At first I thought he was playing the SFC with an Ave 6 pad, but then I noticed the PCE.  Looks like Super Darius 2?

The book on top of the tv is blocking a portion of the screen, which would drive me nuts.

Geez that's insane. Konami needed to make more PCE games.  :-({|=

How far was Xexex completed? I wonder if the porting job was good, too.

Tats got it! Looks like this pic was a prank from day one. Xexex never had a console port till psp and the cd in the pic is just the music cd.

I spotted the OST CD in no time, since I just held one in my pranks the other day :)

also I never heard, that PCE Xexex made it anywhere near to a proto status, since the development team gave up on it quit quickly due to some difficulties.

so all remains are one or two pix from the mags bitd.

Yeah.  Scholarly citations or it didn't happen.

OMG! A gray prototype PCE mouse is on the table on the left. I've never seen one of those. Crazy.

Looks like there's one of the new-fangled vertical keyboards beside the PCE mouse. NEC probably figured severe carpal tunnel should be enjoyed by all, not just computer geeks.

I can spot what's wrong!  It's not me playing it!
