mimo Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Check ebay france, you can get a nice RGB scart one from there. They suffer from dirty power switches,which can cause all sorts of wierdness, an easy fix though! The controllers suck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The voltage is fine. The coleco PSU outputs 2 voltages via separate pins think it is 12volt and 5 volt, so you would need 2 power supplys to replace the standard one, or do lots of messind around to drop voltages etc etc. Keep the standard PSU, clean the power switch,buy and Atarimax 128-in-1 flash cart, and congratulations on your purchase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought their standard was a bit different from ours (PAL UK - Spain - Germany and so on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
