| Buying 32x Conversion Cable |
| cobski - Aug 18, 2004 |
. It's the cable that allows the 32X to be played on a Genesis 1. I'm looking to pay $5 US plus shipping, but the price is negotiable. |

| GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD LUCK! Aren't you the one who was eager to trade Virtua Fighter 2, Daytona USA, Astal and another junk for a PSD?  | |||

| I was lucky enough to buy a Genesis-M1/32x combo and the cable came with it. You won't have much luck with this, just keep an eye out on eBay. And that was someone else that wanted to make that ignorant trade. | |||

| Hrmmm, well i have a home made one i made a real long time ago... i used it for several years until i finally bought a legite... it works fine, made out of a mini din, sewing needles, and wire really from a genny a/v cable... so if you want it toss me 3 bucks. it does work. | |||

PDS is Panzer Dragoon Saga, dude. Live a little  <!--QuoteBegin-m al@Aug 19, 2004 @ 02:35 AM No, that was I KNOW that. I was just trying to make a point for those of you who remembered that "unusual" deal: Trying to find an original rare item for such a low price. | ||||

Sure you did. | ||||

| It's also kinda funny that he made a mistake when he said the abbrievation too. "PSD" doesn't stand for Panzer Dragoon Saga... And lordofduct, I may buy that cable off ya, just give me a day or two to think it over . | |||

| No worries. If you do find it though, as long as it works and has a stable connection, I'll buy it off you. | |||

| why not building one? the first posts i ever made were about that. it took me some time but i've connected 2 mega/sega genesis 1 and 1 sega genesis 2 to 32x and a cdx to a 32x and they all work fine. 1. get pinouts for mega/sega genesis 1 and 32 x at gamesx.com 2. buy solid core wire (insulated would be better) thin enough to plug in the 32x mini din connection (you need to peel the insulation just to plug the wire in the conecction 6 milimeters would be fine, both sides) 3. cut 7 wires 10 to 11 centimeters long, plug them one on one using the pinouts as a guide to keep them in place use a silicone gun. (genesis 2 to 32x connection). to plug on the genesis 1 you will need a male din connector and solder the tip of the solid core wire or just plug the wine inside the hole of the din female and solder the tip directly to the board of the console. 4. if you connect port (+5 v) mega/sega genesis 1/2 to 32x is possible to use only the power adaptor for the mega/sega genesis 1/2 to power both the console and the ad on. some people say it will fry your power source but i use to play 5 hour sessions 4 days a week and my setting works fine. this will be more fun and easier than buying a connector.  | |||

| still no luck.... thursday im going through a box that may have it... not positive though, i sure would love to help someone out though with this, I love the 32x.... dont know why, maybe cause it had so much potential, it was just wasted | |||

cobski | Aug 24, 2004 | |
| Good luck on Thursday. Yeah, the 32x had a lot of potential that was wasted. I still can't wait to get my hands on Knuckles Chaotix, though :lol: . | |||

| they've have them at www.sega-parts.com... again too. I believe they are endorsed by SEGA themselves. Im not positive, but when i called SEGA a few years ago, they told me to go there for any old parts... that they dont distribute old parts themselves and have there parts distributed by that website. | |||
