€130.00
Tax included
Turn a white PC Engine into a SuperGrafx without sacrificing a rare console. Hybrid motherboard designed by Régis Galland (Polykubos) with FPGA, fully compatible with all SuperGrafx games and demos as well as the entire PC Engine library.
Tested & Inspected
All products are tested and inspected before shipping on the corresponding hardware.
The SuperGrafx motherboard in PC-Engine form factor by Régis Galland (Polykubos) lets you convert a standard white PC Engine into a SuperGrafx while keeping the original case.
It reuses the HuC6280 CPU and the video color encoder (VCE) from a donor console, while the two video display controllers (VDCs) and the video priority controller (VPC) are implemented in an FPGA. Work RAM is upgraded to SuperGrafx levels.
Several components are also replaced with new ones: resettable fuse, diode, controller port connector, voltage regulator, and power input port.
Main features:
- Same form factor as the white PC Engine motherboard (fits the original shell with no case modifications).
- Full compatibility with both PC Engine and SuperGrafx HuCards, as well as the rest of the ecosystem (CD-ROM², IFU, expansion peripherals).
- Switch to enable/disable SuperGrafx mode.
- All official SuperGrafx games and demos run correctly.
Contents and installation:
Board sold alone. Installation requires desoldering and transferring certain parts from a donor PC Engine (CPU, VCE, oscillator, switch, filter coil, HuCard connector ribbons, and rear expansion connector). Solid soldering and desoldering skills are required.
