Can I power a foreign console in Australia? Yes. Leave the tech stuff to us! Our Australian power supplies are brand new and will power any console. People get very confused about importing a Japanese / USA console and running it here in Australia from our higher 240V. You don't need to worry about that as all SEGA consoles use DC internally. So, we simply take the 240V AC Voltage from the wall and convert it to a DC level that the console needs. Our power supplies solve all these issues and allow you to get on with playing games and less time with cables and set up. 2. Are the consoles tested? Yes of course. They are refurbished and ready to play. 3. Are the consoles repaired? Yes, we refurbish and repair various parts of the console to ensure it works perfectly. 4. Do you replace all of the capacitors?

Cap kit supply and install 5. What does the warranty cover? Normal use. 6. Can I play PAL games on a Japanese or USA Genesis? Yes. Physically, PAL games have the same shape and size as US games, so they will fit into a Genesis console. They will also fit a Japanese Mega drive by simple removing the physical lockout switch inside the Japanese console. We remove this lockout switch in all Japanese consoles prior to sale. Most PAL games will play fine, but not all.... read on.Most pre-1993 PAL games are region free and most of those will work on an NTSC console without problems. However, many later games will have either region locks or PAL optimizations for 50hz, which will prevent you from playing the games. Japanese games have a slightly different cart shape and therefore the cart slot opening on a Japanese console is larger with square edges. You can physically insert any cart into a Japanese console, noting they will play USA carts mostly without issue and most PAL carts if they are pre 1993. Early games like Sonic 1 play on any console. 7. What's all this PAL 50hz VS NTSC 60hz nonsense? It's best just to watch this highly detailed video to explain it. In a nutshell, the PAL consoles from Australia and Europe run slightly slower than their USA and Japanese counterparts. Some people still prefer 50hz for nostalgia reasons and to play original PAL games, but the NTSC consoles at 60hz are hard to pass up. We highly recommend doing a language and 50/60hz region free mod to your console if you plan on playing games from mixed regions. Learn more here. 8. Can I use my Everdrive? Yes, and we'd recommend a Genesis or Japanese console as they already running at 60hz. Your Everdrive will take care of the region and everything else.
