IceCold Posted July 31, 2002 Author Share Posted July 31, 2002 this is what the FAQ says Q: How about using a Sega CD I (older) unit with the newer model Genesis? A: "Officially", no. However, a special cable CAN be made to attach it as such. It will not be as sturdy, and it's unsure how reliable this would be. The hookups don't match for sound and you'll have to use the RF box unless you patch everything. Also, you cannot use the connector plate and the FAQ is on http://www.classicgaming.com/museum/faqs/s...segacdfaq.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarinvader Posted July 31, 2002 Share Posted July 31, 2002 I don't think there'd be a problem electronicaly, just physicaly. The Sega CD 1 fits under the Genesis 1 and the Sega CD 2 fits underneath and to the side of the Genesis 2. They're basicaly the same machine, but molded to fit the specific console. Both the Genesis 1+2 (did you guys get a 3rd machine BTW?) have those funny edge connectors underneath them which basicaly hooks up the two machines, I guess they're the same pins on each model...

This was probably just an error on your part, a sort of "typo," but the Segacd2 really sits next to the genesis 2. Although I think it has a "holder" that both the genesis and cd unit fit into wich goes underneath/around both. the Segacd1 has a sliding tray and the 2 a fliptop. Unless there are more than one version of the cd2 that I don't know about... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I have to start reading more closely, you did say underneath AND to the side, so I guess you did explain it right...sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCold Posted August 1, 2002 Author Share Posted August 1, 2002 Let me guess, the Sega cd hooks to that red connector that says "do not remove" on the genesis? that's what would make most sense. Well tomorrow I'm going back there to see if it's there, the lady said it had been there for 3 weeks, so 2 more days hopefully wouldn't have hurt and it'll hopefully still be there.
