    Hi

    I been looking at the switchless mod and purchased one from badad84

    what I wanted to know is

    is the way to mod the consoles on an NTSC console the same as PAL console

    or is there something different to do

    and will it then play pal carts/discs

    The mod is the same on NTSC and PAL units, although obviously the initial state of the jumpers will be different.

    If you just modify the console then it will be able to play PAL carts, but the Mega CD will still be locked to
    NTSC - there is a replacement region-free BIOS that you can install to remove this restriction.
