Bought SNK VS Capcom and Metal Slug: First Mission for $16 at my local store, they had like 4 NGPC boxed for $50

First I picked up a RAU-30 adapter with box & manual. The unit itself is in absolute mint condition and looks like it was never used. Bought it off eBay from a US seller for $50.

 



Of course then I needed a SuperGrafx. So I got one with with region and RGB mods, SCART cable, and a complete copy of Mad King Granzort from doujindance (eBay) for $200.

Here they are all mated together. The IFU and CD-ROM² care of our very own Samurai Ghost (https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=5360.msg228180#msg228180).

nice SGX! how does Aldynes look? I have always wanted to play SGX in RGB!

[Deletion]

I don't have Aldynes.   Granzort looks and plays well though.   I have the system hooked up via composite as I'm still looking for my first SCART converter.

If you dont have a monitor that can take in RGB adapting it to VGA would look nice and wont require an encoder.

Nice deletion but you cd deck could use a little whitening:)

Forgive me, but what is this thing?  What does it do for SGX?

It just allows you to hook up the SGX to a IFU because you cannot plug it in directly due to the shape of the SGX. The Super CD Rom though attaches to the back of a SGX which is a nice set up as well.

sick.

Can you point me towards a good adapter?

[Tatsujin]

Oh that's all sorts of awesome. I had no idea it could hook up to the ifu...wow

How about some "handy" sapphire, over a decade before the PSP release?

lol, wasn't deletion's picture above self-explanatory enough?

I know, but I got a great deal from Samurai Ghost on the briefcase setup so I can't complain. Placed next to the bright white RAU-30 really illustrates how discolored the units have become. I'm going to try whitening the PCE and CD-ROM² soon.
