose?

The one that matches your console's connector. For a Mega Drive 1, choose PAL or NTSC depending on the console's region. The multi-out version is for the Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Super Famicom and GameCube.

⚠️ Will my Nintendo 64 get RGB?

Rarely: most Nintendo 64 consoles do not output RGB without an internal modification. The cable carries the signal, it does not create it.

🖥️ Can I use it on a modern screen?

Yes, through a scaler that converts RGB SCART to HDMI. On a TV with a SCART socket, it plugs in directly.

🔁 What is the SCART male to male version for?

For connecting two devices fitted with a female SCART socket, for example a SCART switch and a TV.

📏 How long is the cable?

1.8 m.

🚚 What are the delivery times?

Delivered in 10 to 18 days, shipped within 3 to 5 days.

🛡️ What guarantee applies?

2-year legal guarantee of conformity. Returns within 14 days. Customer service, reply within 1 business day.

Why buy here rather than on a marketplace

It is a fair question. Here is the answer, straight.

We verify, they list

Every listing is checked before publication: real compatibility, material, dimensions, box contents. Many models never make it into the catalogue.

Customer service that speaks French

A question about compatibility, a fit problem, a return: you write, a human replies within 1 business day. In French.

2-year legal warranty, 14-day returns

The 2-year legal warranty of conformity is handled by us — not by a form on the other side of the world. And 14 days to change your mind, with no need to justify yourself.

The price is comparable, the rest is not

We do not claim to be the cheapest. We claim that you will know exactly what you are buying before you pay.
