Ever brought a DVD player or game console to a hotel?

Don't they usually have their television sets rigged up without any composite inputs? Can you watch with an RF swtich or do they have coaxial wired directly into the set?

I remember people at E3 with systems in their rooms, but I never bothered to ask how they got the whole thing set up.
 
Sometimes they let you use the imputs, sometimes theyre blocked.

Maybe youd prefer to pay $7 to enjoy the N64 title of your choice for an hour?
 
My hotels in Japan had the composite hookups available. The TVs all had "GAME" input buttons on the front...

Hell, our hotel on Miyajima island had an HDTV in our room, with component and an HDMI slot open to us...
 
I've brought my consoles to hotels a few times -- the biggest problem I ever ran into was when I had to use an RF switch and the cable was screwed on super SUPER tight to the TV. Couldn't get it off.

Never ran into any blocked composite inputs if they were available.

To be safe, bring a portable with you just in case :P
 
Haha I do it all the time, screw paying for movies bring a TV box set and your away!

3 DVDs, 1 Xbox but now they have some weird LCD screens with some interactive shit on my most visiting hotel, so I dont go there anymore
 
I've brought my slimline PS2 to a hotel once, and the TV only had RF jacks.
So I went to EB and found a used RF jack adaptor for PSOne, and used that one.

Coming back from work and spending the rest of the night with Final Fantasy XII...that was bliss. The office and hotel was in the middle of nowhere...so boring...nothing else to do but stay in the hotel and play games. Or I could've hired a hooker, yeah.
 
I've brought a PS2 and connected it to a hotel TV. My ex and I couldn't really stay at our usual place that particular night and there was still some FF8 that needed a'playing.
