Ordered another set of 3 proto's from oshpark to make sure the bypass cap and larger solder pads are good to go then I can order a big bunch of them.

just a note on the TE/GT this wont fit due to the location of the battery pack
something could be done on the ribbon cable

Ah, too bad. Yeah I hadn't even looked at putting it in other consoles yet.

The important question is when can I buy one of these boards.  I wanted one like yesterday!

Has youtube video embedding stopped working? I can't see the vids I embedded above.
Here is an instal on a duo-r, it does need a bit more effort than others since the metal can around the hucard connector is in the way.

I tried to embed one myself while back and it wouldn't work. I wasn't sure what was going on with it, but I gave up and just direct linked to the video.

Delete the s.  Embedding works but not for secure links.

Glad your willing to sell to our forum as well. You mentioned it would have to be 15-20 pieces though, so setting up a group buy should be an order once you have the final revision ready and tested. Of course we would need your pricing for an order of 20 pieces. Looking forward to an update in a couple weeks then!

I've been working on it a long time, but it's finally ready for sale!
The TG16 only version of the region mod circuit is ready for sale.
I designed to make it super easy to install on the US tg16 console, does not work on any other NEC console, does not work on the PAL tg16.
It's as easy as solder down, cut the 8 pcb traces, run 3 wires to a switch, and mount the switch somewhere on the console shell.

http://www.game-tech.us/store/

There is an option to buy the kit with wire and switch or pcb only in the little drop down box.
Shipping is only set up for US and Canada, but that should be the only countries interested in this kit.
I only have pri mail for US and economy for Canada for now.
