Looking into purchasing a Super SD System 3 for my newly acquired SuperGrafx. A quick browse of the 'net seems to indicate that they are currently out of stock. Do we have any idea when a new batch of them might become available?

One other question with regard to outfitting a SuperGrafx with the SSDS3. Someone posted this as a comment on a YT video and wanted to see if anyone can corroborate or lend further advice:

"Make sure you open up the console to check and shave down the supporting peg that might crack the traces to the cpu."

Thanks all.

Last time they were available was Black Friday AFAIK. That’s when I got mine anyway. I’m using mine with a Supergrafx and it’s great. As long as you don’t treat your stuff like a caveman you should be fine with leaving that peg alone.

We have more in production, but Covid-19 has really delayed everything. We should have them available in the next few weeks.

As far as shaving down the post in a SuperGrafx, that's a general recommendation and not one specific to the SSDS3.

It's a design flaw in one of the support posts in the SGX where it can press and flex the SGX board cracking it. It's a good idea to look into fixing this NEC design flaw.
