Not a lot to choose from, but it was the first year.
pick the best one.
-
very very hard. still can't decide between bikkuri, kato and victory run. the kung fu was damn good as well for its time!!
-
I voted for Kato chan & Ken chan. I would've picked Bikkuriman World, but it retains the cheapness and quarter stealing bs of the arcade.
-
Victory Run FTW.
-
Kato and Ken all the way. The game set the mood for all the weird-ass PC releases yet to come.
-
Bikkuri for me. Sure it's tough and a bit cheap, but that's also it's arcade-esgue charm.
-
Bikkuri. Dude, Wonderboy trumps all.
-
I'm logging a protest vote in the form of The Kung Fu. I kinda thing all these games are sucky.
-
shanghai would be a better protest vote, since there are people who actually like the kung fu.
-
If Bikki whatever was the first wonderboy then i've played that one too.
The second, Wonderboy in Monsterland as it's known in the US.
-
The Kung Fu for sure. All of these games were pretty primitive, but at least The Kung Fu had a killer sprite engine and is probably the only "garbage storm" game to ever be released on a console.
-
Shanghai got no love, which is funny, because that would've been my pick if Wonderboy wasn't an option. I can't believe people don't like Shanghai.
-
Wow, finally a poll where J.J. & Jeff / Kato & Ken Chan is in the lead! You I know I voted for it, as usual 8) . Then again I have a feeling if the Japanese version was the same as the American version, then it would've got less votes. :evil:
-
Ug. Those choices make my head hurt. It's safe to say I would not have bought the system in 1987.
-
I voted Bikuriman World. That game is bad-Ass!

I'm sure that KC&KC/JJ&J would top some negative polls. :wink:

The thought already crossed my mind :( .

Actually I do love Shanghai. I used to play this version Windows back in the mid-90's all the time and the PCE version has some amazingly catchy tunes.

I totally agree with you Joe. These games (for the most part) leave a taste on my tongue worse than a mouth full of flaming impossamole or whatever the freak that game is.
-
haha..you ignorants!! those games were the killers back then.
the kung fu = bigger sprites than many arcade games ever showed up with until that time.
bikkuri world = 1:1 100% perfect arcade wonderboy II (except of some of the sprites).
victory run = best console racer released until that time.
kato & ken = a pure living game, great dynamic, fast, funny jokes and something completely new for its time.
shanghai = if you like that kind the game, it's fun.
-
I agree with Tatsujin. For a three month period of games during the launch of a new system in 1987, it was a pretty impressive line up all considered.
-

it's just kinda boring, like Solitaire for the PCE.
-
Yeah, I can't stress enough how awesome Wonderboy II is. Obviously you people haven't actually played it for any length of time.
-
Myst wasn't released for the system. FAIL.

bwuh?

Bwah ha hah hahahahahahh!
You guys are messed up :)
-
I voted for Victory Run. It's the only game I own of the five.
-

Kinda like JJ & Jeff. :wink:

Exactly what I was thinking! :mrgreen:
-
A small list, but I have chosen Kato Chan & Ken Chan. After all, it is supposedly a very humorous game, and it was available in the US as the "lovable" J.J. and Jeff game for the TurboGrafx-16. The other titles, including The Kung Fu which came in second, are not as remotely interesting or even of high quality.
I am wondering, too, Guyjin, if you were doing something special with the results from these "Turbo/PC Engine Game of the Year" topics? A thought like this had occurred in my mind :P.
-
I voted for Bikkuri World because it is actually pretty good.

There will be an ultimate showdown. Of ultimate destiny.

No, that's what I voted for the day I posted that I thought they were all pretty meh games. I just neglected to say what I voted for. Even in a turd sandwich, you might be able to find one good bite if you are really pressed to find it. :lol:
I do wish though that the game took up more of the screen. It seems like it could have been a LOT better.
-
I had to go for Kato and Ken :)

It's a 1:1 port of the arcade version. That's how the arcade is. It's up there with R-Type for arcade-correctness if you forget they changed the boss characters.
Even the music is 1:1.

I'm not blaming the port. I did think it was close to the arcade version though, I didn't know it was 1:1 though.
-
It really is, except for the bosses. It might be the closest port in terms of arcade accuracy out of the system's entire game library.
-
Bikurriman Worlds ends where Dragon's Curse begins- so that's my pick.

That's just like I thought. I am anticipating for this ultimate showdown, and what it'll be like 8).

The PCE version actually takes up more of the screen than the arcade version.
