Title: Duo pads on a TC?
Post by: Arkhan on October 01, 2008, 04:34:06 AM

Can you mod the Turbo Duo pad connector to work with on a regular TG16 for six button games?

or is there any 6 button alt.?

If the 6 button pads use the same internal connector as the standard pads (which I believe they do), then you can easily swap the cable out of the 6 button pad for one from a TG-16 pad.  Alternatively, you could hunt down some DIN sockets and build yourself an adapter.
