Alright, I just need a Box :D
-
Double post, sorry
-
Edit: If there is a better alternative let me know too. I know there is no difference between the US and the JP Duo but the huge price.
Also, I know this would be really expensive, but I guess modding the US Turbo Duo would drop its collectors condition? So if I'd buy a US Duo and then a JP and get the mods would that be the most "collector" way, but also most expensive way, Lol.
Thanks again guys!
I think you might be overthinking it with your "collector" way stuff.
Buy a DUO R or RX modded. I got mine from Doujindance (ebay seller ID), modded for RGB and region. Works good (not everyone is a fan of his work, but I have had no issues). I think it was around $300 after shipping, maybe $320 (can't recall). Get an Avenue pad 6 for your controller. Play some games! Good recipe for fun.
Also, from what I understand, Caps are the difference between the Turboduo and DUO R and RX. Apparently the caps are prone to fail on the US Duo. I've not witnessed it, but that is what I have heard. Can anyone back me up on this one?

Thanks, Yea looked up Doujindance, but he has nothing for sale, so I'm out of luck there.

You can find their posts in the repair / modding thread. I'm sure there is a member directory on the website, if ur not using crapatalk. They also sell on eBay as TurboGrafxfan and Superkon.

Thanks for the plug:)
I have an ifu briefcase I'm correctly working on. Hope to have it done by the weekend. I also have a duo-r, duo-rx and a regular pce duo coming my way. Maybe awhile before I get to them though.

Well I found for a decent price, that wasn't over priced.
But I need a box, so if anyone is willing to sell me their box that would be awesome, if not I'll keep searching.
Thanks guys!

I thought the boxes had the serial numbers on them?
-
That they do, and if you're collectarded enough to demand a box, you should get a matched set. :twisted:

I don't care if it matches really, I just want a box for it.

why do you "need" a box? or do you just "want" one?
