Sorry, but I have been on the lookout for these cables myself. I can't find any in the US, and in Japan, they are extremely scarce. I'm thinking about just making my own via 2 VGA adapter cables. Only the VGA adapter uses all the pins of the AV port. It should be faily simple, but there must be a cross over wire that I'm not sure about. You can read more about the DC serial port in the hardware section of this link.

: : There are a couple games that allow (head to head) play via a link/battle cable. The cables are almost non-existant, but can be hacked together from vaious other DC cables (like the old dc->neogeo cable, or just a couple of vga adapter cables).
: : 2 US games that I know have head-2-head play modes (but are hidden in the game) are VOOT and F355 Challenge. There are a couple more japanese games that also have h2h play.

: cable? If I can't find one, where can I find instructions on building one? What Japanese games
: support this feature? Send the info pronto! I can
