Title: Manual Scan Requests
Post by: 16bit on August 04, 2011, 10:42:52 AM: One of the best aspects about PC-Engine games is the colorful artwork that adorns their manuals. The character drawings, monster art, maps, comic panels...they just add another level to the game for me.

On that note, I'm looking for a few manual scans of games I have yet to own. A big thank you to Ikermel of http://www.videogameden.com/index.htm for the manuals he has at his site....good stuff!

Here's the list of manuals I'd still like to check out:

Anearth Fantasy Stories
Aldynes
Basted
Eternal City
Dragon Knight III
Horror Story
Kiaidan 00
L-Dis
Lady Sword
Legend of Xanadu II
Liquid Kids
Lost Sunheart
Madou Monogatari
Mystic Formula
Popful Mail
Sonson II
Steam Hearts
Spriggan II
Tatsujin

I'm really just looking for character/monster art, maps, and general artwork...so if any of these lack this kind of art, that would be helpful to know as well.

Also...I have over 100 PCE games as well, so if anyone else is looking for a manual scan, feel free to post here and if I have it I'll scan and post it for you.

Arigatō :)

I'm currently extremely busy at work, but I can try to upload the following manual scans to my site:

Aldynes
Eternal City
Horror Story
Kiaidan 00
L-Dis *
Liquid Kids *
Mystic Formula
Sonson II
Steam Hearts
Tatsujin *

I believe some of them are already available on the site (the ones with a star) - but I'll check that they are Hi-Res (some of the early manual scans I published were not as 'hi-res' as the latest ones).
I'm not sure when I'll be able to do that though - I've been working week ends and don't have much free time :(

I do not have this game or I would scan it for you. However here is the play guide for the Wii Virtual Console version that may help you along.

Thanks! But I was hoping to find an explanation for some of the bonus stages, enemy descriptions, tips and stage names. Stuff usually found in manuals. If its no trouble, please PM me the scans when you can. Thank you!
