  1. I have decided to attempt the G7400 RGB Mod as described here.

     

    I have purchased all the required components on the parts list. Everything seems pretty straight forward except for one thing.

     

    A BC547B transistor is to go into 684 location on the PCB. See figure below. My question is how to orient the transistor (i.e. where to put the emitter-base-collector)? Can anyone help? This is the only thing I am hung up on at the moment.

  2. Correct. This morning I got the ball rolling on a brand new batch of Knightmare PCBs (with the corrected software) and I'll be assembling them into cartridges and shipping them as replacements. When I get the defective carts back, I will recycle them into other games later this year.

     

    I wonder if this is one of the defective Knightmare carts that did not get shipped back to team Pixelboy...

    If so, this is a pretty messed up move.

  3. VPB--- is VideoPacBelgium on the videopac.nl forum... I'm Marc.

    This is the pics about the G7400/Jopac is working from 110v to 240v.

    René said "It only mentions 50Hz, but I suppose 60Hz won't be a problem?

    It should then be possible to connect a G7400 console directly to 110V too."

    Great news, that is one less thing to worry about. Thanks!

  4. I hope someone out there can help me with a question about general electronics and, in particular, the Videopac G7400 power supply.

     

    I live in the US and I recently imported a G7400 Videopac from Europe. I originally was going to get a voltage converter, but I was reading the import guide at this website and on step 3 there is mention of swapping the original power supply with a regulated 12V/5V US power supply. I am perfectly comfortable with the actual replacement, but I don't have the technical knowledge about electronics to ensure that I won't do anything really stupid and install an incompatible PSU.

     

    So my question is: Can someone give me some info or a link to a regulated 12V/5V US power supply that would be safe to use?

     

    Thanks!

  5. Golden Axe is exactly what I was thinking, and how perfect would a port of that be? Side scrolling beat-em-up, easily replicated and improved graphics, three button control scheme...seems like it was a game begging to be ported to the Jag!

     

    Couldn't agree more, Golden Axe was one of my all time favorites.
