Thanks, as a GenZ i did never imagine such a thing
I was born in October 96 so gen z and I grew up with a mega drive and PS1 so scart cables were very familiar. The only TV we had for years was a CRT so I was more than familiar with red yellow and white connectors into the back as well.
Those are called composite, just so you know
There were composite and component cables for these consoles.
My mnemonic device for remembering which of the two that sucked was that: one is called component, and the other is compo-shite :)
Composites with the one with only one video cable, component has three. Both having two audio for stereo.
Yeah, it couldn't separate the video channels.
YPbPr or RGB cables were essential if you had a compatible monitor. Composite just sucked
