Title: Hello.. New here!
Post by: retrogamerzach on January 24, 2016, 11:03:47 AM: Hello, I just signed up today.My name is Zach, I've been gaming for over 20 years since I was born. I'm from Canada and I have some family in Japan. I used to own a PC-FX but I don't anymore. I heard about this forum / website from other places suggesting it had a good user base. I also posted in the other forum for WTB as I'm looking forward to getting to own a pc engine duo, or even turbo duo. I'd like to experience the CD based games on the console and I have been thinking about getting one for the last year or so and finally today I came here to join up , learn and meet people!

WOW! I only hear of the hate from other sites. Must be a Canadian thing. Good luck sourcing a Duo, prices have been climbing but then again, if you get tired of it (I know, blasphemy) you can always sell it and prolly come out ahead.

You got PC-FX story? Like how'd you come to acquire it? Odd that a non-PCE owner would jump on the PC-FX train.

I had one briefly some family sent me a console down. I played Chip Chan Kick and it was good!. I can't read or speak Japanese, so mainly I play the English only titles.

I was being sadistic...you should not play Ballistix. It has no redeemable qualities, and I am someone who tried to appreciate everything.

It is just...horribly mundane.

Play GOMOLA SPEED, instead. :)
