Title: Game distribution by type - Any ideas?
Post by: Trenton_net on April 20, 2014, 02:34:30 PM

Hey Gang,

In the PC-Engine library, how many games out of the 738 are RPGs or Adventure games that require Japanese in order to play?

The reason I ask is because I am interested in getting some kind of media storage solution, but I want the size to be sufficient enough as my collection grows. Since I won't collect Japanese RPG/Adventure games, how many does that leave to get?

I was thinking of something similar but for the Everdrive. Breaking it down into genres.

There are around 100 RPG'ish games. That's including stuff like Ys which have experience point based leveling, but not including adventure games ranging from Dungeon Explorers to Shape Shifter to Neutopias.

I'd plan for 150 games, with a lot of double-disc cases and a few extra thick single-disc cases.


EDIT: just saw that you are actually looking to avoid the best PCE games. :P
