The NES uses RF, the SNES uses RF, hell even the Turbo uses RF. Is RF really that bad?

It works, I suppose, but AV is much clearer when using all of these. once you try it, you'll never want to go back.

in technical terms, it's considered as the baddest you just can get.

Well I do admit, my RF cables must be showing their age, because I see a little bit of fuzziness on the screen alot.... Hmmm....

even if you use cables made of pure silver with a huge diameter and with goldplated joints, it still would remain the baddest signal you just can get.
