Get a better TV then ;) looks great in 480p via the component cable on a decent Panasonic plasma.

Plasma? Try an LED. It looks terrible. Any game of that era does since the aspect ratio was not meant for modern TVs. Everything looks stretched and awful.

It will do on an LCD (not really LED, it's just an LED backlight,) they scale apallingly, particularly cheaper lower end ones. The aspect ratio you can fix yourself though, you just change the TV to 4:3. You can't do anything about how ugly mismatched resolutions are on an LCD TV though.

It'll be interesting to see what OLED will do for this. Panasonic have fixed a lot of the problems the LG ones had and will be releasing those onto the market later this year (though they'll initially be like $6000).

Best way to play retro games at the moment though (and probably always will be) is a nice CRT TV/Monitor. But the higher end Plasma units do a decent job too. It's a shame they stopped making them because market forces said size and price were the priority over quality. :(

4K not being viable on them was the final nail.
