Well I really appreciate the warm welcome guys. Thank you.


Tonight I played a good bit of Blazing Lazers, as I prefer it over Cybercore or Dragon Spirit. I think just the colors/art is better in blazing lasers.

Seems the Cybercore/dragon spirit colors are just more.... Washed out...

Considering I am also gaming on the RF converter I'm sure I am not getting a great picture. But that is currently my favorite Shmup besides of course  Gate of Thunder, but alas... I can only play that are a friends house, haha


Anyways, I want to get that cool Gauntlet style game (4-5 player) and a turbo Tap. It seems like it would be a lot of fun.





In response to a earlier comment, I know Hue cards are great, not arguing that at all. I am just simply more interested in being able to play Rondo as I do love the Castlevania series, and again... all of the great CD shmups, as well as the Hue card shmups.


I really look forward to one day getting a Duo.

Looked a bit on Ebay/Gaming stores near me.

Ebay I found a dude with a Duo with "New caps, and Region mod" that would sell it to me for 350 shipped. But I feel that is a good bit over priced, however... That was the cheapest one I could find looking at most "Conventional" places. Saw a few Duo-Rs go for less than 100, but were console only, and looked more than a little rough.

There is not a single Duo for sale in the entire state of MN that I can find. Hell its hard enough finding Hue/turbo cards. (Only one store, and I already picked through them).


So the search goes on I do believe. I don't expect the deal of the century, but getting a nice Duo with S-vid/region mod is really all I want + recapped. Ill keep looking I guess. I have been reading a good bit on here, and it seems if I stay active and actually am not a "Collectard" or Ebay dick I may get contacted by the "Chosen ones" haha. But its good to check all avenues. Thanks for any and all help as well guys!

The game is known as LE DUNGEON EXPLORER.

Even single-player, it is great.

The sprites and color palette of Blazing Lazers make it much more aesthetically pleasing than Cybercore + Dragon Spirit. 

As far as enjoyment: all of them provide great entertainment.

I went ahead and messaged Keith, and look forward to hearing good news.  :D


Also I guess I need to get a cable that will convert from a 8 DIN or a 8 Mini DIN/ a TG16 Turbo stick I have to the Duo, as I do want to keep it, and maybe change the ball out to a black on, so it looks more...... "Clean" when I hook it up to the Duo....

Welcome aboard!

You can get reasonably priced replacement cables on ebay to swap your DIN for a mini-DIN.  I think the TurboStick's use the same internal connector, but you should open it up and check before ordering.

welcome to the forum. Look into getting yourself a turbo everdrive to play any hucards, you want. This allows you to test before you buy, and also will allow you to try out PC engine hucards on your US console.

Checked the TurboStick and its soldered on. I should be able to just get a extender that goes from the TG to Duo connector though, Correct?
