Manufacturer description
In working condition no issues that I can see. Just did some general testing with a Wii. Played several games colors all look good sound works well. Tested both the front RCAS and the back RCAS. Did not test the high def green blue red plug ins, but everything looks to be in working order. No screen discoloring or overheating, played for a few hours. This does not come with a controller. This was pretty dirty on the sides and front. We did clean quite a bit off. The front holes still have a little bit of residual dirt.
SpecPicks Verdict
SpecPicks scored Sony Trinitron KV-13FS100 13" Retro Gaming CRT Flat Screen TV using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the displays & upscalers category. Sony's displays & upscalers lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.
