Title: Retro Gamer Magazine - Issue 53
Post by: FiftyQuid on October 22, 2012, 02:51:36 PM: Does anyone have a link to the article or a text version, or a copy they want to send me of issue 53? The article I'm interesting in reading is "We uncover one of NEC’s biggest failures: the PC-FX"

Here's what the cover looks like;

[EDIT] For anyone that is interested in reading the article, I found this link. Downloading the pdf now. Free host so the download feels like I'm on dial-up.

I can't say it was a success, but that makes me sad. :(

Looking for input on peoples favorite PCE games...

Thought I'd share since it's good to see some (if any) coverage. I pestered one of the editors to do a feature on Working Designs. Got a reply... "We'll try..."

Rondo is hard to beat, surprised no one there mentioned it yet. Gate and Lords, Ys and Xanadu... Dammit, I may have to sign up over there. :)
