I understood that the controller port pinout of Duo-R is the same as TG-16, but the Duo-R has a mini Din8 -port, right?


Correct.

I have 5 spanking new controllers for my TG-16, but does someone sell those DIN8 -> mini DIN8 -adapters? Or am I just completely lost here?


Moeroshop claims to have 'em, but it'd be far cheaper to follow nat's handy guide and swap a cord from a PCE pad into your TurboTap.  :wink:

Ok, just checked the current situation in Ebay...

I'd suffer about $200 for a Duo-R shipped to Finland :) I understood that the controller port pinout of Duo-R is the same as TG-16, but the Duo-R has a mini Din8 -port, right?

Duo-R has a different controller port than the TG-16. There DO exist adapters but finding them may be a challenge. There also exists reverse Turbo Taps if you can find one which may be a better solution.

Ok, thanks for the tips guys :) I think I'll go for a Duo-R and keep the spanking new TG-16 also :D Those system cards (jap ones) seem to be very cheap in Moeroshop, so if you need those be sure to check them out :)
