Pirate card. Worthless. A dime a dozen, and you could find better.

Hehe. I can picture it now. Instead of "Man, thats old. Just goto HK and get it" we got now "Man, thats old. Just goto JP and get it" :-)

Well I assume stuff like this would be old for anyone like Des or CC who lives in Asia or is a part of that community. They in general get a lot of stuff sooner than in North America. Like for instance, right now I think a lot of people here would consider something like a "Treamcast" rare now...

Oh that Taiwanese video.

Those games don't even play real Mahjong. They play some basterdized 2 player japanese varient.

Just be carefull. A lot Chinese edition cartoons are dubbed in Chinese, and a large portion are only subtitled in Chinese. Otherwise its usually Japanese with Chinese subtitles.

They have HK Silvers which have multi-games on one disk. They usually do stuff like remove the video for all the games except for the "Main" one they want to sell the disk as, and the other games usually are smaller and use stuff for music like MIDI's or some kind of non CDDA thing.

Thats correct. There are no know carts which can beat the protection. There are some carts which help aided swapping, but those have been long phased out in favor of mods.

PACHUKA's modded saturn of doom! Well, the big problem with the battery mod is that your VCD card wouldn't fit it. Granted, not many people have one, outside the few who imported from Japan/China, but its still something to think about.

Chinese stores like broadcast books probaby have them. Something like 6 VCDs for $10 or less. You can get them as a pack or single videos. But pretty much any Chinese cartoon store or rental store would have them. Many have full series for rental (ie walls and walls of series if you don't mind...

Those are older mod boards which have long since retired in the Asian circut. Well, I suppose pretty much all SS mod board are retired now. Just looking at leftover junk stock people want to get rid of.

As far as I know there were two kinds of Saturn CD-Rs. Developers can only use that one (As pictured) on their own dev systems with the use of a Sega Key Disk. As you can suspect there is nothing diffrent about those disks compared to a regular CD-R. The second type of CD-R has a ring directly...

Well there is Photo CD software that can author disks (Works like any DVD professional grade authoring tool), but as you can expect it went for a few 100 dollars (to companys) and isn't sold anymore after Kodak started doing its own Photo CD developing. After that time, Kodak only distributed...
