Question
Hi,just got old n64 (pal/uk),anywho, just put gamecube scart lead in back but all i get is music and almost black picture.

How can i play said system with scart or can you not, thanks in advance.

Answer
Gday,

If the Scart (RGB) cable works with your Gamecube and Not your N64 then your N64 has a problem.  As the Scart Cable is universal for the SNES, N64 and Gamecube.  If it works on one and not the other then the unit is faulty in some way.

Bottom line is it should work.

Hope this helps.
