This is my original Genesis I bought in like '92(?) with one of my first paychecks from my first job at Chuck E. Cheese's (yes I'm fucking old).

I thought I sold it years ago but found out it was sitting in one of my mom's closets, so I bought a few cheap carts and hooked it up to a crt I keep around for just such occasions. It still works!

I am so goddamn happy, I just had to share and I figured you all might appreciate that.

These older consoles are simple repairs. Start with replacing the capacitors on the board. If that doesn't do it, you can find the problematic component with a multimeter
