Need some help. I got an insane deal on the Super Famicon, NES and N64.

Ok I just got an absolutely incredible deal on 3 consoles, an unused Super Famicon (missing one controller), an extremely well done refurbished NES, and an incredibly well kept watermelon N64. All for $850 and I am flabbergasted. I have some questions that I need help with since I do not have any experience with actual, physical Super famicons (nor SNES) and NES that I need some help with. Keeping in mind that while still an incredible deal, I am 100% still broke cause of this. Also, I am never touching the N64 due to how bad that console looks today, while the NES and the SNES can still look great on a modern tv. I hope mods can allow the NES talk since parts mentioning it are directly related to the Super Famicon.

 

For one, what is the best cheap option to connect the S Famicon and the nes to a modern qd oled TV (if possible, with an acceptable CRT filter)? I saw the retrotink, and I just can not afford hundreds of dollars on that.

 

Second, is the x5 everdrive for the super famicon worth the price?  I see that nowadays, they aren’t nearly as terribly priced like 10 years ago. Though I am sadden to see that mega man x2 and x3, yoshi island, and Kirby's Dream Land 3 do not work on it (the rest either have remakes or run horribly).

 

Third, do you guys have any recommendations for clear cases that I can encase these in that still allow me to connect them to power and to the tv?

 

Lastly, what is the safest way to power the super famicon in the usa so that it can work for as long as possible? Again, on a budget.
