Hi guys,
Great to see a forum dedicated to NEC related goodness!
Anyway, based on a recommendation I thought I'd give a quick intro - forum etiquette etc.
I live in Japan, and I've been collecting PCE for the past few years. It's turned into an obsession to say the least.... So much so that I have started to sell off other gear to fund it. :shock:
Currently I have:
PCE (white) x3
Core Grafx I x1
Core Grafx II x2
GT x1
Duo x1
DuoR x1
SuperGrafx x1
Shuttle x1
CDRom2 and interface unit set x2 (both with non-working CD drives damn it)
SuperCDRom2 x1
PC-FX x1
(no LT or Duo-RX..... yet)
About 240 unique HuCards, and about 150 more doubles.
About 100 SuperCD/CD/Arcade disks - only really got into buying CDs recently
About 25 PC-FX titles
Only 2x SuperGrafx titles
In addition to the above I have a bunch of boxed controllers/sticks, AV booster, Tennokoe Banks, GT comm cable, memory expansions and a bunch of other stuff. I am sure I have missed some stuff there too, but you get the picture.
Thanks to one of the members here I found this forum, but since being here I notice some familiar faces. Looking forward to talking with more like-minded PCE heads! :D

Welcome to the forum! Nice stash, post some pics! It's hard to NOT get obsessed with PCE hardware and games. It's perfectly safe and ok to sell other less worthy systems but when you start selling your blood/sperm/limbs to fund a copy of Akiyama Jin No Suugaku Mystery you might be going a little too far......
-
Welcome. Now get the rest of the SGX games, and a LaserActive setup. :)
-
Welcome!
...and I noticed that you said that you have about 150 doubles?
Maybe you'd be interested in starting up a trade/sell thread and release some of your hoarded doubles back into the wild? 8)
-
Great to see you in these parts Hollo, you should definitely post up some pics.
What SGX games did you end up grabbing?
-
Nice! As far as the systems go we're pretty much on a par, despite my lack of duos.
Don't suppose you have a broken tennokoe or an AV booster you want to get rid of? I'm just about to go shopping!
-
Thanks for the welcome guys. :)
@Frank, I had a few SGX games already, but no system until recently (as you know). I have Daimakaimura, and Battle Ace so far.
@Bardoly, I will definitely consider making a few sales in the future, but the main reason I am here is to just hang out and dribble PCE goodness.
@Soop, I have spare Tennokoe, but I don't have spare AV Boosters - they don't come up all that often. Still, I'd rather not focus on selling gear from the start - hope that's cool.
@Superdeadlite, would you believe I let a LaserActive system slip through my fingers for the equivalent of $10?! Still kicking myself in the nuts over that one...
@PunkicCyborg, if you follow the link in my signature to my blog you can see some pics of the gear in the 'What's SGUG section' and 'NEC' section. Admittedly it needs an update as I have fair chunk more since those pics were taken, but it's a good start. I think the next post I do for the blog will have to be PCE related, just to celebrate finding a forum that purely NEC!

Welcome aboard and nice treasure trove hoard. :D
-
Glad to have a new member, really dig the wall of hucards you have set up! It looks pretty amazing and I can even pick out the Wonder Momo in the middleish area :P
-

and 80 Hucard games

-
@Necro, thanks for the welcome. :)
@Xelement, thanks for the kind comments. Yeah, the wall of HuCards has grown since those pics - well not the wall, the amount of HuCards. :D I have pretty much run out of space, but it's a great way to have access to everything quick. I do have cases for most of them as well in a cabinet, and that's run out of space too. Wish places in Japan were bigger!
@Fraggore, yep, it's a serious addiction! :D

Thanks for the compliments Punkic. I don't know what was going on there, but I just changed it to an open URL and it works now. :)

Did a quick scroll down your blog. The Micomsoft Analog pad does a lot more then you think :)
There's about 12 games across the MD/MCD/32X platform, but it also works with the 5 analog pce games (needs the XHE-3 adapter), and also about 30 games on the X68000 (the original purpose for that controller), and around 10 or so on FM Towns.

Nice! I'm always looking for more info as it's damn near impossible to find out everything about the gear I pick up. Thanks SuperDeadite! I have added your info and credited you accordingly. :)
