	CORRECT	I found pins 1 and 3 swapped, but maybe I am reading the image backwards. If its meant to be the pics on the connecting plug - correct. If its meant to be the socket pinout - incorrect, mirrored.		APPROVED
	CORRECT	The same pinout of: http://www.gamesx.com/avpinouts/genesisav.htm Ive tested the comp. video, audio mono and ground (to make my own AV cable to TV) and it worked. I could not test other pins.		APPROVED
	CORRECT	In reference to the U-shaped DIN plug pictured in upper-left corner: the standard for this plug is DIN 41524 (the normal round one is DIN 45326, in case someone were to try to find these online)		APPROVED
	CORRECT	Sure seems to be correct, I installed an RCA output to my Genesis/MegaDrive using this information. Dont know about the others, but ground and comp. video are correct. And the connector on the machine is upside down, compared to that picture.		APPROVED
2009-07-20 00:41:31	CORRECT	As has been stated, 1 and 3 seem swapped, which probably means this is the male pinout. Still, good enough to make an A/V cable by splicing a MIDI DIN-5 with a stereo patch cable.	rev. 2	APPROVED
2012-02-09 07:29:07	INCORRECT	The connector on the Genesis I have apart is significantly different than the one pictured.	rev. 3	NOT APPROVED
