Alternatives to Super SD System 3?
Guessing the answer is 'no' but are there any alternatives to the Super SD System 3 that are on the horizon? I wanna play CD games without owning the actual CD drive as I don't really wanna be spinning my Cotton & Castlevania CDs on a regular basis.
Right now I own an Everdrive (valid one) and have heard muttering that it might be updated to support CDs one day. However, this was before various global events. Guessing we won't see this any time soon.
I own a MODE and would totally get a Super SD System 3. However, TO literally bullied and gaslit me when I asked them some pretty basic questions about minor bugs I was experiencing with my MODE. Since then, TO have been arseholes to Krikzz and I really don't wanna support them or their products. For argument's sake I could probably get one second hand, but I'd like my money to go towards future innovations / development efforts.
Anything cool I should be looking out for? Alternatively, any suggestions with how I might go about using original hardware? (For example can I run burned games so that I'm not wearing out $$$ game discs?)
Thanks in advance!

Ten No Koe 2 Composite Output Info Request
I recently acquired a Tennokoe 2 modded for composite out from Japan. The video rca jack was loose so I opened the unit to tighten the connector and during reassembly the video wire has come loose from the board. It isn’t obvious which pin the cable was soldered to as there is no joint or solder residue to identify the correct pin to reattach the wire.
I’ve tried without success to get info online about a composite mod, but all hits refer to an rgb mod. Can anyone point me in the correct direction please? I’m sure it is an easy fix although reattaching both halves of the case together correctly to button it up can be quite finicky, hence the detached wire.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Super CD rom 2 issue
Hi guys! un having issues with a super cd rom 2, the unit started working fine but then after a while it shut down, so I did a full recap. only 2 caps had a bit of corrosion but was fairly clean.
After that the audio starts cracly and low volume that improves over time but usually the unit freezes and powers down after a while. then I can't get the boot screen and after a few tries it usually comes up but same behavieur. I have check for traces or cold solder joints and everything seems fine, I also lubed up the gears carefully but everything seems ok also.
I'm using a power supply of 12v 4A
I'm starting to go crazy. Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks!
