    Default Sega CD with Model 1 Genesis

    was looking around the other day and came upon a few nice finds. main one that got my attention was a snes,saturn, and a genesis model 1 with a sega cd. but it wasn't the normal one with the model 1 it was the side by model for the model 2 genesis. looks very ugly with it. my question is: i didn't get any cables or cords with the cd/genny, will they work together or should i find a model 2 genny?

    I have the side tumor Sega CD w/ a model 1 genesis. I hate it.

    It is UGLY to the extreme. Did you get the little underpiece that sits on the left side to fill in that gap since the genesis 1 hangs off the edge like 3 inches?

    You can use the typical cords for each, they work fine, and then run the audio out of the sega CD to a stereo and crank it.

    I just know the genesis uses a different ac adaptor than the sega cd as far as specs on the adaptor..., Im not sure if it actually makes a difference, but if you get the ones that go to each youll be OK.

    I am truly baffled at how some people's aesthetics can be so easily offended. It reminds me of people who can't stand playing GBA games on the DS Lite because OMG IT STICKS OUT HOW HORRIBLE.

    I mean, geez, do you spend more time looking at the system than playing it? When you try to play the games, are you unable to concentrate because your eyes keep drifting from the screen to look at some piece of plastic?

    well, its this like 2 foot wide black lumpy mess on the bottom shelf of all my stuff, and when you take it out, you got this dumbass black thing that isn't even attached to make the thing even looking on the shelf anyways.

    it only looks like shit when clicked onto a genesis 1 since its all uneven.

    that doesn't change the fact that the thing feels cheap when you move it around though.

    A Model 1 w/ Model 2 SCD is the only SCD setup I have at the moment.

    The additional plastic really helps make it look better. It's still huge, less, but it's more like... American huge, rather than Franken-Huge.

    Each one needs a power supply to work. They both use the same type of supply. Video out is from the Genesis. Audio can be too, or you can use the stereo out on the Sega CD. If you use the Sega Cd audio out,with the Genesis 1 I do believe you need a audio mixing cable that plugs into the earphone jack and into the back of the Sega Cd. After everything is combined it'll form Menasor.
    Enjoy.

    Yup, that's how I got mine.

    It's one long mother, but honestly I don't think it's that ugly. All the cables is my biggest beef with it, which makes me glad I own a CDX as well for when I want something small with no fuss.

    yeah, as far as I know though, the Sega CD one requires a bit more ampage.

    Im not climbing behind the TV and traversing the tangle of doom to check for sure though.

    you really want to mix the audio and use the audio out like PCE HELL said. Its killer.


    Vay especially, hot the fuck damn its great.

    sadly, the piece to the side didn't come with it, so as you say it hangs off the side, looks like a hideous monstrosity even without the cables hooked up. I knew the ac adapters were different, but after seeing the model 1 with the side by side i wasn't even sure if it would work.... i mean if its that ugly it shouldn't be a working unit right?

    even worse i have a 32x i bought from toysrus back in the day, i'm afraid to hook all these cords.....

    do it.

    attach everything, and then plug like

    32X--> Sonic + Knuckles ---> as much other crap as you can stack.

    and see what happens

    it might be like the time i did super gamegenie--> super gameboy ---> gameboy game genie ---> pokemon yellow ----> broken SNES

    boy was that a funny day.


    the side-car sega CD is ugly and feels cheap when you hold it.

    At Sega-16, we call the Model 1/SCD Model 2/32X setup "Super Battleship Formation".

    When you view that mass of black plastic, you'll know why.

    Possibility is infinity! You must be satisfied!

    It looks more like an aircraft carrier.
