White PC engine and US Turbo CD base
« on: November 08, 2011, 12:14:33 PM »
The RF on my white pc engine is crapping out.(was already crappy from the start) While bored the other night I began to compare the pc-engine to the turbo grafx and noticed they the back parts are identical. I think even the pins are the same from what I can tell. I have a cd base and decided to slide the PC engine in there to see if they had the same fit. It slid all the way back but not completely because the pc engine has 2 small little pegs.  Now if I brok these 2 small plastic pegs, and it slid all the way in, would the Turbo CD base work as an av out for the PC engine?

It should because the pin out is suppose to be identical. I say go for it.

Go for a real FrankenGrafx-16.  Grey PAL system, Black Base, and White Player.

The ports are identical electronically, yes.
