Post by: wilsonw111 on January 15, 2011, 06:30:31 AM
:mrgreen: I was running around old shops in HK lately and found something interesting. I'm not sure if this is rare or not; but it's PCE related and was my first time seeing it. it suppose to be some CD for " The 16th Year Anniversary of PC Engine".
So I paid around USD 12 for it, and it looks pretty cool; below are the some pics to show ya all. :mrgreen:

Wow, I thought everyone knew about this, I've had it for several years, got it off ebay, I don't recall paying much for it, it's pretty decent from what I recall, it's got a bunch of remade PCE tunes. I also have a Legend of Xanadu 1 doujin cd, & another cd that has various PC Engine songs remade along with SFC, MC, Arcade, PS1, etc.
Lessee, I'm flippin thru the cd right now, the songs on Super Takahashi are:
1-CD Warning track 2-not sure, it sounds like something that would be in Star Parodia, but, I don't recognize it 3-it's either the 2 minute or 5 minute caravan song used in various games, like Super Star Soldier 4-some of this sounds familiar, but can't quite place it, but it's gotta be a shmup 5-another one that sounds familiar but can't quite place it 6-the 1st overworld theme from Tengai Makyou 2 7-the 1st level of Super Star Soldier 8-sounds familiar but can't quite place it 9-final level of Gunhed/Blazing Lazer 10-the main theme of Double Dungeons(with an Ys'ish sound) 11-the tower level of Valis 3, this one is my favorite on the cd, lot's of guitar n' stuff 12-another familiar one that I can't place 13-from something in Tengai Makyou 2, but, I haven't played the game very far, something very subtle, slow & beautiful

If it has a cd warning track.... doesn't that mean there must be some "he system data" content on there too? If its just an audio cd then why have a warning? :-k

I think the warning was probably for nostalgia purposes. After a while the warning tracks got to be a thing you always listened to to see what sort of wacky skits they would perform, or whatever. Since track 2 is audio, its definetly not for the HE System.
Anyway, I've never seen this thing before. I feel kind of left out...

Is there a web site that lists the official soundtracks for the PCE?
I can find some by digging around http://vgmdb.net (http://vgmdb.net/) howerver a search of "pc engine" does not show all!
Thanks

Neato - thanks for sharing. As for the Huey: yeah, it's probably a mock-up, as the label doesn't look right (kinda like a sticker).

"Artichoke" sounds promising.

AFAIK, they're exclusive, but my knowledge on this only goes so far. Maybe if I lived in Japan, I'd be more likely to see these doujin cd's first hand, otherwise, I'm at the mercy of ebay......& the internet in general. :P

You can never go wrong with artichokes, squash and/or kumquats, as far as I am concerned.
Where are the VGM gurus? Help me! Should I covet this CD? I see GUNHED on there...

I have the album in mp3 format. A bin+iso would always be nice though. ;)

And here's all the songs on youtube, which just solidified my need to buy this!
Yes, I thought that was a great track, too. Sounds like the closing credits to a period drama set in feudal Japan aimed at adolescents. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)
