Having stereo is definitely a winner on the model 3. Mono is just about my only complaint.

People actually like the m3 Genesis consoles? I didn't really know that. I scored a BNIB one for free and just never thought about it.

I actually got it to match the wireless controller receiver that attaches to the front. It looks much better on the 3 vs. the 1 or 2 (ha ha).

Looks clean... is the video the same quality as the Model 1?

You mean the S-video? (which is a very different question than stock genesis 3 vs stock model 1)

VERY cool looking! The wireless controller unit at the front looks great on a model 3.

Until you people make a Mega Drive-Toaster Hybrid then your puny designs and upgrades fail.

this is indeed true, it especially looks horrible on the Model 1

This actually looks beautiful. I want this!

Where abouts are the region switches, is that them on the right hand side?

If someone would make one of these for me i would pay some serious cash!

No, I mean, how does the Composite Video of the 3 look compared to the 1?

Yes sir on the right hand side.

Some expert may correct me from what I read the composite video is close to a good version Genny 1.

That being said. The s-video to me looks so darn good. Crisper and more vibrant.

Actually, is much better than a Genesis model 1 video...The CXA1645 video encoder is superior to the CXA1145....

EDIT: For those interested, I go one for sale, fully modded, including the 32X system, Game Genie and Master System converter compatibility mods+ all in one single region switch :ok: ..**SOLD**

Don't some Model 1s (even US models) used the MB3514 with similar clarity tot he CXA1645 (superior depending on other factors -1645 looks poor on some model 2s as recently seen, particularly some VA3s). I know it's fairly common in PAL units.
The only other issue is it's a bit darker than the 1145 or 1645. (though I think the MB3514 lack the vertical bars in chroma that the Sony encoders have)

My Model 1 looks better. It's 2354MC9ner Video Encoder is vastly superior to anything you could possibly do to your Genesis.


My Genesis plays my games for me.... can yours do that?

Only in a certain revision, and if it is modded...
