The much-anticipated Dreamcast scart cable by Retro Gaming Cables just got pushed back, unfortunately, due to manufacturing setbacks. Here’s what RGC had to say about it: “We received a test casing of the connector shell (just ignore imperfections in the shell, as this is just a prototype), however there needs to be an adjustment made […]
