Interesting.

SO what resolution would the A500 run when using an RF unit on a tv? What about color display?

Also what's the largest size monitor I could get for the A500 without spending a fortune?


You get 320x240 or 320x256 in the vast majority of games. If you've got a monitor waiting and you have or will have cash for an A3000, I'd say go that route because you have a more modern machine with more potential, but the games will still run at 320x2xx even though you have a monitor capable of displaying higher resolutions.

Also, this sounds weird, but sometimes playing old games on a high-definition monitor actually makes the games look worse than on a standard TV (In My Opinion (TM)). The video is sharper on the monitor, so the "blockiness" of the image shows up more.
