    Default Turbo Grafx/Duo question

    I have intentions of purchasing a TUrbo Duo (I think) soon, but wasn't sure if this is what I needed. Let me explain. I, much like most people seeking out a Turbo Duo, have intentions of gettings Y's 1 & 2 and Y's 3. Because there are so many variations of the Turbo Grafx with the CD add on, I wasn't sure if this would be compatible for these two games. In addition, I bought Loom for Turbo Duo because it was cheap. Would this be compatible as well. I've searched wikipedia and various other sources but was never able to make a distinction between all of the CD systems. Is there one in particular I should keep my eyes peeled for? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    I own a Turbografx w/ the CD add-on & a Turboduo (US)

    My advice, be hard core get this:
    Supergrafx w/ CDrom2 & the Supergrafx adapter or...
    just pick the Super CDrom2 that just attaches to the back.






    The ultimate NEC transformer of a system!

    I dunno, I think it's cool.

    I'd suggest a PC Engine Duo R/RX. It's nice and neat and white. You'll be able to play all region CDs and Jpn HuCards.

    But let's be honest here; how many Turbochips are you likely to buy? Get a PCE so you have access to all the wonderful Japanese HuCards. The games are mostly shmups or platformers, so it's not like there's a real language barrier. You'll stil be able to play US CD games, so it's all good.
