WTB TG16 Converter (Purple one!)
« on: September 22, 2014, 02:39:33 PM »
I know I can use free methods and the ones by Chop5, but I rather have this one as it's compact and I can always leave it plugged in. I think it'll help me expand into the PC Engine hucard land finally.

What is your setup?  If youre just running a US TG16 then it might be cheaper to spend a little more and grab a Japanese Duo system.  Then youd have both regions and CD support.

I'm pretty sure this is Storino's other account.

Cheaper yes! But I rather just have this converter. And yes, my alternate account! Thanks for noticing!

What fifty cent pick ups have ya made lately at the thrifts, bud?
SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

I can't believe someone hasn't mentioned that this WTB ad is in the wrong section.  I'll cast the first stone.

Necro, care to use your magic?

Who likes the idea of this shark lurking in the waters looking for hookups?

What magic do you need?  It's the same ID he switched to on eBay and he's admitted he's storino the wonder douche already.

Those are super hard to find.  I found one from the UK on Ebay a couple of months ago.  Why not go with the DB-Elec one?  DB created a revised converter that is smaller and works better from what I heard.  I own the earlier model, which plays import games just fine.  Check it out on Ebay here:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/PC-Engine-TurboGrafx-16-Adapter-Converter-PC-Engine-Turbo-Grafx-PC-Henshin-/111465484963?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item19f3dc52a3

Plus, it's less expensive than the Purple converter...it always ends up at over $100 on Ebay.

I mainly want the purple one because it doesn't stick out of the system (on the TG16 model) and then I can just leave it in most of the time. Seems to range from $80-140 from what I see on Ebay.
