WTB: A/V modded Genesis or SMS (or mod service)

[jasonbar]

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

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

I can offer that service for you or I have one without the overclocking willing to trade for a 130xe, intellivision or colecovision

Thanks--you can do S-video & stereo out on both an SMS & Genesis II?

 

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?

I can do composite / audio out on all of them.

$40 each w/o shipping.

My location is also in west coast: Vancouver, Canada.

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.

Do you mean S-video out, rather than composite - on the Genesis?

No I mean composite. (Yellow RCA) Many new tvs dont even have Svideo anymore

[Lastcallhall]

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.

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.

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.

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?

[jasonbar]

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,
