jasonbar Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Howdy- I'd like to get my Sega Genesis & Master System A/V modded for S-video output & stereo. As a bonus, it would also be nice to get the "speed up" mod on the Genesis that prevents slow-down during graphics-intensive gameplay. Does anybody here perform such modding services or have such consoles for sale? Thanks, -Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I am not sure if this is something you are interested in but the 3 in 1 (Retron3 I think it is called) has S-video and it plays Genesis/SNES/NES. I don't know much about it though, but you can't beat the price, there like $50 now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxy Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I can offer that service for you or I have one without the overclocking willing to trade for a 130xe, intellivision or colecovision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you charge, & where do you live? I'm in 91107. I also realized that I'd like to get my Intellivision AV modded. Composite or, preferably, S-video. Do you do that too?

Thanks, -Jason I can do composite / audio out on all of them. $40 each w/o shipping. My location is also in west coast: Vancouver, Canada.

Koopa64 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 If oxy doesn't work out, you should definitely head over to Sega-16 Jasonbar. Quite a few modders post there. Just post a thread like this one and you'll find somebody in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean S-video out, rather than composite - on the Genesis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxy Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 No I mean composite. (Yellow RCA) Many new tvs dont even have Svideo anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastcallhall Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I can do all of that, and I'm in the US. PM me for details and pics of previous work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keilbaca Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I can do all of that, and I'm in the US. PM me for details and pics of previous work. I can vouch that he does awesome work, I opened up the one that I got and it is VERY clean inside, very nice wire management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wood_jl Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 No I mean composite. (Yellow RCA) Many new tvs dont even have Svideo anymore True about the new TVs, unfortunately. But why would a Genesis II need modding to output composite? I think I'm getting something wrong here. I've never seen a Genesis that didn't output composite, and the modding I've read about (for Genesis) was always to try to get something BETTER than composite - like S-video or RGB. Also, because the newer TVs don't have S-video certainly does not negate the desire to have it. It's likely that the retro-gamer will have some S-video TVs around. I think S-video out of the Genesis would be of some interest I'm envious of the Super Nintendo that does it, and looks sharper on my old TVs.

Some people just don't want to deal with the original cables, they would like nice easy plugins instead of a standalone proprietary cable.

oxy Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks Keilbaca. Yes, thats is the idea, to use same A/V cable on all consoles so if the cable is damaged you can just get another one without propetary connector. Jason: As per my location, I could pickup mail on WA state for more than one console at the time for an extra fee. No I mean composite.

Ok, thanks for that. It never occurred to me that the standard cable would be objectionable to someone to the point of packing their console and paying 2-way shipping plus paying the modder for their work, just to avoid the standard cable. But I get it now. What I don't see is S-video. It seems that this is NOT an easy thing to do with the Genesis, if I understand correctly? It's too bad, because when I have the Genesis and the SNES both hooked to the same S-video CRT (a sharp one, relatively speaking as CRTs go), I do notice the SNES looking sharper. Is it true that the Genesis (at least the II) can't be modded for S-video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonbar Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Thanks for the all the feedback & info. I ended up getting my SMS 1 & INTV 1 modded by a fellow who lives half an hour away. He did great work. Info here: http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=151303 Also, it turns out that my Gen 2 isn't moddable, so I just bought a modded Gen 1 & Sega CD 1 set. Anybody want to buy a Gen 2 + Sega CD 2, working & clean? =D Thanks, -Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
