An alternative to region-modding your PC Engine

[ishiyakazuo]

You need it for JJ & Jeff.  And Impossamole.  And Turrican.  And... yeah, there are a lot of pretty crappy US region games out there, aren't there?

There's a lot of really good ones too, but it's more fun to dump on Turdican.

Yeah, I can't think of very many standout USA-exclusive games for the unit though.  Specifically talking about HuCard, here, though.  (JJ & Jeff isn't exactly an exclusive to the region, but it's so edited, I figure it's pretty close to a different game.)

I'm curious but where your Hucard socket come from ?
Thanks.

It's a hand-assembled custom-made assembly designed to fit a HuCard.  Not an off-the-shelf part.  (Not the sort of thing I'd want to do on a regular basis, but db has a lot of experience with that -- that's the main reason we collaborated on this one!)

That's the hard part ain't it? I banged my head a few times before figuring out a workable and affordable solution.

It should be noted that db is now actually selling this thing... so it has transitioned from interweb discussion into something that can be inserted into your OBEY... for MORE OBEY.

Yes, this = truth!
