Alternatively, if a suitable monitor can't be located and you're good with electronics, then consider building a SCART to arcade monitor adapter. If such a TV can't be found for a reasonable price, then look around for an old RGB computer monitor that is compatible with the TV horizontal scan frequency, such as the commodore 1084 monitor. If you are from a somewhere where TVs with SCART inputs are rare then don't despair, some of the upper market TVs offer RGB input in the form of 4 phono sockets, one for each colour and one for composite sync. Notes TVs with SCART inputs are only common in Europe and Australia (mainly because we share a similar TV standard (thus TV designs) with most of Europe and the TV manufactures just leave the connectors in place). This page contains circuit diagrams to aid anybody wanting build/repair/adapt these cables, as well as pinouts and a short description of the RGB video output (75 ohm driver) circuit. Since only a small fraction of people who own a console use/require a SCART cable it slightly reduces the overall cost. coupling capacitors) of the RGB output circuit inside the SCART cable.

The manufacturers have taken full advantage of this and, in what I assume is an effort to save a few cents, often place necessary components (esp. SCART (aka Peritel or Euroconnector) cables for home video game consoles aren't standard, they are different for each console. SCART pinouts and signal info can be found here.
