Guitari Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Hi all Quick Q - I hear that PAL carts won't load on NTSC machines. But, how about NTSC carts on PAL machines? I have a PAL machine and enquiring about a cib DIG DUG but the seller doesn't know the region and there's no P sticker or additional Euro manual. He's a UK seller. If NTSC carts will load fine on PAL machines then I should be good to go - I have a flat screen that obviously takes anything! Many thanks even if that wasn't so quick.

rj1307 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 NTSC games run on PAL consoles may have graphics distortion, run at poor speed, or crash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, even with a TV that recognises NTSC? My Pal machine also has an S-video mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+slx Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I accidentally got an NTSC Joust and Galaga and remember no/wrong colors and graphics garbage at the bottom of the screen. The Joust ist still for sale . The guy who bought the Galaga said he didn't mind. It's probably partly a matter of taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
