i have bart's nighmare for genesis but noticed there's a slicght crack in the case of the cart.i have cleaned the contacts to make sure it's clean but the game will never work at all so  am i too assume the crack in the cart means the game is a goner?Also what crt models would be the most reliable for retro games.

    I have an Apex brand CRT and it's been good to me for the last 10 years , has S-Video which gives a really clear picture if you have the output cables for it.

    I have a 27" GE TV that I bought in 1994 when I got my first job(age 14). I couldn't even atempt to guess the number of hours i've logged on this thing. It's like Al Bundy's Dodge; it will never die. All the movies's and TV shows i've watched on it. All the times i've fallen asleep with it on. I used to use it as my alarm clock and one time I ended up in the hospital for a week. I got home and realized it had been on since the day after I went in. Up until about 5 years ago, it was my only TV. Damn fine TV, unfortunately, I don't think GE makes TV's anymore.

    The hands down best CRT for gaming is the Sony Wega. You can lock this up now.

    Open the cart, and just insert the PCB into the genesis. A crack in a game cart will not prevent it from working. Opening up the cart, the reason that it doesn't work might even show itself.

    I have heard great things about the Sony trinitron. Due to space limitations I have to use my main TV (LG LCD) for gaming as well. But once I have the room I have a nice Zenith from the early 90's I intend to use.



    Interesting note, Bart's Nightmare (SNES) is the only cart I couldn't get to work no matter what I did with it.

    I have a 24 inch Sony WEGA KV-24FS100, it's pretty nice but heavy as all heck. Has front and back AV inputs, 1 SVIDEO and a set of component as well. Plays all my older consoles fine and lightguns work.

    24" Toshiba TV here. no problems for the last 9 years. 1 component, 2 AV, 1 svideo and rf cable as usual. very nice, love it. lets say it had its share of video gaming heh
