    Default Turbo Grafx > PC Engine Adapter?

    Had a Turbo Grafx for about six months now. Got it with a Telegames adapter to allow PC Engine games to run on it. However, last week I picked up a cheap PC Engine too. It's had the RGB mod and I prefer to use it due to its size. However, is there an adapter I can use with it to play Turbo Grafx games? I tried on the off-chance of using my existing one but no joy.

    There's NO convertors for Jp systems to play US games. They don't exist. The only way to do that is to physically mod the system (requires soldering and some skills) with a region switch. Sorry for the bad news!

    as far as I know no one made the pin conversion adaptor from US hucard into JP hucard. Only the other way around since for US player JP titles hold some interest while for JP gamers there was no reason to play US hucard since most if not all of them were port of JP titles in the first place...
