 The system comes with it's own unique pad, as well.

this sounds very interesting.  What kind of software does it play besided 
HuCards?  is it like an atari computer type of game counsole?  or is like a 
pc or amiga or somthing?  with pc-engine hardware  already installed in it, 
it would seem like the perfect tool to program and test software on.  is 
anything like this possible?  Either way, thisthing sounds and looks really 
cool.  One last thing, when and where(japan only?) was it produced?

thanx and sorry about all the questions, Shaun
