Modern Hooks Can I Hook Up An Atari 2600 To A Modern Television?

Can I hook up an Atari 2600 to a modern television? - modern hooks

I would save up for a Atari 2600 on. So I wanted to know if I could get in touch to a modern TV or do I buy an old TV.

  1. I read this right? want to save for an Atari 2600? I'll give you mine if you like.

    FYI: the 21 Century is here! Take cover!

  2. You can connect to an HDTV flat screen like any other older, as it has coaxial or RCA inputs. My Atari 800XL was RCA, which I think the 2600 also. So yes, it must be good.

    The only problem is the large screen tends to stretch the image, and this is of course native wide and there was no such thing when it was Atari. But most can be shown in standard screen, which means that you are black lines on both sides of the picture.
