Ok well I decide to hook up my old Sega Genesis along with the Sega CD attachment to my TV only to discover that I dont have the right hook ups or at least I dont think I do. I have a red and yellow cable that goes from the Genesis to the TV but my TV only has red yellow and white hooks up I tried different combinations but all I get is sound and no visual. Is there somewhere I can go to get other hook ups or am I just not hooking it up right?

Thanks for any and all help.

The Genesis may not be compatable with those more modern hookups. I know it doesn't come with that kind of cable.

Ash: Professor Oak, how's your Bulbasaur?
Prof. Oak: Oh, it only hurts when I sit.

Prof. Oak: It's only Chansey if Krabby won't let go. Bye, now.
Ash: I don't think I'm going to call him anymore.

I don't know for sure but it could work with a SCART-adapter.

Scart is Euopean mostly.

Try an AV cable with a Mega Drive Cable as the end.

Mega Drive 2 only here but there are Model 1 versions.

@Starlight: Actually that looks like it might work . I forgot to mention that my Genesis model is the Genesis 2 one. Being a Nintendo Fanboy during the SNES era I didnt get my Genesis till later and than again I only got it for Streets of Rage and the Sonic games.

Anyway thanks Starlight I am going to google that and see if that works.

No problem, you should find them really cheap...I got mine for £6 (including delivery), which is about $10.

Despite what many people may think, I am happy with the AV output rather then Composite as it does remind me of the older resolution which most of us grew up with.

@Starlight: Yeah I found a place online that I can get it from for $6 plus shipping and handling. I also have a retro game store in my area that I want to check out and see if they have one.
