Buying 32x Conversion Cable
- Thread starter cobski
- Start date
. It's the cable that allows the 32X to be played on a Genesis 1. I'm looking to pay $5 US plus shipping, but the price is negotiable.GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD LUCK!
Aren't you the one who was eager to trade Virtua Fighter 2, Daytona USA, Astal and another junk for a PSD?

Ummm... no?
I don't even know what the heck a PSD is. And considering Sega Parts sold the conversion cable for $2, I thought $5 was a pretty good deal.lordofduct

Hrmmm, well i have a home made one i made a real long time ago... i used it for several years until i finally bought a legite... it works fine, made out of a mini din, sewing needles, and wire really from a genny a/v cable... so if you want it toss me 3 bucks. it does work.

ummmm.... im having a hard time locating it, i might find it when i move this week... hopefully... i was so proud of that thing... made it years ago. first ever home made and USEABLE thing in my collection.
why not building one? the first posts i ever made were about that.
it took me some time but i've connected 2 mega/sega genesis 1 and 1 sega genesis 2 to 32x and a cdx to a 32x and they all work fine.
1. get pinouts for mega/sega genesis 1 and 32 x at gamesx.com
2. buy solid core wire (insulated would be better) thin enough to
plug in the 32x mini din connection (you need to peel the
insulation just to plug the wire in the conecction 6 milimeters
would be fine, both sides)
3. cut 7 wires 10 to 11 centimeters long, plug them one on one
using the pinouts as a guide to keep them in place use a
silicone gun. (genesis 2 to 32x connection).
to plug on the genesis 1 you will need a male din connector
and solder the tip of the solid core
wire or just plug the wine inside the hole of the din female
and solder the tip directly to the board of the console.
4. if you connect port (+5 v) mega/sega genesis 1/2 to 32x is
possible to use only the power adaptor for the mega/sega
genesis 1/2 to power both the console and the ad on.
some people say it will fry your power source but i use to
play 5 hour sessions 4 days a week and my setting works fine.
this will be more fun and easier than buying a connector.

they've have them at www.sega-parts.com again too.
I believe they are endorsed by SEGA themselves. Im not positive, but when i called SEGA a few years ago, they told me to go there for any old parts... that they dont distribute old parts themselves and have there parts distributed by that website.
