    I have no Japanese or Euro games, but I'm curious. I've heard you can also get around the lockouts with a Game Genie and the proper code -- this assumes, of course, that all Mega Drive games will fit on the Genie. Are both of my assumptions true?

    I believe so. The only thing keeping a japanese MD game from playing on any genny seems to be cartridge shape. that's it. The NA Genny has a slot with notches, while the japaneses MD has a rectangle. I'm pretty sure my HoneyBee is a straight up pass thru- no real electronics. Therefore, if you pulled the cover off your genny, you could play japanese games. I don't see why a Genie wouldn't work, because it gets you past the notches in the slot.

    If you don't mind cutting off part of the PBC's rear section, it'll fit on the later Genesis consoles.

    Luckily, I have the original style -- but now I can't find a front-loader Sega CD to match it...

    Default Zenith Mod

    I think have been getting the same problem that Zenith TV’s get on my Toshiba 65NH84 that I just purchased. I have tried a Genesis 1, Genesis 2 using RF switch, and JVC X-Eye using composite video. They all do the same thing except when I hook up a Genesis to my VCR on channel 4 and then set my TV to channel 3, but the picture quality is crap.
    I was wondering if anyone attempted modifying JVC X-Eye, tried using some type of video converter, or a S-VHS VCR with S-Video outputs. I would be grateful for any help.
