    Hey guys!

    I just bought a Everdrive MD and a SD2SNES.
    Even though I have the original hardware, I was wondering if there is ANY clone system out there that is able to output RGB?
    Either directly or after some modification?

    Even the handheld clone systems is OK if they for some reason are the only ones able to output RGB.

    All in all, I need to save space, and I recently bought a scart to hdmi-upscaler.
    Not optimal, but it will work fine for me.

    Mega Drive and Super Famicom clones do have RGB internally. :p

    Doesn't the Megadrive support RGB natively?

    The legit one, yes. Clones have RGB internally but they don't have the outputs connected. Most MD clones have 5 PIN DIN connectors instead of the 8 pin one SEGA put on their systems.

    I think the OP is talking about a multi system modern "clone" machine like the Retron 5.

    Retron5 isn't a clone. It's a emulator.

    That's why I'm confused, OP said that they have the original systems so why not use them?

    Probably "because he can". Well I have to admit, there's some charm at having, collecting and using cloned hardware... lol
