The final product turned out pretty much identical to this design sketch-

Good scan, thanks! They really make the PC-FX sound like it's going to be this big 3D monster even after stating it won't have polygons like the Saturn or Playstation :D .

I always thing of the PCFX as having so much potential that didn't get tapped.  It was such a awesome looking system with a great controller, it sucks it never got any arcade ports or horizontal shooters.  Can you imagine Super Street Fighter II or even Street Fighter Alpha on it?  I bet they would have ruled.

It could've been a really killer console for 2D gaming. Hopefully independent development will happen on it soon :) .

If Mr. Plamantouras is correct, if the game wasn't based on fmv, then Hudson wasn't interested.  :(

This thread did not show up until today! I hate these forums!

Great scan, B_T. ;)
