@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

System Card Questions

So, I have a TG-CD with Super System Card 3.0. I also have an Arcade Card Pro.
Since I don't have a Duo, I was wondering if anyone could answer these questions with any certainty:

What happens when you power up a Duo with:
-no chip in the slot?
-a TG-CD System Card 2.0?
-a Super System Card 3.0?
-an Arcade Card Pro (using a converter or region-modded system)?

And also, has anyone actually tried to use the Arcade Card Duo with the TG-CD? I'm assuming you get the same "not enough memory" message you'd get with versions 2 or 3, but I'd just like to know if anyone's tried.

Nice questions.

It boots up the Super System Card 3.0 screen.

I'm pretty sure it boots up the System Card 2.0 screen. I haven't tried it myself, but I'm fairly positive on that because I remember people who do this so they can check out the cool wrong system card screen for games.

Again, I think it boots up the card.

I know a few people have down this, nodtveidt in particular, and I think it works overall. On the other hand, it seems like I recall there being problems when booting it up with a converter.

I think this also has been discussed here before. I wasn't aware there was an actual message that says "not enough memory"; that's pretty cool!

I believe that the Arcade Card Duo doesn't have the system card functionality on it. I'm pretty sure that you only get a white screen on anything other than a Duo.
Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

Only certain converters. The Kisado works fine.
