Supercharger + Coleco Expansion #1 ?
Supercharger + Atari 5200-2600 adaptor ?

Connecting 2 atari 2600 setups to each end of a Xonox double-ender ?

C'mon I want to see some cool pictures.
Isn't this how Ataris mate?

Been tried in rec.games.video.sega and it works. You'd have a Nomad
with a heavy baseball cap on top.

I don't know if they'd work. It was mentioned here a few times using
Supercharger and 7800 were a bad mixture, destroying the 7800 and/or
Supercharger. I'd advise caution if anyone tries this.
> Intellivision->Intellivoice->Atari 2600 Adaptor->Supercharger ?
Probably not. With all those expansion, the power supply would have
been sucked dry.
> Connecting 2 atari 2600 setups to each end of a Xonox double-ender ?
Will work since both games are actually separate PCB in one case.

*Could* work but I prefer Commodore 1350 mouse for this job. (1351 just
doesn't work as well)
My 2600 is packed up in a box and the 7800 is the only Atari System I use.
The Supercharger works great for me on the 7800.
I've never thought about trying this... I'll have to give it a shot
next time I pull out the 5200!

If they are just two individual carts attached in one case, why not
(just make sure to use a Jr. on top.) ;-)

in a 7800... except for that trip to the hospital and the house wiring
shorting out, of course. (a side joke from r.g.v.a.) ;-)

First off, the Master Gear Converter is used to play SMS games on a Game Gear,
not the Nomad.
Secondly, where did you get the information that the Power Base Converter
(which is what I assume the original poster was referring to) works with the
Sega Nomad? My extensive experimentation and discussions with people involved
in the design and construction of the Nomad at Sega have lead me to believe
this is NOT the case. The pin used on the Genesis cart port to 'drop' the
Genesis into it's resident SMS mode are not even connected!
The Power Base Converter *does* work with the Sega CDX however, you either have
to remove it from it's plastic case or use the Euro-only converter thats the
size of a regular Genesis cart.

Oops I must have misread the question. Master Gear is only for Game
Gear. I was thinking of Power Base Converter.

It was mentioned in rec.games.video.sega that it does work. It might
show up in Deja.com but it's possible that poster was faking something
or there is more than one different model of Nomads. Wouldn't be the
first as early 5200 system wouldn't work with VCS adapter while later
5200 that do, doesn't work with Pitfall game.
I sat my PBC on top of my CDX without having to do any surgery.
The fit was a bit snug, but it worked.
Check this page. It's in Japanese, but there's a table of it's
compatability. First column is if the setup fit, the second is if it
works.

This works. I was using this configuration for a while when I had my
Coleco set up. I filed the Supercharger case down for it to fit
properly, though.
When hooked to a computer, CD player, or (god forbid) the cassette
player the Supercharger expects, it's quite the Frankenatari.
<shudder> Just thinking about this makes me grateful for emulators.
