Turbo Grafx 16 Help
Grumbleduke:
Ditto Tik. :)
For 2 to 5 pads, you need a multitap. Biggest issue is the CD drives are not particularly reliable and can be a real pain to use (as in stuff not loading, music tracks skipping etc). If you can solder though, fixing them is not too much of a task (caps change or new laser) and if your lucky, the previous owner might have allready done it. I have a JP Duo-R with the arcade card and it runs all CD's i have come across. A Tennokoe Bank data backup card (is there a U.S version?) would be usefull if your going to buy RPG's as the units RAM can fill fairly quickly.

Cool. Thanks for the help guys!
AppleQueso:
I thought you daisy chained the TBG16 controllers? Or am I thinking of the 3DO?
KaiserWAVE:
As Grunble said you'd have to buy a multi tap to connect a second controller. The daisy chaining the controllers is the 3DO and CDi.
@ tik:
Is modding the hardware to play HuCards on a TurboGrafx -16 really necessary? I always thought that to play HuCards on a TurboGrafx-16 you just need a converter and modding the hardware is only necessary if you want to play Turbo Chips (US games) on a PC-Engine?
I thoguht it was like this
TurboGrafx 16 ---> Japanese games ---> converter needed
PC Engine ---> US Games ---> converter and modding the hardware needed

Jup you're absolutely right. It is a pretty easy mod though.
