Hey guys, just wondering if this is possible? I think the RF switch on the SNES is broken, and was wondering if an N64 RCA cable could be used instead? Any help would be great, thanks :)

What might work for you is a set of rca cables some sort of reverse rf modulator. I worked at radio shack when I was 19 back in 00-01, used to sell them to alot of people that didnt have RCA jacks on their TV's but needed to hook up a PS2/Xbox.

I would head to a place like radio shack, they would probably be able to help you out with what you need As i believe the N64 has a proprietary connector, to the back of the system and I dont remember if there were multiple ways an snes could be hooked up other than the rf switch.
EDIT: Score!

This is most likely what you will need

an RF demodulator.

Im really not seeing them for very cheap online, looks like you can probably pick up a whole new snes system on ebay for cheaper.
