Found these cables in my Naomi Cab

[CMYKhazi-Dan]

Hello! I found a bag of stuff I didn't expect when I opened up my Naomi Cab – anybody know what these cables labelled A and B are for? Thanks in advance!

My guess would be to power the GDROM?

Hmmmm....my guess was they were for the Naomi maple bus connection.

I thought something like that but I'm so new to all this, I am near clueless. I can't work out where they plug in. Maybe I should look at the Device Manual, but I get bored so quickly

They look like Kick Harnesses of some sort? @nem is usually good at identifying these things...

What do I do with them then? Hook it up to that Capcom flappy hatch control panel thing?

You can install those cables into Dreamcast controllers as well, then they plug into the Naomi motherboard. It’s plug and play

Wtf those are so cool!

You would think Sega would have been smarter to include an actual female adapter for the DC controller for true plug an play maintenance without the need to disassemble the controller to insert a fucking JST.

an actual female adapter for the DC controller

well thing is officially the cable connects the "female" controller port(s) located in the Capcom/Sega control panel.

its not really intended for direct use with the controller itself, but of course you can totally do that for the Naomi games supporting it.
nice that Sega kept the cable 100% the same/drop-in to a Dreamcast controller cable.

NICE! Now that explains it.

These things were a bitch to wire into my net city (through the side rails) but hey, this hobby doesn't come easy.

Blast city on the other hand, much easier.

Fishing wires through the siderails/legs is a bitch, so annoying.
