Question on where the Takara Pachi! TV would go:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/P...apan-import/dp/B0006FQCYM

The reason I ask is that it takes cartridges. To me, plug n play units are self contained. If it can take cartridges, it seems that would make it an actual console. Thoughts?

It seems like a console if it takes cartridges...

Are the cartridges proprietary? How many cartridges does it have? I've only seen the bundled one and a card here:

If they had tried to market it as a console i could have seen an argument for making it its own system but the gigantic PLUG IT! makes me think they were still aiming for a plug and play style.

I would definitely suggest adding the carts images in extra media and/or their titles in the trivia section. Smiley

Much thanks again for another oddity. I love these kinds of things and when i frequently bought stuff tended to seek out oddities that i figured most others didn't have.

No problem. I am moving soon so I have been packing up all my stuff, and that seemed like a good time to finally pick up on entering everything. Lots more to go through!
