I'm looking at buying a Sega CD, but it has no cords. What all do I need? I know it'll need it's own power cord. Does it need one to connect to the Genesis? I'm outside my comfort zone fellas. How much am I looking to spend to get this thing up and going? Help me out. |

It hooks right into the expansion port of your Sega Genesis (which has a removable plastic piece, like a battery compartment, and looks like a large cartridge port inside), so no, it does not need any additional hook-ups other than the power cord. It does have optional A/V ports, however, if you want better sound. |

You need an appropriate AC adapter MK-1602. SEGA has used different adapters for different models. It is not a good idea to swap these. Make sure that you get the appropriate adapter. It should be a model 1 genesis adapter for either of the sega CD models. But double check the 9 volts and 1.2 A. You also "need" a metal plate to put on the bottom of the genesis (should come with one screw as well). This helps secure things. I would look for this for a cheap price if possible. And congratulations on a fine purchase! |

It can vary greatly. I recently purchased one at a retail game store with the hookups, model 1 spacer, metal bracket for $50. I would consider this high, but I knew it worked and it was in fantastic condition. You can use this as a guide. |

This on is $20 with no hook ups and untested. If he won't go down to $15, I think I'll pass. |
