Hey fellas! I finally decided to purchase the Tower of Power for my Genesis mini 1! I'm still waiting to receive them as they are being shipped from Japan. But, does anyone know if someone has made decals to replace the Japanese versions to US?

Can’t say it looks all that much better. Anyone else have success with it?

Where is the best place to get these? Some places have the extra pin you’re not supposed to have, a LOT of places have chinese clones, etc. I’d way rather have the OEM cable but feels like they’re impossible to find. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I recently decided to use my Genesis model 2 and 32X, but when I began playing Contra: Hard Corps, I noticed that something was off with the music. Specifically, some instruments or beats were missing (not sure if I'm describing it right) during the songs that play on the character select screen and the briefing right before the first level. I turned everything off, removed the 32X, powered on just the Genesis, and the music was back to normal.

I'm using a Mega Everdrive Pro cart, my Genesis has the triple bypass mod, and the 32X had its caps, video correction and main inductor replaced with new ones two years ago.

Considering Genesis/MD games weren't made with the 32X in mind, are sound anomalies something to be expected when they're played with the add-on? If that's the case, then what is the incentive for the upcoming Neptune PCB by Cossam if it's going to result in regular games having sound issues? If however, my 32X is the problem, will using Cossam's PCB potentially fix these issues?

EDIT: Forgot to mention the cable I'm using to connect the Genesis and 32X together has 8 pins on one end and 9 pins on the other.

Does the 32x have any exclusives worth buying the 32x for?

Just got a new link cable for my 32X after hooking everything up I powered it on but it was being powered by the 32X itself I unplugged the genesis and the sega CD and the 32X kept on trucking. I unplugged the 32X and kept the second Genesis and Sega CD plugged in and I can turn it on and off in the 32X still works. Is there any fix for this?

Curious if there are any rom hacks or game ports that utilize both the 32X AND Sega CD...

I just got a complete tower of power yesterday and have already been playing with a few cool projects like Sonic Robo Blast 2 and Tomb Raider.... but both of these only use the 32x... Looking at the difference in games like night trap... there seems to be a pretty significant upgrade in visuals when using both add ons and would like to see what this console can really be pushed to do!

Slight hope with things like Sword of Apocalypse being made for the neptune! hopefully it will be compatible with original 32x hardware too! (assuming they make a physical cartridge)

Considering the Star Fox was ported to PC a few weeks ago, it would be interesting if someone got it working on the 32x

Just a passing thought as I've been getting into my Mega Drive stuff lately (and hoping my Mega Drive 2/Mega CD 2/32x are still at my parents somewhere!)

I know the 32x was a failure, and to some extent the Mega CD was too, but I've often wondered why there weren't any proper games made for the Mega CD/32X combo, which were mainly just crap FMV games (probably only 4 or 5 of them) Was it just too late in the life cycle? As the thread title asks, would the MegaCD and 32x combo have been capable of the types of games released on the Saturn?

Its addon for Genesis. Not too expensive and some games are good. I do not have problems with only around 40 games but more that they are not significantly better than an existing Genesis games.

I like that 32X exists and its something I can buy and extend my Genesis capabilities. I do not get that narrative that its completely failed project. Limited lifespan - yes, until Saturn arrives.

As I understand Sega killed 32X too quickly, it should co-exists with Saturn and have simplified versions of Saturn games because an existing Genesis userbase is huge and not everybody will buy Saturn - most people didn't.

In Dreamcast SEGA did everything right and got massacred by PS2 - everybody did. Sega CD is a fail because its too expensive and does too little but 32X and Saturn are competitive products. Saturn have more games than N64 and nobody complains that N64 is a fail.

So Sonic Galatic is def getting ported to the 32x right??

I really liked the feel of the hyperkin Genesis controllers but the d-pads I found are wearing out too fast. So now I'm trying out these retro bit officially sanctioned SEGA Genesis controllers so far they feel like originals but look nicer and have longer courts fingers crossed they hold up 🤞

Enjoy DOOM-Resurrection game saves in DOOM FUSION

This is a Mixed Mode CD cd-image for CD32X Fusion v1.0 (very first version) 

It contains a soundtrack and the data needed for the game in Mixed-Mode CD format.
You'll need your own ROM.

Tested on real hardware using MegaEverdrive Pro, MEGA X7 and Sega-Blaster flash carts.
ARES emulation seems to work ok.

Start with clean cart and or back up game saves first to start with a clean game. (the bram.srm on a Mega cart)

CDDA track order is correct until first game save and the system is power cycled.
I am sorry this method breaks SPCM audio.
FM and CDDA Only.

To start the game with the correct audio at the DOOM logo use the File Browser with the C button and start RESURREC.WAD

Use UltraISO to edit the BIN if you want to change the order or add and remove tracks.

All this will all change as development moves forward. I dont know why any of this really works.

MEGA X7 does not work.

With that said, expect any changes to the next version of FUSION to make this CD obsolete
and the GAME SAVE that goes with it would need to be erased to move forward.

I was playing Crazy Taxi on the Gameboy Advance realising it was a Dreamcast game but never even made it to the Saturn. The GBA does have some decent dedicated 3D capabilities.

Was the 32x more powerful than the Gameboy advance and if so then by how much?

Excited to finally own one! I've had my Genesis model 2 for several years now and have always been curious about the Sega CD and 32x, but I'm not one to pay market for consoles and ads-ons.

Lo and behold, Facebook Marketplace listing for a 32x for only $75. Snatched it up. It only came with the spacer, no cords so I'm still out about $100 overall but seeing they tend to go for $130-150 on eBay even without the cords, I'm very thankful.

First few games I'm getting are probably Metal Head, Star Wars Arcade, and Virtua Racing. I'd love some of the other ones but they are outside my price range... I tend to not get everdrives, simply because half of retro gaming to me is collecting each game, but for the 32x, I might just because a lot of its small game library are high in price.

Here's to maybe getting s good deal on a Sega CD someday for a complete Tower of Power.

Is anyone else having this problem? I had the same issue with Doom 32X Resurrection and ended up just getting a repro to be able to play it. The problem is, the current repros for Fusion don't save either. I've tried different firmwares but still lose my save after powering off.

Yeah, I could just use the level select and the codes for weapons, but then I have a shit ton of ammo I didn't find and it ruins the experience.

Playing the demo on a Mega Everdrive Pro cartridge. Would’ve uploaded an video of it if the community allowed it!
