gcompsw as shown at castlemaniagames.com

This is an 8-port dual-output YPbPr component switch made specifically for retro-gaming that supports automatic switching. Both output ports can be connected at the same time, and it features automatic switching between consoles. It also supports switching composite using the green ports.

You can purchase one on CastleMania's store.

Exclamation-triangle-fill.svgDo not connect a supergun to the switch, as it will permanently damage it and will void your warranty.

Other Info

The gcompsw will automatically detect which console is powered on and switch to it. It's best to not power on more then one console at a time, but doing so will not damage the switch. Also, you can chain multiple gcompsw's together for 15 total inputs.


To daisy chain 2 gcomsw's together the 2nd gcompsw needs to have the male comp2comp cord connected to one of the the output ports. The other half of the male comp2comp then needs to be connected to the last port of your 1st gcompsw.
