Title: TG16 CD add-on compatibility
Post by: calier on August 18, 2003, 06:18:00 AM

Hi,
I'm sure this topic have been brought up before, but I was wondering if a TG-16 CD add-on can be used with the PC-Engine + suitcase combination?
I'm currently looking for a replacement CD player; aside from looking for the original Japanese one, I'd look for a US one as well if that's a possible option..

Thank you.

Hi Calier,

I do not believe you can use the TG-CD with the PC Engine (at least I've not heard of anyone trying it.)  Even so, I would not pay the money to find out...better to stick with PC Engine CD units for PC Engine systems.

EDIT:  It has been verified that the PC Engine CD unit IS compatible with the TG-CD unit.  It's the exact same unit, except for the color...so yes the TG-CD unit will work with the PC Engine. Aaron Nanto

The docking station and TGCD unit will, in fact, work on a PC-Engine unit?
