im going to mod my pc engine to play us/japan games.

the problem is, i have no idea where to mount the switch. it can really only go on the top or the front since i have a briefcase cdrom.

just wondering where anyone else mightve put the switch or what kind of switch.

i could just put a giant toggle sticking out the front but im kind of focusing on aesthetics too.

i know how to do it. i was just wondering if anyone has because im looking for a good switch to use. a slide switch is fine on a duo, but im using a pce and there doesnt seem to be much room. where he put the switch on the core grafx it wouldnt fit in the briefcase cdrom which i have.

If a slide switch is going to take up too much room, then maybe a push button switch would be the answer.

I guess the question is what will fit better, a rectangular slide switch or a round push button switch?

Just make sure its not a momentary push button switch :tickled:

yeah. its just browsing online parts catalogs for switches is a really shitty way to find what you want.:crying:

im thinking about putting it in the little dip under where the hucard goes. this way you wouldnt be able to hit it with a game in. theres just not a ton of room.
