+Vorticon Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Another Pyuta: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 322847594401 Interesting computer. Was it compatible with the TI PEB or carts? It has an expansion port on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digdugnate Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 i got curious about this so did some digging online- it looks like the Tomy was going to have its own expansion box? Here's a couple of links: http://www.floodgap.com/retrobits/tomy/purcell.html- if you scroll towards the bottom in 'commentary' it gives some info http://www.floodgap.com/retrobits/tomy/ti-vs-tomy.html- comparison of TI vs Tomy. Apologies if this info has been rehashed somewhere else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Vorticon Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Great info. Not much you can do with it unfortunately. Tempted to bid on it but then it'll just sit on a shelf and collect dust. I'll leave it for collectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 The Tutor has 10 American-release cartridges, plus a demonstration cartridge, but it can also use the Japanese Pyuuta cartridges. There are 26 of those. 9 of them duplicate the US release cartridges, and three of them require a cartridge game adapter connected to the back port of the Tutor to work. There is also a Japanese demonstration cartridge. I have almost an entire set of the Tutor/Pyuuta hardware and software. I am only missing the US demonstration cartridge and the BASIC-1 cartridge for the Pyuuta MkII. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digdugnate Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 here's one for a cool $2500 EUR https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tomy-Pyuta-Pyuuta-Tutor-Computer-21-Games-JAPAN-VERY-GOOD-ULTRA-RARE/232530233081?hash=item3623e1c6f9:g:gUIAAOSw8w1YARU~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Actually, I have already dumped all of them with the exception of the Japanese Demonstration cartridge, as there is something odd going on in that one, and the chip is one of those blob-on-board types, so it is harder to suss out exactly what is different there. I even converted a number of the Pyuuta cart dumps into Geneve files, so that they would run natively on it (using the method Barry Boone used to convert the US titles to the Geneve BITD). That method will work with all but the three 3D titles, though I've been told that the folks I gave my dumps to have already made the necessary changes to run those on the Tutor in MAME. All of the current dumps are available here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
