Title: Hello! Some questions from an NEC NooB.
Post by: newwaver88 on September 22, 2006, 05:14:37 PM

Hi, all...

I have recently been bitten by the TG16 / PCE bug and have acquired both a TurboGrafx16 and PCEngine Core Grafx system. I have some general questions about the two.

Firstly... Can I play TG16 games in the PCE and vise versa? I have found too much conflicting information to know for sure. Ideally I would like to have some sort of adapter to allow me to use the PCE to play both game types.

Secondly... Can I use a TG16 AC adapter to power a PCE?

Thanks a billion!

You need a converter to play Japanese games on a US system.
CD games are region free though if you ever get the (highly recommended) CD addon.

Hey newwaver, I had the same questions very recently, since I just started down this NEC road only weeks ago. Be sure to look at this thread (http://www.pcenginefx.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=2060) with pretty mch all of my questions about what system to get, etc.

And welcome to PCenginefx.com. I hope you enjoy yourself as much as I have. :)

NEC sure as hell shook up many consumers with compatibility issues during the life of the system back then.
