Review on Tensun Composite Converter Upscaler Nintendo by Chris Pollreisz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Terrible (Tensun Composite and S-Video versions)

Tensun is pretty bad. S-Video was useless, very dark and not worth using. I don't have any other S-Video equipment, so I assume my cables could be to blame, but I doubt it. With the composite cable the picture was decently bright, looked good, jumped back and forth playing N64 Goldeneye games with and without the adapter. and the ocarina of time. Didn't notice any circumcision. 720p gives the best image scaling/ratio. Then I started moving. Terrible haloes. Huge ghost trails with a red crosshair on the Goldeneye file. The ocarina was even worse, remember Majora's Mask and its blurry/ghostly cut scenes scattered throughout the game? The ocarina looked 100% like this. I felt drunk, the image halos were so bad. If you use this with static images the output is fine, but anything involving motion is hopeless. If your TV doesn't have a composite connection, I recommend an audio receiver instead, as this is the cheapest I have for accurate composite to HDMI conversion.
