   That'll be coaxial cable.   
      
   Still just sitting here. We tried a few games in it at the time but none   
   would load and hold steady. Kind of makes me sad.   
      
   I think original hardware is fairly boss personally, but it may be time   
   to concede defeat. I have no RCA hookups (R/W/Y cables) for the Genesis   
   and I don't want to spend a fortune just to cling to it.   
      
   I do love it, but I fear it may be the same if I hook up my 2600. Why   
   struggle when I could load the games up via a Retrode and play them with   
   a Wii, off the cartridge even? And I know robotics, so getting a   
   nine-pin to read like a Classic Controller via an Arduino is not   
   impossible for me.   
      
   *sighs heavily*   
      
   I'm hoping there's hope for it. But I've already - to some extent -   
   conceded it may be time to let go of this sense of my childhood.
