I think it looks kind of retarded now.  Like "unfinished, gonna get scuffed to hell and shit" retarded.

I want a canary yellow setup.

I think it looks great in the picture, but someone has to really understand how to paint in order to make something durable enough to actually use.

Or if you're using an IC region mod... change your SPST switch out for a DPDT switch and have one half of the switch controlling the grounding of pin 29. :P

Yeah, I remember writing about that exact method (connecting the board to a DPDT switch) years ago.  I wonder if anyone ever did try to see if Aldynes would run okay afterward.  I can't possibly see a reason why it wouldn't though.

Now, as for the all-white SGX setup, It's neat, but there's... something missing here -- I think it might have to do with the SCD-ROM missing its letters.  It would've been nice to have the lettering match that of the SuperGrafx.  (bitch bitch bitch  :D

And yeah, not sure about how well that paint is going to stick, but that's a different matter.

Not quite canary yellow, but close enough:

Being an "engine" and all, it'd be pretty cool if someone went all out and did the SuperGrafx in a metallic gray with different trim for the hex nuts and all.
