    Default Turbo Grafx 16 power supply question?

    hey yo, just scored a free TG16 console à la carte. So I got home and tested it with a Genesis power supply and rf and it worked oh yeah! but is it ok to keep using the Gen power supply?

    Yeah, I'm using the master system one, and it hasn't had any problems. The real TG-16 power supplies are not easy to find anyways.

    As far as I know there's no problems with using a SMS or Genesis model 1 adapter. That's what I've been using since I found a loose unit recently.

    As has been said, Genesis model 1 / Master System is fine.
