32x won't play Genesis games but plays 32x games fine
What is the general reason for this?
Bad caps?
Old faulty power supply?
Chip failure?
I booted the console yesterday, and Genesis games were barely working. I tried about 5 games. Some loaded with garbled graphics, and some would play for a few minutes and freeze up.
Fast forward to today, none of the Genesis games will boot. I get a black screen. On rare occasions I will get a beat of sound and a black screen.
Oddly enough, the only 32x game I have, Doom, runs just fine.

Anyone know what happened to this?
I saw that someone was making custom pcbs for 32x games and was wondering if they changed them so that they can fit in 32x cart shells.
I wanted to make my own copy of that 32x backrooms game using the shell but the boards that I found were poorly made.
If not then is there any place where I can get a high quality pcb that can fit in a 32x cart shell?

Not the best print
I tried printing this with PETG and it was horrible due to all the stringiness, so I switched to PLA and it's also stringy. I had to make changes due to fitting, like the circuit board sat too high for the Sega CD. Also, support is the ban of my 3D printing experience. The PETG print would rip off some of the shell with the support. You can see that the letting in the front isn't well preserved either, but that maybe because I'm using a 0.6mm nozzle? This might be fine assuming everything still lines up. This took around 16 hours to print, and that's nothing compared to the estimated time for the top which is over 2 days.
