Yes. Play any region on any console with PCE-PRO.

I've wondered how this is implemented too, but from what I understand, it all becomes clear after you use it. I'm planning on getting one very soon.

Just how is the switch on those 8 pins done?

Well think about this, the reason that US and JP games can't be crossed is the 8 wires that are different (reversed). Now if you had a flash cart that is properly wired for a JP system, it wouldn't matter what ROM you put in there, it will always boot. But if you put this in a US system, it won't be properly wired to boot up UNLESS you have an adapter or a switch mod. the switch mod would be the best solution since you wouldn't have two ugly things sticking out of your TG-16.

This is the better way to wire up a country switch. The mass systems website will work, just a bit more hassle in my opinion. You just have to find a 8PDT switch, send an email posted on that site if you are in need of one.

the PCE-Pro program has an option to swap the bits function , It put in game configration window -> region tab -> US REGION ENABLE. Confused

Well The new ucon can swap the country bytes that allows you to alter the regio code in the rom BEFORE flashing it.

For example.

Galaga US will not boot on my Pc-Engine DuoRX, After Patching it it worked Perfect Smile

And there are more.

Anyway i got rid of my MD flasher so i can get 1 with 32X support Smile

Hope The GG flasher is soon finished, so i can get both.

Yeah, I suppose some USA games might need to be cracked. I got that feature into uCON because USA games wouldn't load on my Griffin. I didn't think it was necessary for any other device besides a Griffin though.. For Griffins you don't invert the data to JPN mode to play, just put the raw USA game on and crack it.

Dunno shit about griffin, but i tested a few more game, and most seems to work after patching them with ucon64.

I found me a MGD2 with PCE flashkit (and a new battery for the 8mb card)
Man those are shitty and you need to open your DUo/Duo-R/Duo-rx system to use them) Tototek cards rules (now only finding a way to put a some kind of case over the flashkit so it still fits in the duo-rx Smile

Maybe we need to make a Comp list or a US game release list and then what games work, wichneeds to be patched and wich will never work Smile

Anyway

If On with the Duo-RX RGB modding (got some trouble, and i'm out of sources, so if anybody here has some info or help on rgb modding duo-rx machines (espacially making the RGB cables), the inside modding is very easy and already done, but my cable suxs and gives to many problems.

(ok this was off-topic)
