Video/Audio Inputs

Hi all... I am looking for something like a PCMCIA card or something that attaches through USB that will allow me to hook up three video/audio RCA cables. To be more specific, I'd like to be able to play my good old Nintendo 64 through my laptop. The specifications for my laptop can be found in my signature.

If the above is possible... is there any software I need to get so I can play my Nintendo through it, or should I just be able to plug the wires in and it'll play through my desktop? I'm running Windows XP Professional.

Thanks!

Wow that's more expensive than I thought it would be. I don't really care about recording or watching Television through it... is there something that I can just hook up my Nintendo 64 to?
