Need: Briefcase unit
« on: November 08, 2011, 03:47:21 AM »
I've got my super grafx9000 w/ RAU-30 just begging to be connected to a briefcase unit.

I also want a briefcase unit because they're awesome.

Does anyone have one?  if so, how many moneys for it.

I want the full setup.  If you've got one with a busted CD drive for cheaper, that may work better since I can shove the black CD in it for a multiracial love fest.

I believe Keith Courage has a spare one.  Might ask him about the details.

You just want the Interface Unit itself or are you looking for anything else with it, like a CoreGrafx, CD-ROM2, etc?

If you are just looking for a naked Interface Unit, this site (which is very reliable) has them for 174 yen. That's about $2!

http://www.suruga-ya.jp/database/262001532001.html

Here are a few current auctions:

http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b125161998 (with a core grafx 2)
http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w67493916 (looks to be in good shape)

I have a IFU with a busted CD-ROM2 that I don't need but the case has a pretty decent scratch on the front so I don't know if you'd be interested.

I think forum member coolmod said he has a bunch of them with the broken cdromrom so if you don't need the cdromrom maybe you can talk to him. He's in the US  too I believe.

Yeah lets see everyones broke-ass CDRomRoms w/ IFUs. 

I'd like the full setup in working order because you can never have too many fully working, but, lets see what people have.

Here's mine. I was looking for a spare CoreGrafx and this popped up untested for around $25. Figured it was worth the gamble but the CDROM unit is busted. I know a guy that can fix them but I'll probably just buy a working unit later on. The briefcase unit is the sex. The original DUO comes in at second place, and the R/RX is third for me as far as looks goes.

Wow that does look nice! I've never seen these before either.

I'm confused, how will you be attaching your supergrafx to this then?

That's what the RAU-30 is for, it connects to the SuperGrafx's expansion port and then goes to the suitcase where a PC Engine would go.

Yeah it ends up looking like this monstrosity!



Wow, and looking at this here, it seems that the Supergrafx is a little bigger than a complete suitcase unit.
What a pig!

Also, while we are talking about weird suitcase combos, look at this crazy set up:



Can anyone identify that orange thing sticking out of the front of the LT?
He's got a US CD unit so maybe it's some kind of HuCard converter? I'm not aware of any US to Japanese converters though.

Oh ok I see, I've never heard of the RAU-30 either. :P I'm pretty sure it is a converter and I could have sworn I actually saw one somewhere for sale recently. Does that mess in the second picture actually play??? Or is it the NEC equivalent of the Sega tower of power?

Don't see why it wouldn't work! Not sure why you'd need all of those controllers though. I think the guy is just showing off.

Ah and the Sega Tower... It's a shame the guy didn't use a model 1 Genesis/SegaCD combo as it would make it even bigger and taller.
