Pal games are slower cause of the 50Hz you don't notice it really tho sonic is still fast paced.Reaperman@home wrote:that's "super lame". At least it only checks region on boot, so you can switch it back to viewable. sega could have been real jerks and had it check every couple minutes or something.NiN^_^NiN wrote: You are missing something
In later years the 50Hz and 60Hz where used as a region check basiclly so for import games you need to have this switch
at least the switch (from the ntsc point of view) is only good for importing lame euro games--most involving moving small groups of vikings through various challenges. It's much handier for people with pal consoles trying to get us/jap games flying. Still, it seems so easy, that it'd be a shame not to do the full mod. now where is my genesis box...
another oddity, according to that site you linked to pal games actually run slower than 60hz games? did sega actually screw pal users that badly? sonic must have been boring. maybe that's why the nec systems were so much more popular in pal areas.
It just cause the output is diff the games run slower for that output but to you and me nothing is really different
