Old Nintendo and hdmi video

[/h][FONT=&quot]My friend has an old Nintendo game console and will be buying a modern TV panel soon. He asked me how he could connect the AV signal from Nintendo to the TV? I’ve heard about hdmi converters. Is this really what he needs? Thanks. [/FONT]

What Nintendo system?

Nintendo PONG, forgett about it no chance that will ever work
The NES works via Composite
The famicom has to be modded to work
The SNES works via a AV cable
The N64 is arsey and ends up looking arse on modern TVs
GameCube works fine

But be aware lightguns will not work on a flat screen

Cube. He wants to try this hdmi converter LTS LTAH102C

Is this right decision?

The GameCube runs fine with its own cable,
Failing that, get a Wii (plays Gamecube games) and a HDMI adaptor
