Title: Is this a real Sapphire game?
Post by: Lilgrafx on January 17, 2012, 01:19:24 PM: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ginga-Fukei-Densetsu-Sapphire-TurboGrafx-16-1995-Pc-engine-PCE-look-/250975862234?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item3a6f53bdda#ht_500wt_1287

If so I will hate myself forever for not picking this up.

Post by: BlueBMW on January 17, 2012, 01:36:36 PM: And the coloring is consistent with the reprint / misprint discs.

Post by: Black Tiger on January 17, 2012, 02:26:52 PM: All of the second prints are fake. Only the fourth prints are legit. This was confirmed by anime4ever when he visited Hudson's offices in Japan in 2014.

Its an arcade cdrom game anyways... You'd need an arcade system card to play it. I knew I should have found time to mod that duo to play PCE hucards..... Maybe someday we can still get that done :D

For sure that be great, I'm not too familiar with the pc-engine Library, but I'm sure with as many games as it has it's amazing.

Post by: SignOfZeta on January 17, 2012, 04:23:09 PM: THERE. IS. NO. 2ND. PRINT.

NO. REPRINT.

ONLY "REAL" AND "FAKE".

I wish to clear up a misconception...

Post by: incrediblehark on January 18, 2012, 10:05:26 AM: I'm happy with my reprint of the second edition release and special lighter colored post-release of the reprinted second edition print.

Post by: Bernie on January 18, 2012, 11:08:32 AM: Sent ya a PM Lilgrafx. I have one of these left over from the ones BlueBMW sent out, if you want it. Just get back with me. Keep in mind, you will need an Arcade Card to play it, but you have that modded Duo, so all ya need is the Arcade Card Duo, which is normally cheaper. :)
