Thanks for sharing that vid Sunsteam Paul, I'll be reviewing it more in depth for sure because ...

I just purchased my first duo-r! 

Won it off eBay auction, not modded or anything from Japan.  Comes with street fighter and this babel game.

Very anxious now.  Hope there are no surprises.

Contemplating asking seller to ship seller to ship directly to mickcris or KC to have it rgb modded/serviced (if their available) or should I ship to myself first....thoughts anyone?

I would ship straight to them. If there are any issues, they will find them before you. Maybe ask them directly what they recommend, though.

Depends on if the seller will ship to a different address.  They may find it fishy if the name and address don't match the paypal address.

It's been a long time coming for this but I finally got my PC engine duo-r.  Thanks to everyone here for there help and knowledge, and especially to Mickris for referring me to Leon in Toronto Canada to handle my RGB mod.  He did a quality, professional job.  Very highly recommended if your in Canada.

Here's a pic of my current set up. 



Games I have at the moment are:
Spriggan 2
Download
Dragon spirit
Ancient Ys book 1•2
R type Delta
Hell fire

They all bring back amazing gaming memories.  Does anyone have advice of how to play Ys?  Can you link me to a guide or do you reccomend playing with translation patch?

No one made a translation patch for ys 1&2. Just download the US version instead. You then should be able to patch in  the audio tracks from your disc if you really want the audio to be non compressed quality.

It's easier to find and download an uncompressed ISO.
