This listing is for a used PC Engine console (NTSC-J, Japan region) – HuCARD-compatible.Please note: Controller, power adapter, AV cables, box, and manual are not included. Console shows some signs of cosmetic wear: light scratches, minor discoloration, and general surface marks. The transparent HuCARD slot cover has been removed. The rear backup cover is missing. What We Did Before This Ships Every console we sell is opened up and serviced by hand. We don't just confirm it powers on — we look inside. This unit was fully disassembled and cleaned internally; dust was removed from all components. All boards and electrical contacts were cleaned with ethanol and a fast-drying, residue-free electronics cleaner to remove oxidation and residue. Moving mechanical parts were lubricated with a light application of silicone grease for smooth, quiet operation. (We do not apply grease to electrical contacts — they are cleaned only.) Electrolytic capacitors are replaced only when there is visible corrosion or leakage — nothing more, nothing less. For console families known for capacitor failure, a full recap is performed as standard. If a console cannot be properly restored, we do not sell it. After reassembly, the unit is tested with an actual game: video, sound, and controller input are all confirmed. Before we seal the box, we power the console on one more time and confirm it is still working. Every console includes 30 days of support after it reaches you. A note on power: this console uses Japan's 100V standard. Buyers in North America (120V) are advised to use a step-down transformer or a multi-voltage power supply; buyers in Europe (230V) will require a step-down transformer to use an original 100V adapter safely. A note on region: This is a Japanese PC Engine (or CoreGrafx / PC Engine GT). Japanese PC Engine HuCards are not compatible with North American TurboGrafx-16 HuCards — NEC reversed the data bit order between regions (D0 on the PC Engine corresponds to D7 on the TurboGrafx-16), creating functional incompatibility. A region-mod or adapter is required to play TG-16 HuCards on this unit. If anything here isn't covered, just ask — questions are always welcome.
