WTB- TurboGrafx extension cable

Mathius · 10/21/2011, 04:10 PM

I am in need of an extension cable so me and the GF can get some 2 player Dungeon Explorer happenin'. I got a TurboTap lined up, and I already have an extension cable for myself, but I need one more for her. Thanks!

I thought the trick was to use the extension from your Turbob System to the Turbob Tap. That way you only need 1 extension rather than 5.

I think I might have an extra extension cable. I'll look for it tomorrow and get back to you.

Some games will not work correctly with an extension between the Tap and the Turbob. Googlerin the comptents and you shall see.

Yeah, if you try using an extension between the tap and system, it usually flips out when playing multiplayer games (ie continous pausing)

Hey Mathius, there is a store in my area that sells T-16 extension cords for $7 or $8 a piece (I can't remember exactly). If you are willing to reimburse the cost plus shipping, I'd be more than happy to pick one up for you.

Now that I think about it, I was remembering an ad for the Duo to Turbob adapter that allowed you to play the Turbob Tap and 5 Turbob controllers on your Duo system. Good info to know though.

The ones I saw on that page wouldn't work on the 'ol 'GOTTA BE HUGE' Turbo controller port. Thanks for teh link though! I may use it in the future.
