Super CD-Rom System v3.0 Card

[Blaze]

Hello i am newish to the fourms.

Anyway, does anyone know where i could find a US Version of it (The Super CD-rom card)? Because sadly almost all the major TG-CD games require it... Yeah i actually have the original TurboGrafx system.

Thank you.

P.s Good job on the translations guys, keep up the good work

Is this allowed in this forum? Because most translations sites don't want people to ask or link ROM files of games and system cards. BIOS images ISOs etc.

Unfortunately, the US version of the SCD System Card is rather pricey and doesn't show up on ebay too frequently (in my experience, anyway).

Outside of ebay, there aren't too many places where you'll find TG-16 / PCE fans who are willing to trade / sell the item you're looking for. It wouldn't hurt to ask at the forums at pcengine-fx.com or magicengine.com ... but be sure to ask the "regulars" if the person you're doing business with is trustworthy.

For the price the HuCard fetches on ebay, you might consider investing in a DUO or a PCE + SCD add-on. I have the SCD add-on and it works great.  I've always wanted to get the "suitcase" PCE + CD combo, but since it would have been necessary to get the Japanese SCD System Card (which is cheaper and far more common than its US counterpart), I decided to keep things simple.

Plus, if you get a Japanese system, you can play Japanese HuCards

Oh I see! I misread his post....He was talking about a true system 3 card. Well if it is not on ebay the I guess that it will be impossible to find.*Edit* http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PC-Engine-Super-System-Card-Ver-3-0-CD-ROM2-Rare_W0QQitemZ104753595160QQihZ020QQcategoryZ123438QQcmdZViewItem

This auction was for the Japanese HuCard, which won't help the original poster, since he needs the harder-to-find, more expensive US HuCard .

I went another route on this issue. i bought a second tgx base unit.  All they did to the tgx was swap the data lines. so all i did was pull out my handy dandy soldiering iron and went to work.  of course at the time getting a base unit only cost $11. Now they are more expensive then buying a converter card.  Point being is if you have a spare unit and a little bit of electronics, you can do the necessary conversion.
