Sega CD power supply question

Post by RickyHenry »

I have someone who is selling a MODEL 1 and MODEL 2 Sega CD to me, but they do not have power supplies. Is there a 3rd party power supply that I could pick up to make these work? I remember a long time ago, using an NES power supply on a Sega CD, but I'm not sure how safe that is. Any advice would be great! Thanks!

you need voltage and amp ratings, some google-fu should work. iirc, model 1 is the genny 2 power and model 2 is the model 3 power. dont take my word tho, we have a thread for power adatpters.

I need to organize all my power cables soon...

Quick question: do a Master System, Model 1 Genesis, and Model 2 Sega CD all use the same power supply?
