Please help me find a Japan region RGB switch box

Post by Inazuma »

If anyone knows of an online site that sells Japanese RGB switch boxes, please tell me about it. It seems that European RGB scart switch boxes just won't work on Japanese RGB ports, period. I bought this one and it will not work at all on my XRGB-3, despite having every pin wired and every port RGB supported.

If there is a similar product made in Japan for Japanese RGB ports, I would love to hear about it. It would also need to be a manual switching one, since auto switching ones don't work with game consoles. It really sucks having all these RGB consoles but only one port to use them on.

Feel free to ignore my suggestion until every other option is exhausted.....

Hack the planet.

Get a couple scart female connectors, wire them up to 25 Pin D-Subs and

Probably $12 in parts, fairly easy labor since both connectors are pretty easy to solder to, and $17 for the 6 port job. $30 total.

I don't know that even if you could find one you could find one for that kind of price.

I found one! According to the description it supports up to 3 inputs. I just need to figure out a way to buy it. It says it's no longer being sold so it may be difficult.
