Apologies if anyyone else here was bidding on it, but I just got a Super CD and Core Grafx II boxed on eBay, and I am VERY VERY HAPPY.
So now I need to get an Arcade Card Pro, and... I think that's it? What adaptor does the Super CD take?
-
A Super CD system doesn't need an Arcade Card Pro but only the cheaper Arcade Card Duo. The Pro will work, of course, but why spend the extra dough? As for adapter... what do you mean? The Arcade Cards are Japanese not US, so you don't need a HuCard adapter.
-
Oh, I thought the Duo was only for duo systems. Hmm, I may reconsider then.
AC adaptor, I assume it's either SGX one or regular PCE?
-
Congrats on your purchase!! Now get some games!! :)
-

The SCD unit should have its own AC adapter.
My SCD AC reads:
Model: PAD-125
Output DC12V 1000mA
My SGX/SCD set up requires AC adapters for both units. When connecting the SCD to a standard PCE, you should be able to just use the SCD AC and connect the SCD's "DC output" to your PCE with the little 2" elbow cord you hopefully received.

Congrats, you will love it!!!

It's for anything with the Super CD system card built in (Duos, Super-CD add-ons, and LaserActive).

Ah yeah, Im in the UK, so I need a different one. I have an SGX one n a PCE one - which does it take? size wise?
-
sweet, make sure to not just leave it in the box and play the heck out of it

I'm unsure what you're asking. Are you asking what size tip you need? Did your SCD not come with the power supply? Since you're dealing with a bunch of Japanese systems I assume you already have a power converter, so what difference does being in the U.K. make? :-k

I won the auction today, but I don't have it. Just need to know if any other PCE system shres the same AC adator

I made a connector cable from the CD base to the SGX myself. So only a single power cable. Been running it like that for a couple of years now. No problems. AC adapter isn't the official one, but it is 12v 1A.

You will love the curiously elongated SCD gaming machine :)

very well done. now get drac x :)
It's hella expensive
I have a rule of thumb, that things buy should have a usage of £1 per hour. Easy nough for consoles, but I can't se myself playing Dracula x or Rainbow islands for 50 hours...

oh you can easily play Drac X for 50 hrs the game has so really high replayability because it's got different paths and different playable characters it's definitely worth its pricetag.
