    Default Dreamcast: NTSC-J games on PAL console

    Didn't want to open a new thread, but I'm trying to play Fire Pro Wrestling D (NTSC-J Origonal copy) on my Dreamcast (PAL). When I use the Action Replay boot-disk, the SEGA screen shows up but then I get a black screen. I am using the RF cable since thats what it came with the other day, but I have ordered a RWY Cable so I'm not 100% sure if that will fix it. Any suggestions?

    Not sure if the cable will help to be honest I know alot of Jap games have issues with RGB Scart that I use admittedly not tested RWY AV hookup yet though I do have that on my VGA box but I was more interested in VGA by the time I got the box, I don't remember off hand if it was the same game but was one of the jap wrestling games that has anti scart on it

    Also own a PAL dreamcast

    There is a PAL Patcher for RGB fixes out there but thats pointless for original GD-Rom's

    Xploder is the way to go though if I had seen this earlier..... just glad you got it working anyway
