I'm looking to find some adapters like the one shown below on mouser, digikey, or somewhere cheap. Thanks

I think I might have one of those. Not sure, though.

Re: Where to find these adapters?
I want to buy a lot of them so I can sell them with vintage game systems (like atari's). That way I don't have to worry about dealing with defective switch boxes. I'll check fry's website later today.

I found some! http://cgi.ebay.com/TV-Adapter-Atari-Di ... 240%3A1318
edit: I was wondering, couldn't you use one of the Nintendo RF adapters? I have quite a few of those and would be willing to sell some.

Re: Where to find these adapters?
Great, Thanks! I suppose that's a good enough price. I have no idea if NES adapters would work, but the Atari's output cord is a male phono (rca) plug; therefore it can't be directly plugged into the nes rf adapter.

No it wont work. The NES' signal is much more powerful then the Atari. How the auto switches work is that it has to receive a high enough voltage to trip it. Genesis' use a dedicated +5V line to do it.

Re: Where to find these adapters?
I found some of the adapters at a somewhat cheaper price.
Cable Wholesale
I got 20 of them for a grand total of $27.09 vs the total if I got them off ebay: $36
