--- Quote from: CommunistGamer ---or wire a nine pin and use the SG-1000 joystick?
--- End quote ---



--- Quote from: Dr.Agon ---probably could do either/both of those

got a 9 pin in there, wanted to get something in place, used the nes controller as it was a spare so i could get gaming without having to spend any more money, i'll be making an arcade style stick for this somewhere down the line...


--- Quote from: CommunistGamer ---trust me use the original sega joystick, tis the best

--- End quote ---

not when compared with a custom arcade stick made with sanwa and seimetsu parts...

--- Quote from: Dr.Agon ---despite being a generally lazy git, i couldnt resist doing a bit of work on this, so...PICCY TIME!!

this is the shell i'll be using, already trashed the board and added the logo;



tried to make the 6 look like an 8, kinda works at a distance...

close up of my logo;




made the logo in paint from the japanese MD logo, i think its turned out quite well!

took the cart connector off and fixed it in place;



it sits where the old one was, so...slightly modded cart flap, closed;



open;



and with game in place;



its columns!



it fits really well!, all-in-all im very happy with how that turned out!

this is the final pic for tonight, the board in place;



thats where its going to sit, with the video board off to the side.
probably start the soldering tomorrow, we shall see...

--- Quote from: BadChad ---Looking forward to seeing a few more pics on that Mega Gear. I seriously wanna either do this myself sometime or have someone do it for me. I think Id call it the Game Gear TV (GGTV). Ive recently been trying to replace my game gear games with the Master System versions if they exist so I can play them on my TV. Not sure what Id use to house the whole thing because I want to put in something that can give it its own unique look. Could always try and build something I guess.
