PC Engine Duo for sale
« on: August 23, 2012, 12:56:00 AM »
I know this is technically a Japanese Duo and not an American version (and maybe should be in the PCE sales section), but I noticed a few guys are looking for a way to play CDs and SCDs, and this machine will play the American as well as Japanese CDs/SCDs, so...

I'm putting up my PC Engine Duo for sale. Bought it originally from hit-japan on ebay. Unit works perfect, no sound issues, although it has not been recapped. It is also not region modded, so no American HuCards will work. Very minor scratches on unit (barely noticeable). Every once in awhile, the CD lid will pop open (never while I've been playing a CD) so I always use the lock button. This may be the nature of these units, or the catch is getting a little weak. Other than that, there are no issues with this system. Just pop in your games and play.

System is complete with original A/C adapter, A/V cable, controller, and system. It does not come with the box or instructions. Priced firmly at $120 shipped in the CONUS. I'll post a few photos later in the day

Damn... I JUST started working. If I'd been working for a month or two, I would be all over this (then sending it to one of the guys here to get it region modded and re-capped). The original PCE Duo was my first ever PCE console. I miss having one.

PM sent
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

I always have DUOs on hand for sale all of which are completely re-capped. Anyone who is interested send me a PM and I'll let you know what I've got. It changes from week to week.

I just bought a recapped region-modded Duo from Keith Courage last week, and it works great!  If you're looking to get one, talk to him.
