INSANE question..
« on: February 22, 2006, 04:36:15 AM »
Out of curiosity how much free room is inside of the PC-FX.  I bought one, but its going to take a few weeks for it to get here.  I heard that they made it simular to a PC, with the possibility of upgrades and what-not.

The reason I am asking, is- how hard would it be to incorperate backwards compatibility into a PC-FX,  if there was enough 'empty' area, could we insert some PC-engine hardware to mod it?

Just an idea... thats why I label'd this thread INSANE....:)

TurboSage

Sure would be cool!

There is kind of a lot of room inside the PC-FX from what I can tell through peepin' through all the expansion ports on mine. Since the PCE board is so small, it might be possible but I wouldn't know.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I'm sure we could stuff a PCE motherboard in there easily for HuCard support.  As for playing SuperCD games.....good luck :)
