I got my hands on some arcade games for the DUO, but I don't have and arcade card, I see that the Arcade Card Pro is more expensive them the Arcade Duo card. Does it matter which one I get, I know that they both work but does one have the advantage over the other one.

What machine are you using it on?

On a Duo console it makes no difference, either card will perform identically, so by all means grab the cheaper Duo card.

You only need a Pro for systems lacking built in RAM, such as the briefcase setup.

I'm using on the US duo with region mod.

Sorry apparently I can't read subject lines ;)  Frank is right - get the Duo card!

If it's not too much more, you might consider just paying the extra for the Pro. Sure, your current duo will take either, but if you get a TG16 or breifcase setup in the future the Pro would come in handy.

I thought the pro loaded faster than the arcade card.

I know its got added ram as it includes the system card 3.0 stuff but as for loading faster than the duo version I'm not too sure about that.
