Get Power Base Converter to run SG-1000 games?

Post by BitFaced »

I know the Power Base Converter isn't compatible with SG-1000 games (through card or Master System flash cart) because it can't run video modes 0, 1, 2 or 3. So I propose a few suggestions as to getting SG-1000 games to run on the Power Base Converter:

1. Hack the Power Base Converter or console to run video modes 0, 1, 2 & 3.
2. Find another Master System to Mega Drive/Genesis adapter that can run video modes 0, 1, 2 or 3.
3. Force or adapt SG-1000 games to run in a different video mode.

Are any of these possible or is there absolutely no way to get SG-1000 games to run in any fashion at all? Please let me know!

For questions 1 and 2: The Genesis/Megadrive (as in its video chip) itself lacks these video modes not the converter, for this reason there is nothing you can do.

For question 3: No.
