All you have to do is snip one pin on the Hu6280 and it kills the region lockout. I think only one game fails to work as a result of this.Majors wrote: I seem to recall that a Jap system cannot play US HuCarts <period>, it has some lockout code to prevent oversea sales back in the day. I may be wrong on this or there may be a mod, I haven't bothered to look it up. The US system can play imports by reversing the pin order. The Kisado literary just puts the cart in backwards.
US system w/ convertor = everything, Hu's and CDs
JP system = no US HuCards (but really, who cares? You can get the imports on the cheap)

What? I just checked wikipedia in regards to region blocks on the TG-16. It's pretty accurate.Gooseberrysoda wrote:Damn wikipedia with it's false information and mules falling on hard times.

it is possible to play US in a Jap system. I remember physically chopping the plastic ends off an adapter to make it work on my PCE GT.
