Product Description
SEGA Genesis 2 (US) / Megadrive 2 (EU) - Total Case Replacement Project
Neptune Cartridge Cover For Modular Build - Revision 1

    
Create your very own version of SEGA's Unreleased Console, the SEGA Neptune, or Genesis 32X System as it was known in the US.
     
Originally conceived as a Genesis and 32X system combined into one sleek looking package, it unfortunately never saw the light of day.  So my goal is to bring this amazing system back to life by providing a replacement shell that can be swapped with a standard US or EU Genesis/Megadrive 2*.
   
This cartridge slot cover is specifically designed ONLY for modders who wish to include an actual 32X system inside their neptune case.  This is using a method known as a "MODULAR BUILD" and due to the raised position of the Cartridge slot the traditional 2 part flap design cannot be used.

*** DISCLAIMER ***
  • This is a passion project designed by hobbyists for hobbyists.  All dimensions have been scaled by me using an EU model Megadrive 2 and as such details and quality will depend greatly on the material chosen.
  • This is designed to be a shell replacement for a Genesis/Megadrive 2 and as such will continue to function as a Genesis/Megadrive 2 only.
  • Although this is designed to replicate the Neptune as can best be obtained by images and video of the prototype, the placement of ports, buttons, size and thickness of the console is still dictated by the Genesis 2’s integrated components and therefore a complete imitation of the system cannot be achieved.
  • To integrate a working 32X system within this replacement shell would require the expertise of others with all the associated risks involved.
  • The current revision of this Neptune shell is designed to be a replacement for the "push down" on/off button system, not the "left/right" switch action button that is used on the Japanese version.
  • Please DO NOT throw away your old Genesis/Megadrive 2 shell.  Any examples of these amazing old systems should be preserved and enjoyed hence my goal to create a console that is as easy to modify as it is to revert back to its original form without any destructive methods.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated to further improve the shell design for future revisions.

Happy Modding!
