Title: Confused about Arcade Pro Hu Card
Post by: drumsickness on 08/08/2008, 02:38 PM
OK. So I'm looking to get my TG16-CD region modded. After that I'll be able to use the Arcade Pro Card to play Arcade CD Rom2 games. Would still need another card to be able to Play Super CD-Rom2 Games(Like the super system 3.0 card??) Doesn't The arcade Pro card have the same RAM boost as the super system 3.0 card?. I've read through the compatability guide a few times and I just want to make sure I know what I'm doing. Sorry for the Noobiness of the question. Thanks  :-k

Fookin' noobcakes!  :lol:

Nope, you won't need anything else.  The Arcade cards have the same bios as the Super CD; they only add extra memory.  With the Pro card you'll be able to play any game, excepting Altered Beast (it has compatibility issues with everything but the 1.0 card) and the Games Express discs (they include their own system cards).

No problemo - we were all neophytes at some point.  With two posts today, I guess we won't see you again for another eight months or so.  :lol:

Don't get too comfortable, the dollar has been going up now pretty consistently. Petroleum prices have been dropping as a result of it.

I was joking. But it's true that during the meanwhile, I could afford outbidding american buyers on ebay, which was not the case until a few years ago.
