Title: PC engine 1.0 system card
Post by: Keith Courage on October 27, 2011, 07:34:03 AM: I was just wondering if anyone had a spare 1.0 CD system card on hand they would either trade or sell me. I just picked up the Altered Beast CD rom. I have many loose PC engine Hu cards I could trade.

Maybe worth checking with them that this is indeed a 1.0 card as the pic shows a 2.1 card!

Post by: Mishran on November 03, 2011, 11:27:22 AM: I've been on the look out for a 1.0 as well actually. I play Altered Beast quite often and have to play using magic engine. Not sure what happened, but I was able to make it to level 3 with a 3.0 card once on my turbo cd setup. Once in a lifetime fluke obviously as I haven't been able to reproduce it.

why on earth does this game require a sys 1.0 card? O_o

Post by: nodtveidt on November 03, 2011, 06:14:42 PM: There is a flaw in the System 1.0 code that Altered Beast apparently exploits; the flaw was corrected in System 2.0. That's all I know. :)

Post by: pcenginesales on November 06, 2011, 11:45:13 PM: I have several of these unboxed in stock in Florida.

I can match anyone else's price so let me know if interested.
