I actually have one of these Telegames UK convertors so I thought I'd
contribute some information about them. They cost 69.99 GBP in the UK, or
75 GBP with a bundled pirate game card. The connector for the Japanese
HuCard is a PCI slot (as found in PCs) which has been modified to fit the
card. One end has been sawn off and the pins on one side of the slot have
been removed and the slot enlarged so that the card can fit inside and
make contact with the pins on the other side. It looks quite labour
intensive but does work.

this is one of those "Separated at birth" things.
