Oh I'm well aware of the region locking on Genesis. That's why I've already modded both addons for the thing. My 32x is modded to just read whatever region the Genesis is set to and mirrors that. The CD addon is "modded" with an altered Japanese BIOS which provides full compatibility with every game, supposedly, but if there are any US or European games I run into issues with, I may end up going for a three in one mod that switches the BIOS to whatever region the Genesis is set to.
Yea, my 32x also has that wider port, but it only just BARELY fits Megadrive games. Some of them are unusually shaped though and there's no guarantee they'll fit that one. I intend to go ahead and eliminate those two corner tabs entirely, top and bottom, to get around that. My dremel skills aren't accurate enough for it to look amazing when I'm done, but should suffice to prevent any major mistakes.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
