So, I've had my 32X for a while now and have become incredibly addicted to Space Harrier. I've just recently moved, and in the move... The 32X doesn't work. Nothing happened to it, I made sure all my console boxes were pretty much packed tight and not jumbled around... But it doesn't work anymore. The cables are in the right place... Genesis games, nor 32X games work through the console. I'm puzzled, but am wondering if this has happened to people before, and if there's a way to find out what it is and solve the problem. Because I'm getting Space Harrier withdrawals.

The 32X is illegal in some states do to its extreme amount of awesomeness and several safegaurds have been put in place statewide to prevent the 32X from powering up once it is detected on the power grid. You see, the 32X is so awesome that it requires more power than the local electric company can realistically provide, so they had to outlaw the thing. I suggest writing to your governor.

LOL. Well, I moved 20 miles away from my old location, so, it might be something wrong with Olympia...

You might have the "ribbon syndrome", as I like to call it.. This has happened to me TWICE already...

Take the mushroom apart, remove the top RF shielding, and see those white ribbons? Remove both, and re-insert them..

This site shows how to do it, step my step, and is a bit humorous..
