I picked up a massive lot of Sega stuff this weekend, including a Genesis1/CD2/32x and games for all three, but it is missing the pass-through cable that connects the 32x to the Genesis. Can anyone spare one in trade or for money, or know of a reputable source where I can buy one? Thanks!
 
Damn. Also, is there any way to get it to work with the CD-X? (or maybe I'll be lucky somehow and the CD-X plays 32x games natively?)

The CDX predates the 32x, it doesn't play 32x games natively (would be awesome if it did).

The CDX and the 32x can however be plugged into each other. Sega didn't officially recommend it because the weight of the 32x tips over the whole setup.

As far as the pass-through cable. I have one but it belongs to my 32x and came with it (brand new at KB toys for 19.99!). I was about to recommend Sega-parts.com until someone else said that it's a no-go.
 
[quote name='velvet396']this is a cable I need too - any ideas yet. perhaps it could be "built"?[/quote]

The cables can indeed be built. It's way beyond anything I can do but check out this: http://www.geocities.com/sonic412781/32xcable.pdf

You can come across these "built" cables on eBay every once in a while. I just got a 32x and need the cables too.

Holy crap that is alot of effort for such a crappy system. Buying the 32x cable by itself is pretty expensive on ebay. If you really want one I suggest looking for a buy it now auction for the 32x system. They often include the cables and I have seen complete systems (with games) sell for less than a cable alone auction.

I have yet to see a single person selling a complete system locally. They always lose that damn cable!
