@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Super CDRom 2 screen yellowing

Bit of a strange problem but the RGB connector on my Super CDRom is really sensitive. If I plug it in as normal the screen displays but with a yellow tint covering everything. Usually if I wiggle the connector around slightly it reverts to how it should be but so much as the slightest knock then the yellow returns  :-k Can anything be done?

I don't think it's down to the cable as I've plugged that straight into the PCE and dont have any problem when turning that on. It's only the Super  :|

Sounds like a poor internal connection. Anytime anyone says they "wiggle the _ to get it to work" it's a pretty good bet that the internal portion of that part needs some attention. Could be an AV port, a controller port, power port, etc. As systems age this is a pretty common issue.

If you know for a fact that the RGB worked fine at one time then investigating the area visually and reflowing fresh solder over all the component leads should work wonders  :D
