I'm going to be selling off a few of my excess gaming items, starting off with my PC Engine DUO console:
There are a few flaws with this console, DUO’s are known for this. However it still works great and is a good way to get into PC Engine gaming as it can play both CD’s and the Hu-cards. Firstly the Hu-Card slot cover, whilst included, is missing a tab on one side so rather than lifting up and down it will just lift straight off. The console has been modified with an integral RGB scart lead, which gives a slightly darker image than it should. Basically skin tones look more red than they should, using a composite lead overcomes this or you can get a ‘colour booster’ cable to go between the console and the TV. The image through the RGB cable is crystal clear though, and the darker shades aren’t that bad or even noticeable at all in some games. I’ll include a composite cable too, so you can use which ever you prefer.
The accessible sound capacitors have been replaced already. The sound still isn’t as clear as it could be through the RGB or composite cable, but it is totally perfect when using the headphone socket. I can include a 3.5mm-3.5mm lead and/or 3.5mm to dual phono socket cable (white and red connections) so you can hook it up to your TV or stereo and get full quality sound from it.
Effectively this console works as new, since they didn't have scart leads as standard, it just requires using a different cable for perfect sound.
The original Japanese power supply will be included, if wanted I can also include a suitable voltage converter for the UK – (this is heavy and will probably put up the postage price though)
I’ll include the CD game Valis III and a loose card of the awesome Dragon Spirit, so you have both formats of games to try on it.

Due to the size and weight this will be when properly packaged up, I’d prefer to sell this within the UK.
£75 not including postage, Paypal gift option preferred.
I have a few other PC Engine CD games also available:
Super Darius - £10
Wonderboy III Monster Lair - £9
Pomping World - £8
