Super CDROM 2 to SuperGrafx jumper power cord

[Bardoly]

I have recently acquired a Super CDROM 2 to go with my SuperGrafx console, but of course, the jumper power cord which comes with the Super CDROM 2 fits to a PC Engine, not to a SuperGrafx.  I see this one for sale in Hong Kong for $7.00 + $4.55 shipping, but I was wondering if anyone knew a better/cheaper place to get one?  Or maybe someone has an extra one?  If my memory serves me correctly, it seems that retrogamecave.com used to sell this a while back, but he has closed up shop for now.

I think this should work.  I have a few and have been meaning to make sure everything still lines up correctly.  If I remember, I will try to test it tomorrow.

You are correct. Same size as a DUO plug. I have a number of these. I'll just hand one to you when I pick up that DUO you need repaired.

[mickcris]

cool. wasn't sure that the original cable was long enough for that to be attached too and if it would fit in the super cdrom's cutout.

[Keith Courage]

hmmm, welll I'm not too sure about the cut out. I just know the tip will fit and work with the supergrafx.

[mickcris]

I forgot i took mine apart to recap.  maybe ill finish that up tomorrow and put it back together to test to see if that will fit.

if not, i can make one for the OP for cheaper than gamedrhk.  I have some of each of those sizes in my parts box.  should be under $5 shipped.

[Bardoly]

Sounds good!

[mickcris]

I threw it back together (as much as needed) to test and it works.  So no need to get another cable.  Just use one of those adapters.

I actually did not have the size that plugs into the super cdrom anyways.  I thought it was a 4.75 x 1.7 but its a little bigger than that.

Sheesh, what happened to that poor lil guy?  Did he get stranded out in the Gobi desert for a couple months?

It must have been from a Godzilla attack.  I think he gives off UV radiation.

Got to retrobright that shit!

[mickcris]

Looks like somebody urinated on that poor SCD repeatedly. Give it a wipe, will you? 

By the way, I'd like to see a top-down-shot of both pieces of hardware being attached together, just out of interest.

It looks like a match made in heaven of course

Thumbs up for this money shot!
