I got a Sega CD Model 2 and an original copy of Lunar Silver Star. During any cutscene graphics, including the opening, there are these strange screen artifacts all over the place. During the normal top down views it is fine. Any reason why this would happen? The disc is a bit scratched, should I get it resurfaced?
Sadly its caps are failing and it will stop booting soon. Recommend returning it while you can.
Here is a shot from the opening cutscene of Eternal Blue (original disc), there do not appear to be any artifacts. It seems that it might be the disc, though I don't see why a scratched disc would produce those artifacts.

Can't I just recap it myself?

If you're comfortable working on those rice sized surface mount caps but you shouldn't pay full price for a console in imminent danger of failure.
turns out it was the disc. I rebuffed the disc and everything is all right now.
