- I previously added a language switch to an older Genesis, but I had
- to return it because of an overheating problem--after about
- half an hour the games would start locking up. This occured about a
- month after I made the switch--most likely due to the board design. My old
- Sonic Genesis had a solid rectangular heat sink, long jumper wires,
- and the full-size 68000 cpu.
- I was surprised when I opened up the newer Sonic Genesis. The board
- has been redesigned somewhat. It now has a fin-type heat sink, no jumper
- wires, fewer chips, and a mini-square 68000 cpu. I couldn't find any
- jumpers on the board: i.e. jp1-4. Does anybody know of a way to add a
- language switch to the latest Genesis design?
