Hey, I just took delivery of my new Megadrive and was wondering what model I have here exactly?
It was advertised as a Japanese MD so I have no doubts there and naturally, all the box text is in Japanese. The one I got appears to brand new, never been opened in fact, I'm very pleased with it.
Can anyone shed some light on whether this is the original shape JPN MD or whether it is a later revision of the old shape.
It has the gold "16-BIT" writing, blue reset button, blue start button on the control pad and has a red band around the power LED. There is no writing around the circular band where the power LED is, just plain black broken up by the afore mentioned red band.
The shape of the console looks slightly flatter and more blocky than I remember Megadrives to look back in the day but it's probably the same, I dunno.
Anyways, how can I connect my MD to my TV, I don't think I'll bother with the enclosed AV leads...I want RGB so am I correct in thinking that I can use my AES RGB lead ( with headphone bit that I purchased from VGI ) with this MD...I remember someone saying you could.
Also, can I use the same step down too...or are the consoles different when it comes to power comsumptions?
Thanks
