Many gamers have two or three different consoles. Fans of early game consoles often have a selection of retro consoles, as well as several new models. Without a proper setup, users must disconnect one console and connect a different one in its place. This is a time consuming process, requires users to regularly move their screen, and leaves an untidy pile of wires behind. It also damages the pins on the console cables and the port in the back of the screen. This guide provides a guide to the process of setting up all of a gamer's consoles on a single television or screen to eliminate the need to disconnect and reconnect different consoles.
