I have recently gotten a hold of some classics again and wanted to look into getting a bit of a better image quality (currently i only have a simple hdmi adapter for them).
Looking into upscalers they seem, very very pricey?
Is that the norm around these parts?
I am not looking for ultra 4k hd fancy stuff, just getting thigns to be a bit sharper and more pleasent to look at.

But stuff like retrotink 5x pro are just as much and more some of these consoles.

Is retrotink the next option for price?
It would only be for for a ps2 and a wii

    For PS2 you could get a RAD2X cable. The RAD2X cables are based on RetroTINK. It’s not cheap, but it’s probably the best option for you since you only have a couple consoles. Do note that this also requires a mini-HDMI cable and a micro-USB cable to function.

    For Wii you could get a dedicated HDMI adapter like this one. This specific adapter is the one recommended by RetroRGB. If your television is old enough that it has component input, then that’s also a good option.

    Edit: I forgot to mention that both of the Wii options I mentioned don’t upscale. It’s just getting the best picture out of the Wii’s native capabilities.
