Got to retrobright that shit!

Careful using retro bright on those gray super CD drives. I tried it once and some of the gray color actually turned too white in some spots making things look all splotchy and uneven. Same can be said for the Gray core grafx game pads as well.

Never had a problem using retro bright on any other NEC systems thus far and I've been doing it for a couple years 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.


Oh! That's a nice trick!

I have a SGX and SCDROM^2 and I had on my TODO to cut the default cable to extend it. The adapter trick is more elegant and less destructive... So this particular one works perfectly fine? (juts confirming before ordering one)

Yeah. It's the right one.

Same thing happened to one of my SuFami's.  Stupid me left the grey inner part of the case on and it was ruined.  It sucks that we cannot buy liquid peroxide in large quantities in my country.  All I've found is a 200ml bottle and that is about $7.

As for the SG+SCD2 combo, it's quite hideous looking, but I am looking forward to having it in my collection :p
