I am selling a PAL copy of the 32X CD game Supreme Warrior on eBay, and have just received the following question, which I am not entirely sure how to answer:


Hi there, tech question for you - will the game work on a u.k mega cd, through a switched megadrive (i have modded it for any region\language ect.) and an american 32x?

many thanks,

My guess would be that the game would check the region code against the MCD bios it encountered and so should be fine - but I'm not entirely sure. Anyone able to say for sure?

Well the MD has to be in PAL mode 50hz/Eng for the CD to even boot. He should be ok, but tell the guy to check this (http://www.segakore.net/articles/switch_32x.php) for how to add a 50/60Hz switch to a 32X.

You'd hope so. Really hope so. But this is the land of the internet; where a 60yr old man can be a 14yr old girl. Scary.

Anyhow, hope that helped the buyer and you flog the game.
