Will the TED work on a region modded TG-16?

[Nexus7]

I hear that there might be compatibility issues if you get your TG-16 region modded.  Is this true?

I have never had issues with it.  But, there have been some reports of it.  I am going to say it depends on where the region mod is power sourced from.  One of the techs here may chime in, but I also think it's been discussed before as well.  Basically, if you get one of the new board type region mods, that most the guys here do, then you will be fine.

I was going to send it out to Game.Tech.US.  I asked him if his mod works with the TED, but he said he never tested it yet.   Here is how he does the mod.

[Bernie]

His will work.  He used the new boards that were designed by the guys here in the forums.

Awesome.   

One last question.   

Will the Japanese Super System Card 3.0 work with this mod as well?   This is really one of the main reasons why I want to get a region mod. The US version is just too damn expensive.

[Bernie]

Yes, it will. 

Also, let me know if you want my Turbo EverDrive folder setup.  Has everything you want and more in there, nicely organized.

Keith Courage's region mods are TED compatible.

I've mostly seen issues with region modded Core Grafx systems, not TG16s with the TED (which is the opposite of the Neoflash cart.)

The TED works fine on all of my systems, and they are modded to hell and back.

The only issues I have ever encountered is with the region modded white pc-engine and coregrafx not working with the everdrive.  Keeping the wires short and tapping voltage from the regulator will help when doing region mods on said systems.

Odd question, as if you have ted then you don't need a region mod (this is assuming you don't already have a region mod tg16 before buying the ted) all you do is hit the tg16/pce switch, and make sure you put the 1.0/2.0/3.0 super cdrom rom in root dir so you can use it with your cd player, no need for a cd card if you have ted.

Not really.  You would still need a region mod for all the legitimate out of region games you would want to own.  Having an everdrive doesn't remove the desire to have legitimate games in one's collection.  At least for some of us.

His question wasn't about collecting or using legitimate games. And the beauty of the ted is you can still collect games and display them on your shelf vs having to continuously use the actual game and possibly shorten its life, expose it to spills, smoke or whatnot. 

Edit** Wait just reread your statement, i assume you don't own a ted by your reply. It doesn't matter what region the rom is from, you can use it for all hucard based games and homebrew.

  I know.  His question was if there were compatibility issues between a TED and a region modded TG16.  It was quite clear and easy to understand and already answered.  I don't understand what bearing that has on my response.

I don't own a ted but I understand fully how it works.  It does not preclude the end users desire to take it out of the system and pop in a legit hu card. 

I do own a Everdrive N8 and I still regularly play legitimate nes carts.  Even though the game would work just fine on the N8.

Right and wrong.  You can use the 1.0 and 2.0 on the regular Turbo Grafx 16 machines and PC Engines, but not the 3.0 bios.  The system lacks the RAM for this one.  If being used on a Duo, then yeah, you could use whatever bios you wanted.  You also do not have to hit the pce/turbo switch for anything really.  Only time it is needed is if you switch from one region machine to the next.  The Turbo ED patches roms on the fly, from any region.

Hmm, this one maybe has to do with the version# of the ted perhaps or possibly something else?  I use the 3.0 for all my games currently and it works on my tg16 cd (see sig pic). I haven't used the other versions as no need has arose where it didn't work yet. I have heard altered beast needs 1.0 but i don't have that game to confirm this.
