| Tue, 23-06-2009 | MD/Genesis 2 Crystal Clear Audio |
| Forum member Tiido has created a new crystal-clear audio amp for the Genesis/MegaDrive (model 2) to create what he says is clearer audio than the standard machine. Check it out!

| Sun, 25-01-2009 | SNESjr RGB mod link update |
| As seen in the forum, it seems that my ten-year-old SNES2 RGB mod was not working for everyone, and a new one was posted on the wiki.
Here it is!

| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Complete Overhaul, and other updates... |
| I've completely re-done the whole of this page. Yeah, I know, it looks the same, but now it's running on a real content management system. One secret shame I've harboured while running this site for the last eleven years is that it was all manually edited HTML, but no longer!
Which means, among other things, there's finally an RSS feed!
Other News:
I've started a new site for controllers: reviews, technical and other fun things. NFGcontrols.com.
NFGgames.com is undergoing a revival also, with a move to the new system.
And that's update #2 for 2008. =(

| Sun, 26-11-2006 | Nintendo Wii AV Pinout |
| Thanks to forum members RGB32E and dustinh2k there is now a Wii AV pinout on the wiki. It's not complete yet - five pins are still unknown, but odds are good that they're RGB. If you know anything we don't, leave a note on the forum (no registration required!).

| Mon, 30-10-2006 | A couple of updates |
| I've fixed an old, long-standing error in the Japanese Computer 15-pin video connector. There are significant differences between the X68000 and PC-9801, and FM Towns. Sorry if your monitor blew up 'cause of me.
I've also put together a brief page on adding power to RGB cables that need it.

| Wed, 20-09-2006 | Overclocking the PC Engine |
| RobIvy has thrown a faster clock into his PCEngine and, apparently, it was a success. Games run faster, but so does the sound. A marginal increase in speed reduces slowdown in some games without raising the pitch too much.

| Mon, 03-07-2006 | Sharp X-1 Twin Computer/PC Combo |
| Following up on the well-received PCFX Disassembly (did anyone even know it was there?) I've torn apart a Sharp X1 Twin. This weird hybrid PC Engine/X1 computer, obviously never released outside Japan, should probably have never existed. I'm not sure why Sharp bothered, but then they were always into weird combo units. Enjoy!

|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | NFG is dead. Long live NFG! |
| 2Y.NET has been down for a few days now, and while I've no reason to believe it's permanent, it has caused nfg.2y.net to stop working. Because of this, I'm pleased to announce NFG Games now has a permanent home: NFGGames.com.
So for the few of you who might come here wondering where NFG Games has gone, now you know.

| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Several new page updates |
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Saturn Import Mod (revisited) |
| I've gone through several revisions of the Saturn import mod. This is the latest. It's a really simple concept once you get your head around it, but I've always had trouble trying to explain it. Now, with the help of some fancy animated GIFs and a pair of massive tables, I think the concept is clearer than ever. The old page can be found here.

| Wed, 26-11-2008 | The new Wiki |
| If there's one thing we all know, it's that I can't be counted on to do regular updates, either new stuff or corrections of the old stuff. To combat this I've put together a wiki - a publicly editable version of GameSX that will allow anyone to edit the pages, create new ones and generally fix the stuff you can't rely on me to fix.
I'm sorry, I suck.
In other news I've got STACKS of new mods coming up - PCEngine, SNES, MegaDrive + NEO GEO mods stacked up to the roof. Nearly 100 Japanese hard hacking mags filled with mods and fun tricks for every console under the sun. Coming soon! In the mean time, check out the wiki.

|
| Fri, 08-10-2004 | Try, try again... |
| The update I made last night sucked, so I rewrote the whole page from scratch. Here, for your enjoyment, is the definitive guide to adding RGB to your PC Engine. All new pics, all new text, all new love. If you find errors or have suggestions you can Mail me. Oh yeah, this is something you may have missed. I made an all-new video primer, with loads more diagrams and actual comprehensible text, on my other game site. Check it out.

|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Time to update a few things... |
| After an amazing six full years I've finally updated the PC Engine/TurboGrafx RGB page. I fixed a slew of errors, replaced the crappy RGB amp with one far better, explained a few things more clearly, and added nearly ten new pictures. There's more to come.
|
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Huzza, an update! |
| I've whipped up a horrible page showing, in excruciating detail, how to make a Saturn USB pad. Have a look. That is all, carry on.

|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Downtime and other suckitude |
| Many of you have noticed the appalling lack of contiguous uptime around here lately, and for that I apologize. The great little company that has hosted this site since about 1996 has been absorbed by some woefully incompetant company and the results have been appalling, to say the least. Please forgive me for allowing this to happen.
In other news, none of the contact emails on this site work, they generate about 700 spam a day now so I've cut them off. Please use this page for all emails to me, and for all questions or mod discussions please see the forums.

| Wed, 26-11-2008 | X68000 PowerSupply Repair Guide |
| Along with our HiSaturn mod the X68000 Power Supply Repair Guide is something no one else will probably ever need to use. For those of you who do have an X68000 though this page is hugely useful. The power supplies in these great old computers blow a lot. In other news, 2y.net is back online, and so are the forums.

| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Partial iQue AV pinout |
| Thanks to HunterX on the GameSX forums for sending us the first partial pinout of Nintendo's Chinese iQue system.
|
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Some updates... |
| I've whipped up an Illuminated Saturn mod. Also, I've redesigned the mainpage again. The old one, in case you forgot, looked like this. I hope you'll all agree the new look is easier on the eyes, hit the forums and let me know.
|
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | A whole mess of updates for you |
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | MCCap Software Found |
| Thanks to gnuz for digging up a copy of the old MCCap software. This is a home-built Playstation memory card reader, do check it out if you're interested.
|
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | XRGB-2 Mod, Forums Moved |
| Converting an XRGB-2 from J-RGB to PAL/SCART is very easy. Please see this forum post. Also, the Forums have moved from their old home on AtariLabs to a faster server on nfggames.com. New registrations are required, sorry about that.

|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Saturn Controller Data |
| Here's some info I've had for a very long time but never got around to translating and drawing up diagrams for: The Saturn controller port. It's a neat thing, the Saturn recognizes and uses Megadrive peripherals! Shame I don't have the pinout for 'em... Anyway, check it out: Right Here!
|
|
| Wed, 26-11-2008 | Updated Saturn ModPage |
| Created five new diagrams and five new PCB pics to make up for the appallingly crappy Saturn import mod page I've ignored for like six years. Please have a look. I hope you like it.
