Title: WTB - Laseractive PACs wanted
Post by: RyuHayabusa on February 04, 2015, 10:16:44 AM: Hey, just wondering if anyone has an extra Sega or NEC PAC they'd be willing to part with for a decent price. Ebay prices have gotten ridiculous, even for the Sega S-10 PAC. No box or instructions needed. Thanks!

Not meaning to derail your thread but I was wondering how much on average these NEC PAC's fetch nowadays?
I can get one fully re-capped but the guy is asking upwards of $500.
Not sure if I'm willing to drop that kind of money one one of those things.

the TG16 PAC-N10 is way more than a pce PAC-N1 so make sure you are getting the right one. PAC-N1 you can probably get for $250-300 and PAC-N10 for $450 or maybe more

So what exactly is region locked? Just the card games?
I can get past that with a region converter, yes?

Yup, you're basically just paying for US branding.

Post by: Bloufo on February 05, 2015, 07:28:22 AM: Ok then so "$250-300" sounds a whole lot better (for the PAC-N1 ).
Now to try and find one at around that price.

I thought it was based on the region of the actual Laseractive?

That is true, but a lot of times you can still change the language in the options as well. I know for a fact Triad Stone is like that.

Post by: RyuHayabusa on February 05, 2015, 09:24:53 AM: I'm fine with the US PACs. I don't need all four of them. If anyone has one to spare, let me know.

Post by: RyuHayabusa on March 17, 2015, 02:35:51 AM: Ok, got a Sega S-10 PAC that works great. Now I need an N-1 PAC for my NEC stuff. Anyone have one they'd like to sell? Don't need the controller, just the PAC.
