Title: Getting into the system, what are the classics i shouldn't miss?
Post by: BatsBenny on July 19, 2013, 04:57:59 PM

Hi!

I'm looking to expend my knowledge on the system since i finally got a working console.

So i'm looking for games on Hu Card only since i don't have a duo. (No Ys..  :()

Just added a couple of game on my collection:

Keith Courage
Ninja Spirits
Bonk's adventure
Cyber-Core
Blazing Lazers
R-Type
China Warrior
Psychosis
Neutopia
Victory Run
André Panza Kick Boxing
Davis Cup Tennis

So far i'm loving Keith Courage and Ninja Spirits have not dig enough into the others to tell if they are great. I know Bonk's is really good. and China Warrior is kind of fun.

Any suggestions? Thanks you!

You're gonna have to get Soldier Blade sooner or later.

Get these:

Splatterhouse
Bloody Wolf
Parasol Stars (I'm a recent convert)
Cadash
Legendary Axe 1&2
Neutopia 2
Military Madness
Jackie Chan's Action Kung-Fu   
Devil's Crush

All worth playing :)

Now seriously, I recommend Sidearms, the first two bonks, Air Zonk, Bloody Wolf and the Naxat pinball games (Devil's/Alien Crush). Let's also not forget BOMBER MAN, guys!
Another suggestion is to grab a converter to be able to play fun games that were never brought to the US.

Stay away from: Ballistix, Yo' Bro!, and Night Creatures.

I will echo others' suggestions of Bloody Wolf, as well as finding a way to play import titles (either via converter, region mod, etc.) as there are a lot of really good PCE games that were never localized, namely arcade ports.

If you enjoy nice, old-skool PC D&D: Order of the Griffon

Le Gold Box worthy, really.

Somerassault, New Adventure Island, any of the Neutopia games. You really should get yourself a pc engine duo that way you can play cd games (region free) and pc engine games which there are literally hundreds to choose from. If you haven't yet, take a look at this list I compiled of PC Engine games that require little or no Japanese. http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=14497.0 Its quite amazing really...

Since many of the TG-16 games being suggested can be pricey to buy, you should get a Turbo Everdrive first and try games before you buy them if they aren't cheap.

If you like shooters, Blazing Lazers is already in your collection.  Such a great game!  It deserves some serious play time before you shelf it.

Thanks! Going to try it next!

Also thanks all for the responses! So much great suggestions.

Added to my top wanted list: Splatterhouse, Cadash, Dungeon Explorer, New adventure island
 and many more... !! :)
