How to Set Up an Old Nintendo System

The NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) and the Super NES are two classic Nintendo console systems that hook up to your television through a single coaxial cable input. Although this does not provide the high video and audio quality that newer connections do, it is the only available hook up for the older systems.

Things You'll Need

Coaxial cable

Instructions

- 1
  Connect the coaxial cable to the "RF Out" port on the back of the Nintendo system.
- 2
  Hook up the opposite end of the coaxial cable into the "In" port on the rear of the television.
- 3
  Flip the switch on the back of the Nintendo system to "RF Out." Although there is a different connection port found on the older Nintendo systems, it is no longer used by televisions.
- 4
  Power on the TV and the old Nintendo system. Change the TV to channel three or four, depending on the default settings of your television.
