I mean out of all the systems which one can you play all, or the most, different types of games on? I know of turo-grafix 16, turbo-duo, arcade-duo, and I forgoy the rest, but is there a system that you can play all of the games on? also what would be the name for the japanese one?

you wanna play EVERY game?

then you need a supergrafx, and either a cdrom2 with interface unit and rau-30 adaptor, or a supercdrom2 and an arcade card.

now in reality, what you should do is.

get a japanese duo system (with an arcade card) and a turbo grafx 16.

only thing you cant play are the supergrafx games. there are only 6

I prefer a Garett T3/T4 hybrid, but that's depending on the application... ;)

Not a turbo but this is whats on my G60 corrado that now makes 362 H.P. at the front tires.

By the way there was alot more engine work other than the Blower to get that kind of power.

I'd settle for a pair of K04 turbos in my S4

The stock ones aren't too shabby either ;)

Ethier get a Brand new Turbo Duo from Turbo Zone Direct <a href="http://www.TZD.com" target="_blank">www.TZD.com</a> or <a href="http://www.Telegames.com" target="_blank">www.Telegames.com</a> (but you will need a jap hu card converter to play jap hu cards on a turbo duo and they an't cheap) or buy a Jap Pc Engine Duo R or RX (if you can find one) but watch for yellowing before paying alot of money for one. 16-Bit and Yamatoku sell them on ebay every now and then.

My suggestion will be:

Get a Supergrafx ($60+) - you can play all Hucard games +supergrafx games

Then get a US Turbo Duo

You're set and enjoy

The only reason not to get a US system is the price of the kisado at this moment. Most people never even touch an ACD. The supergrafx is always way overpriced , and the games i can do without... being there are only 5.

My setup: US TG-16, CD, System 3.0 card, Kisado.

I can play anything. People say they have troubles with the adapters and the arcade card, which i never have. Sapphire runs fine. The US cd system is extremely well built. Just by looking at it , you can tell why it cost so much at release.

Jap Duo + TG16 ...good
TG16 with cd + super CD card + adapter ...good
US DUO with PCE(core, white, shuttle,etc) good

supergrafx with super cd unit(HTF) + tg16 ...BAD, less you want to waste wimt and money.

I say go for a Supergrafx. They can be had at a good price if you look a little, along with a CD add on.

Not sure why my image didn't work, but paste that url into your browser and you can see a deal I had scored on ebay. I sold 2 of the Supergrax's and kept one with the super CDRom which was basically free in the end.

fixed your pic.

a supergrafx with an interface unit and rau and cdrom 2 wouldnt be more than 300 at most.

sgx - 70
rau30 - 50
interface unit with cdrom2 and a pc engine (usually only found this way) - 150

so we have 270. plus you can sell the pc engine for enough to buy a turbo grafx if you want to.
