What repairs that you can't do on a NEC systems ???

Okay about overclocking or composite av ports ?

I have heard of ppl replacing the CD-ROM drives with 2x speed but it causes playback issues on games.

This is the first I've heard of such a thing.

They can't be fixed because there is nothing wrong with them. They can't be upgraded because there is nothing else out there that is compatible/superior. Furthermore, it would break all the games so it would be useless.

In a PC Engine? From 1989? No. The PCE CDROM2 was the first consumer CDROM product ever (I think). Naturally it runs at 1x. The first 2x game console was (I think) the 3DO.

One thing you can't get is a HuCard slot.  There's not much call for them anymore because you can make other region mods, but they're a "hard-to-find"*, no longer made part.

*obviously they come with any core unit, but the point is, if you're going to buy another unit, that also gets around any region problem.
