yes

I just ordered one as well.  I can't wait!

I recently got mine. It is good quality product. The only thing I didn't like is that it takes some effort to insert it on the TG16. Other than that it is pretty straight forward. Win 7 x64 detected and installed the proper drivers (you may need to set the COM port to a lower number though), and the Flash software is pretty simple. US Magical Chase just worked like a charm.

I've been unable to get any japanese game to work. I use the rom converter to remove the header, then flash my game checking the "swap bit" option. However I only get a white screen. The japanese games I've tried (with no luck) so far are Detana Twinbee, Coryoon and the japanese version of Splatterhouse.

i have had an issue where the rom converter messed up the rom, so it didnt work on us or JP mode hardware.
then bitflip on the loader software fixed it

I have a question, would it be possible to flash a Supergrafx game onto this card then just stick it into a Supergrafx system?

Yes.  There is no difference between regular HuCARDS and Super HuCARDs.

I just tried flashing a PCE game without using the "check to swap data bits" option and it worked.

This has been a source of confusion, but I believe the User Manual is now correct.  If your SYSTEM is Japanese, then you need to check the 'flip bits' box (for all games).  If your SYSTEM is USA, then you should not check the box (for any games).
 
I will be interested to see if the Supergrafx games work.  I don't know of anyone that's tried it yet.

I've had no issues playing pc engine games on my turbografx-16. This flash card works great; thanks. By the way, when pulling it out of my tg-16, do you recommend grabbing a hold of the cart a certain way to minimize the risk of damage to the cart?

Mine arrived in the mail today.  Thanks for the lightning fast turnaround.  Was it supposed to include a Driver CD?  The instructions I think imply that, but I was able to find the drivers and software on your website.  I was able to get a US rom working on my US duo, but not a PCE rom.  It might have been the rom though.  I'm going to tinker with it some more this evening.  Thanks again!

It may be that you used the "swap bits" option. That's not required on an american system, regardless of game region. And of course don't forget to remove those headers.

No, unless you specifically ask for it. That's what the author told me on an email. Smart move to protect the environment.

I agree, fast shipping and great communication.

It is great to see great quality products like these being made in the US and at great price.

Thanks GOY !

Thanks for the feedback.  I'm glad that most of you are up & running successfully with the cards.

Paisa49, I usually pull the card out by grabbing the USB connector from the top & bottom.
