AV jack doesn't work

Ok, I recently bought a PS2. Now, all the cables on my TV are taken up by my N64, Xbox, and Gamecube, except a set of AV jacks on the front of my VCR (they are the type of jacks that these type of cables go into).
However, these jacks don't work. I've tried doing it with the VCR on, with it off, I've changed channels, etc.

What is wrong?

Unplug the N64, plug in the PS2 in its place, plug in the N64 on front

You probably have the TV set to the wrong input.

My suggestion would be to purchase an all-in-one universal RCA connector/adapter. One that has PS2, N64, Xbox, etc. connectors.

I have one. However, the Xbox is too far away for the cable to reach between the two, and the N64 is hooked into the TVs antenna, rather than an AV cable.

Do gamecube and wii use the same shaped connectors? If that's so, I could hook up the PS2 on my other TV with my wii and 360.

Just buy an AV splitter. Your TV should have at least one (probably two) sets of AV jacks, just plug in a splitter and then you'll have enough. They look like this by the way.

Those tend to be more expensive.

How much are those typically? I could use one of those with my set up, so then I wouldn't have to have so many wires in the back where they are hard to reach.

Do you mean this kind of AV splitters?

They usually tend to be around 40 to 100 dollars US.
