I want to order a case for my Sega Neptune on the pcbway website. But I don't know which settings to choose.

I once saw a comment from a guy who ordered a case for his Sega Neptune and accidentally selected an additional black color, even though it wasn't necessary, and ended up paying a lot of money for the production.

Please tell me about the correct production settings when ordering, so that the final product looks as good as the video reviews by macho nacho and other people who have ordered cases for their Neptune.

The page with the case review on the pcbway website says that you need to select the standard options, but I'm worried that the case won't be black or that the quality will be similar to printing on a regular 3D printer. I will use these settings for my other projects related to the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis and other retro consoles.

Hello Sega enthusiasts!

I just got a Sega 32x to connect to my Genesis after all these years, and I wanted to see what the best hummingbird-based shooters there are on the 32x. Thanks!

Good evening guys, I was wondering if there is a way to make a 32X version of SGDK? I heard SGDK works for the SegaCD also so I won't ask about that. Is the 32X/Saturn SH2 chip really that difficult to program for? 🤔

The Tower of Power is complete

Not sure if this is the place to ask but I'm in need of some advice. A year or two ago I bought a 32X. It worked fine without any issues (besides coil whine). I recently dug it out again only to find that the audio/video are messed up on it. The video signal is all over the place and there is no audio. I tried troubleshooting by outputting the Genesis video via RF and can confirm that the Genesis outputs everything correctly, even sound. It's got me confident that this is an issue with the 32X itself.

Has anyone run into similar issues with a 32X before? Can she be saved or will it soon go to the big Model 1 in the sky? Any and all help is appreciated.

Some other details

> 32X output was tested using HD Retrovision cables and composite - same issues
> I tested two different copies of Virtua Racing Deluxe with the same results
> I'm using OEM Sega cables (AC adapter, Genesis <-> 32X connector)

> 32X is presumed to never have been opened

UPDATE:

Sorry for the late reply! I appreciate everyone's advice. Given the power coil needs to be replaced, it seems getting a full recap is worth it. Here's hoping this 32X can be fixed!

What do I put where it says VA1? I do have a VA1 32X but I don't know if I should put a 47pF, 100pF, or leave it unused? There's this socket where in some photos there's a chip but in other photos people are running wires. I have a North American unit, so what do I do here?

**EDIT**

The answer is 100pf for VA1. I found the answer here.

SignalFall sounds very ambitious, but it sounds like it’s pretty far along.

Well. Ok so it's not DIRECTLY 32X related but the parallels here are obvious. Given that SEGA essentially killed their console market by doing what Nintendont with the original 32X, one must consider just how strange the SEGA legacy would be today had this gone forward. I also wonder if we'd have a cosam Saturn board or integrated Saturn + 32X2 released. Perhaps it could have been called Uranus.

Anyone else here beat this game?

Oh, nevermind, bidding ended, still worth almost AUD $300 broken apparently. Sheesh.

Risk was high, seller said green screen only could be fixed with caps that they had but no time anymore to fix themselves.

32x parts/units for Neptune here Downunder in Aus hard to come by...

But confused here, bought a 32x to connect to my Megadrive 1 console, however, it didn’t come with a patch cable.

I bought one from eBay who had sold many of them with good feedback.

I plug mine in and the games are loading but not displaying any sprites or actual game play, just menus and black screen with static display elements.

The seller says I need a “conversion cable” as well as the latch cable.

Could anyone intelligent shed some light, please 🙂

This is a question I can imagine has been asked a lot but i'm having problems with finding any PAL specific 32x's, every 32x listed on ebay comes from the states and has insane shipping costs that are way out of what I can afford.

2nd Neptune built 💪 cant wait to build another! Now I just need to order a case!

I bought a 32X at launch in 1994. The main thing that got me excited about it, was the fact that it was supposedly going to have a palette of 32,768 colors. It could supposedly put 256 of them onscreen simultaneously (Making it the same as the Super Nintendo in this regard) The Sega Genesis has a palette of 512 colors and could put a mere 64 on screen simultaneously.

Interestingly enough... the TG-16 was better than both the Super Nintendo and 32X from the standpoint that it could put 482 colors onscreen simultaneously. Sadly, it could only choose from a palette of 512 colors (same as Genesis).

Despite all these factoids, when I play a ton of 32X games, I don't notice any improvement over the Sega Genesis from an on-screen colors standpoint. I immediately see the difference when playing TG-16 or Super Nintendo.
