As is, the original NEC PC Engine outputs only RF. This kit consists of 2 components that will upgrade the console to output RGB. As part of the install, the RF port will be replaced with a Sega Genesis 2 9 pin miniDIN port that will enable the following outputs:

  • composite video
  • RGB
  • Component Video (using HD Retrovision cables or similar RGB to component encoders)

A comprehensive install includes the following:

  • Replace the RF only port with a Sega Genesis 2 9 pin miniDIN port
  • Enable all the pins on the port to have the same electrical characteristics as a real Sega Genesis 2 (standard Genesis cables will work)
  • Install RGB amp
  • Install stereo audio amp - multi I/O port on the back does no output line level audio, requiring older mods to increase the volume on the TV to max to hear anything. This amp will fix this
  • replace 2 ceramic capacitors on the board to remove jailbars in video output

NOTE(S):

  • An original (white) PC Engine system must be provided in good working condition
  • RGB amp, audio amp, 9 pin miniDIN port are all provided as part of this install
  • In the pictures above, the customer decided to replace the stock white shell with a modern 3rd party shell
