Sega Master System 2 Detailed Mods Tutorial - RGB SCART | 60hz | Power LED | Controller Pause

Hey guys and girls,

This was one of my very first tutorial videos on YouTube, so be gentle. It's a little rough and shaky, but it gets the job done.

In this detailed tutorial, I take you through a step by step process on how to install each mod.

1. Install an RGB SCART Socket to the rear case and wiring it up off the CXA1145P chip

2. Install a 50/60Hz Switch and how to wire it up

3. Install a Power LED on the case

4. How to add a Controller Pause button using a logic gate. I use a 4071 OR Gate and wire up a circuit off the pause button on the board and connect it to a simple circuit inside the controller.

5. We use a HDMI Upscaler and demonstrate the video quality when using RGB SCART

6. Troubleshoot common issues
