The Hucard wallets eh?  Nice.

There's already a "what did you buy today" thread elsewhere (which I refuse to check due to envy) but I guess it's not specifically PCE

got some new stuff today... Turbo Express in very good and working condition, no dead pixels, sound ok, very clean, box ok. and some games.... oh and some pads, taps :)

everything together for around 200$, which I think is fair.

I love the GT/Turbo Express, thats why I had to get the Turbo Express, looks fine next to the boxed GT :)

Alien Crush rocks.....  Flash Hiders too, did someone actually play this seriously? Well I did when it came out and I thought it was very good.... of course no competition for SF2 but anyway a really good and unexpected fighter.

Not much to share after yesterday's trip to the mail room, but the 6' controller extensions I had ordered came in so I am pretty pleased about that. Now I can enjoy pce rpg goodness while laying in bed without having to burn up batteries or get up...much. Still haven't figured out how to do the tennokoe fire drill to swap banks without getting up yet.

Only $910 shipped from Hong Kong to the U.S. for all 40 CIC games.  (not too cheap, but not too bad I think, considering what I got.)

Note:  Berabo Man and Body Conquest were loosies to fill my empty cases with manuals that I had for the two.

Note: 5-6 of the cheapie CD games came game, manual, & back insert only, so that's why 3 of them are currently in standard black cases rather than white.  (I was able to scrounge up the other 2 or 3.)

lol, what are you babbleling about the colors there? :lol:

but nice hauly there :)

I was always impressed with the colors of the PC Engine.  They were so eye catching.  Back in the day I had the genesis and my buddy had a tg16 and I was so impressed with the colors and I had to get one.  I ended up getting a used turbo express and a bunch of games.  That thing owned me for years and my genesis collected dust until the Saturn and ps1.  It wasn't until a few years ago I finally got back into the genesis.  Now that I got a turbo and PCE it'll be a while before I pick something else up.


Back then systems were so different and so unique in their displays.  I thought that the tg16 was very clever in graphical display and really stood out.


Some pics....

Bardoly, Makai Prince Dorabocchan is sick, play it asap and hit me up if you need hints!

One thing that took me a while to realise, is that the tomatoes you collect during the level rain down on the boss to cause damage.  So they're worth seeking out.

I really like those Ultra Box disks. I have four out of six (still need 2 and 6). The programming on them is really buggy, but it's an awesome look into what was happening on the PCE at the time. There's cool stuff on them, like primitive digital scans of fan artwork.

partly agree to this, but he should contact the guy making/selling it. and ask for at least some compensation... even if it's $1 / pop. at lease some people here could have a good night's sleep over this issue :)

Title: Re: What PC-Engine Stuff did you get today?
Post by: vestcoat on May 28, 2013, 12:03:43 PM
Is there a link to the back story to this that I missed somewhere?

Anime4ever, AKA Fudoh, is a forum lurker that took an early version of Bonknuts freely-available ISO of the first Megaman PCE port, burned it on high-quality CD-Rs, made some packaging, and is selling it for €49. Not only is his gouging price insane, but he's passing it off as a legitimate PCE release. He neglects to inform his customers that they're paying fifty euro for a CD-R, he doesn't tell them that it's a free homebrew hack, he doesn't tell them that it's not the latest version, and he doesn't credit Bonknuts for doing all of the work.

There are three things you should consider before giving any money to anime4ever:

1) He's a gouger. He originally tried to sell SFZ for $160. $100 or whatever he's charging now is still insane considering these things are CD-Rs.

2) He's a liar. He came around here in 2005 saying he bought a box of Sapphires in Tokyo, feigned ignorance regarding their origin, and put up that "small site" (anime4ever.de) just to sell those few copies. Link (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=737.msg4215#msg4215).  His deception started a years-long debate about all of these new Sapphires floating around. Endless idiots drank the Cool-Aid and argued long and hard that their precious Sapphires that they paid too much money for must surely be from a 2nd printing, not bootlegs. Anime4ever eventually dropped the pretense when he pressed SFZ, expanded his site, and sold a couple spindles of his misprint Sapphires bootlegs to BlueBMW. 

3) He's a thief. That Rockman hack was made by Bonknuts. Link (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=10564.msg212188#msg212188).  Fudoh stole it and it's not even the latest version. Obviously, Megaman isn't Bonknuts' IP either, but artists (and anyone with integrity) will usually operate under Creative Commons principles when it comes to things like this - not for profit, attribution, and they usually ask permission.

Yeah the ad said it just showed a blank screen. I remember seeing a similar screen when my huey's had dirty contacts or the huey slot needed cleaning and sure enough that's what it was. Then I opened up the cdrom drive and the gear was stuck. Greases it up and popped in Macross and it fired right on up. There's some yellowing but not too bad. So pumped to get this. Been wanting one for a long time.

From that bag, it looks like you were shopping at Pink Gorilla/Godzilla Sadler ;)

That place is pretty sweet!

Yep! I went to the one in University district I think? I think I actually liked Another Castle better, but it was cool to see PC Engine games in the wild in the US. :) Kinda makes me appreciate Doc's more, to be honest they have more PCE than I saw in Washington and they are only a 30 min drive away! :D

Prices seem to be all over the map for these stores though. Most stores are quick to tell you they give fair market value and it's based on "lots of sources" but god help you if you ask what the sources are. Seriously, not to be a dick, I think Game Force in Boulder and Doc's in Aurora (both of them, particularly if you talk to the right guys) were better. The guys at the stores in CO actually love PCE, the guys in WA seamed confused by it.

Purchased these PC Engine titles tonight:

1. Break In
2. Gradius

Funny thing is...I owned these titles previously!  But since I sold ALL my collection years ago...I'm trying to RE-COLLECT my favorite titles :)

I absolutely agree.  Have you beaten all three of them yet?

Not sure if you were talking to me or not, so I apologize if you meant esteban :P

I've beat L-Dis and have just started playing Ys IV recently. I was originally hoping to play the translation but none of my computers have a write speed lower than 12x :C so I'm stuck with the extremely tedious Youtube method to follow the story. Hoping to save Magicoal for when I find another person to play with (good luck with that @ myself)

They're cool to own, but as you're probably well aware of, they do develop sound issues (bad caps?).
That's the case with the one to the left of the pic. It arrived in pretty bad shape. I cleaned it up as best I could (you can still see the discoloration on the case). And since I know eff all with regard to the technical/repair side of things, I'm forced to draw the sound out of the CoreGrafx.

My SuperGrafx is patiently awaiting a Super CD Rom mate.


Speaking of,

(btw, are we still doing the miniaturized thing?  :P )

Yeah, I'm loving the system so far. There's something really compelling about it...the way the graphics pop off the screen, the pick-up-and-play nature of the games etc. The PC Engine is majestic.

Schibibinman3 bought from HitJapan for about 30-40USD cannot remember. Won a domestic ebay action for AdvanceVG for 10 bucks w/ free ship. Mr Heli loose from Ebay under 10USD, incredible game. and after searching for a long time for another WORKING PCE pad, picked this Avenue 3 for 20USD including ship from a store somewhere in Europe.

Mr. Heli is an awesome pickup for $10! I still haven't been able to beat the lvl 2 Boss (the giant ball that nearly insta-kills you upon touch, but up until then it's pure heaven. And I'm sure once I figure that guy out theere will be plenty of more joy.  It's a great game.

Good luck with that.
Been looking for months and I have contacted quite a few that used to do them with no luck.
Avoid Raven Games  [-X unless you want to pay big bucks and they are bodgers of the highest order.
You could try getting a NEC RGB/AV BOX which outputs an amplified RGB scart (nice) and composite+audio L/R

Xak, I buy games, both good and bad, based on forum discussions (I am intrigued by the game and want to play it for myself). That is not the issue, really (for me, anyway).

The issue, really, is how sincere you are. There is no point to trying to "prove" your sincerity, though, since doubters are always gonna doubt.

Skeptics are always gonna be skeptical.

Validus is always gonna be Validus.

Et cetera, et cetera.

Personally, I have given you the benefit of doubt, but it is in your own best interest to avoid drama, make sincere posts, and proceed.

I just played the pce and genesis ports of altered beast and damn, the pce port seems as if it has 2 more megs of memory, one example is the first enemies you will see, the zombies, the pce port has 3 frames for walking and the genesis has 2 frames, but the pce has what I call full body animation, the bottom half and the top half(torso and arms are animated) where is the genesis the top half is un animated and of course the pce also has an death animation of about 5 frames, the uses the same single frame that all enemies use in the pce port....I think between the pce cd, hucard and genesis ports the pce cd is my favorite.

The first 2 levels are a cake walk.  Level 3 still gives me trouble at the end. Level 4 is when it really gets challenging.  Great game.  I never have had the patience to make it to the end (maybe it should be nominated for the weekly gameplay gig) but I used to have a roommate that would play it every night for a long while and got darn close.  Those were good times. :)

I wanted it ever since I was 7 years old. Barely knew about retro games, except for the Mario Advance games and a Bomberman PC collection.

It's like the greatest game ever (shorter than 93, but more diverse and fun gameplay). A true HuCard swan song.

Valis was the last game made, which is why it's Super CD.  They probably skipped porting it because it was "too old", starting with Valis II which was new at the time; apparently the others sold well enough to warrant porting the original when they didn't have a Valis V to port.

Cool!  I will definitely check those out.  Nothing like flipping through the real thing though.  My friend and I were just lamenting our long gone EGMs and Game Pro magazines.  I also had a couple of Video and Computer Games, I think the name was?  And some older Commodore 64 Mags like Run.  Turbo Play/Force was the only ones I was sensible enough to keep.  I still think I might be missing one or two issues at the end though.  I remember clearly waiting for some issues to arrive that never showed up, I was mad since my subscription definitely wasn't up.  Looking back, I think it was probably the start of NEC and Turbo Play having some financial troubles.  I gotta look up a list though to be sure.  I think the last one I got might of had Dungeon Explorer II on the front?  And I think it was called Duo World at that point...

I also traded out my US CIB N.Spirit for a JP loose at the store...since I now have 3 PCE's (well, and one Express) and makes more sense to get Japan versions now. No power or controller, but I have a white pad already. It does have the lid (http://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=0B6XVC48SOj4KQ3o5RjRYa3VJNUk), no worries. I was able to find a wall wart at Goodwill that has the correct volts/amps and ghetto fabricate a working power supply after drilling a tip to be a bit wider. I happen to have my buddys US CD-ROM and ACD Pro in my house after finishing some drive repairs, so I tested it right with Sapphire.

Guess I'll be on the hunt for a white CD-ROM now...the chase never ends...

I would also like to know this, as I am also unsure if this was a limited release or not. I have looked around the net but have found nothing so far on this release.

The game inside the tin has the same release ID of the retail  non-tin boxed version HCD 3046

There was a gent here who pried the top off a tennokoe and replaced the battery, that might be all you need to do to bring it back to life.  The batteries in all of them are going to die eventually anyway.

Hi all! Got some stuff this past week.

(http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i271/dapietri/box_zps69f71e0e.jpg)

Currently my new copy of Dracula X is living inside of it.

(http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i271/dapietri/system_zps6a7c0054.jpg)

System's in incredible condition. Box, manuals, foam, even the foam / plastic baggies for everything. Crazier still, nobody in 20 years took the protective plastic off of the controller.

(http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i271/dapietri/IMAG0098_zps99797f33.jpg)

I've never seen a lot of the manuals / cards that apparently came with this system. I should scan them...

I'll definitely crank it. Never thought this game would make me pick up such a habit though. Guess it's a night of firsts!

Make sure to properly position your speakers and butt for Roland Sound Space.

I also got a bunch of Godzilla Blu Rays! I'm slowly (as released) replacing my dvds!

I'm still just learning the controls so I have a ways to go before unlocking anything! :oops:

I think it controls surprisingly well for only using one attack button; you'll be smashing beasties down in no time.  The only move I can't pull off for shit is Godzilla's growl, but I don't think it does anything but look cool anyway.

Then went and bought a bunch of hucards, R-Type, Fantasy Zone, Peachboy, Jackie Chan & New Zealand Story.

Can't wait to get playing with this (after an RGB mod, of course) :mrgreen:

It was about the same as the going ebay rate( I payed $42), but a couple other games were less than ebay. I mainly saved on shipping by buying them from the same location.

NOT A SINGLE PERSON COMMENTED ON THE FACT THAT YOU WANTED Blackhole Assault. The only enjoyment from that game was listening to the story (all the cinemas are narrated in English). It's not a good story, but who cares? I am such a dumf&ck, I actually bought Sega CD version of Blackhole Assault to see if it was as bad.

It was.

Just finished checking out the games I received, download is pretty awesome! Anyway, I also wanted to warn anyone who may think of purchasing from Japangamestock.

The games I received, while in "acceptable" quality, are far from perfect, and nowhere was that noted when I purchase them. Each game shows at least some signs of ware,  and would likely be considered B graded in the best case and probably C in the worst case.

I personally would not buy from them again as there is no way to know exactly what the quality be based on the info their site offers. If I have a chance tis weekend I'll post some pics of the games.

Awesome.

Dragon Spirit is great game if you dig old-skool shoot-em-ups. The only shame is that at some points, the silly sound effects (surface attack)  will override a channel of music, thereby ruining full appreciation of tunes (since you'll spend a lot of time attacking the surface). Some folks complain about speed of dragon (too slow), but that is the formula in countless classic shoot-em-ups (ie Gradius, R-Type, etc)...the speed-up power-up is actually VALUABLE.

Valis is a very basic, easy platformer that I still love. Great music, my first CD-ROM GAME. HA!

Thanks for letting me know. 150 Euro (200$) would be the absolute maximum I would pay for it. Since it's nearly impossible to play as a non Japanese speaker I would love to get one in the 100 - 130 Euro (140 - 180 $) ballpark :) but that will be tough to pull off nowadays. The tragic thing is - around 2000 I bought the game for 150 Deutsche Mark (that was our currency before the damn Euro) - that's 75 Euro :( - two years later I sold it (which was really dumb).
I got to have it alone for the fact that it was the last PCE game + the artstyle is really great :).

And there she is, the absolute final CD pressed for the PC Engine in 1999: Dead of the Brain I&II... David Shadoff was actually working on a fan translation project for that once, but it stalled and has long since been forgotten I guess.

1999

And oh! The french version has been over for almost 3 years and is still waiting to be implemented. Sometimes, some people wonder why there are not more translations of PCE games. When you spend 5 years on and off translating a game, and the translation is not implemented, it doesn't help you try and translate any more games.

Ah, right you are, shubibiman, I was thinking of '97 cause of Motteke Tamago, that free pack-in game released in a PC Engine magazine. 1999 is even harder to believe that one last PC Engine CD title managed to roll out. I think PC-FX was already dying at that point.

@esteban, I believe David had some understanding with his team, that it'd get translated to French first or something. Looks like shubi knows something about it and might be able to elaborate.

I had never used a proxy service before this purchase, so I was somewhat hesitant to order through them, but I had read that other forum members here had used GOODY-JAPAN (http://www.goody-japan.com/) before successfully multiple times, so I figured that I'd give it a shot.  I actually paid for the shipping on last Friday morning, and the well-packaged box arrived at my place today.  That seems rather fast, but I was excited to sign for it!   8)

Definitely not as good as I had hoped, but overall, I believe that I beat the current online prices by a little.  (I'm sure that I could have gotten them a bit cheaper if I could have gotten them from a member here, or in person, but all but one (Travel Eple) of the games is rather hard to come by and they just rarely ever show up here for sale.  :(

Shipping included, I paid about the following:
~$230 for 1941
~$205 each for Madou Monogatari and Terra Cresta II
~$135 each for Chiki Chiki Boys and The TV Show
~$80 for Go! Go! Birdie Chance
~$65 for Seiya Monogatari (Anearth Fantasy Stories) Taikenban Mook (CD + Book)
~$10 for Travel Eple ($5 for the game and $5 for the shipping)

My wallet is rather flat now, but my game library is happy.   :|

Congrats for the haul too! I dunno about the other games, but I think you could have done better with 1941 if you held out. On Amazon Japan multiple sellers are offering the game cheaper. (as low as ¥9,650, which is about 100 bucks)

That's usually the way it goes.
My understanding is that the only way to buy through Amazon Japan is through a proxy service, and since this was my first time to use a proxy service, I wanted to have as few wrinkles as possible.  I actually only wanted to get Madou Monogatari and the Anearth Fantasy Stories Mook at first, because they were at the very top of my want list, but when I was browsing through Surugaya's stock, I saw the other 6 which I really had been wanting as well for quite a while, and I went ahead and pulled the trigger.

I'm still rather newbish at buying things internationally outside of eBay and somewhat afraid of being ripped off, so since altogether I think  :pray:  that I got a decent if average deal, I'll keep my chin up.   :-"

Number 500!  In my PC Engine library on PCE Daisakusen! (http://www.pcedaisakusen.net/2/30/list-users.htm)  (Number 640 total including TG-16 releases.)

And ironically enough, it's one of the harder-to-acquire titles.   8)

Thanks to jperryss!

Also numbers 501(641) and 502(642).

That brings my Obey libray up to 642/884.  Although, I do realize that PCE Daisakusen! has not been updated with the recent indie releases yet.  :(

Had a quick 3-day stop in Kansai, and had a peek inside some retro shops in Denden Town & Namba and grabbed a few I've been meaning to get over the years.  I guess super potato moved near Namba station?  I noticed that there were shutters down in their denden town location, but by complete fluke, I ran across a super potato shop by Namba station.

I got TWO copies of LoX I because... the super potato in Namba forgot to put the CD in the game!  This is actually the case with Cosmic Fantasy 4-1 as well.  I later looked at the receipt and noticed they didn't charge me for those games either...  Unfortunately I didn't have time to go back to Namba and getting the discs before I had to leave - and I could only find a replacement copy for LoX1 at another shop before leaving. 

Anyway, the inventory of PCE goods in retro shops definitely doesn't seem to be as extensive as it used to be back when I was living there (2004-2005) - too bad.

Asuka is quite a blast to play, the characters are varied and their moves are a riot to pull off. One is a chemist student and she sends her frog after you. Another one throws volleyballs at you, and yet another one has that twirlie acrobatic ribbon thing you see at the olympics.

Awesome game! Doesn't get enough attention. I think a lot of shooter fans look over it because of the lack of score but it's really awesome and worth figuring out and finishing. The ending is a really nice full vocal track. I uploaded it on YT but try and beat it to hear it for yourself first

I'm pretty sure it does exist: clicky (http://www.rpgfan.com/soundtracks/gotzendiener/index.html).  I haven't seen one for sale, but I've not looked all that hard for it either; I'm probably gonna need to troll yahoo auctions.

I got to the end of the 2nd stage last night and really enjoyed what I played. Some very cool concepts going on in the game and nice intro to set the stage. Yeah score doesn't matter so much to me personally. O:)

It's the Emerald Dragon Taikenban/demo disk.  Since I just got it yesterday, I haven't had a chance to load it up yet, but here's a brief explanation/description of this disk (http://archive.today/soXkP) that I found on the internet.

Actually, in the Dengeki PC Engine 3-Mook series, as far as I know it is Emerald Dragon, Bakuretsu Hunter (aka. Sorcerer Hunters), and Anearth Fantasy Stories aka Seiya Monogatari (containing the exclusive shoot-'em-up "Cychorider") pictured below.

I do know that there are a few more PC Engine games which came in/with a magazine - Motteke Tamago for one, but I do not have a definitive list yet.  The below quote has some information that I've gleaned from the internet, but I haven't been able to confirm this personally.

No, the game didn't actually get released as a 2-disc set.
Yes, the game was released on all those platforms.

Please see this website for differences:
http://emedra.the2d.com/

On the PC Engine platform, there were two releases:
Once, as the double-CD case with manual and art book (CDROM was the
white-and-green one), and once as a "MOOK" - a magazine/book with a CDROM
included, fromDengeki MOOK.  In Emerald Dragon's case, it was a "capture
guide" book, and I believe the version of the game was a full version
(rather than just a playable demo).

There were 3 MOOKs in the Dengeki series:
1: Emerald Dragon
2: Bakuretsu Hunter
3: Seiya Monogatari (An Earth Fantasy Stories)

There were also other MOOKs released by other publishers, such as:

Tengai Makyo Kabuki Den (this may be a playable demo)
3x3 Eyes (I just got this, so I don't know what the game CDROM is - but the
book is artwork rather than a player's guide)
Record of Lodoss War 1
Record of Lodoss War 2
Kaze no Densetsu Xanadu
Develo Assembler (for programming)
Develo BASIC (for programming)


If anyone can confirm the above mooks, that would be great, and any information concerning other mooks would be greatly appreciated as well.

As far as I know, 3X3 Eyes doesn't come with a game. The 2 Develo Magazines do come with SCD's but these are not games. If you count the Develo CD's as games, then you should count all the CD-Rom Capsules.

Here is a quick view of most of the magazines that do come with a SCD (except for the Super PC Engine fan, thats comes with an audio CD) :

That's pretty cool, I didn't know there was some sort of a connection with these 3 games. The guy in your quote from the TurboList BTW is David Shadoff who has and knows everything when it comes to TG-16/PC Engine (he also helped me with the Ys IV project!). He visits here once in a while (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=4604) - You can PM him to confirm whatever, he'll usually help with that sort of thing if time permits.

The only connection between those games is they're part of the Dengeki CD-Rom and Mook series. Apart from that, there's no link at all.

I got my Express & Duo-R back from turbokon :dance:

The Express's new screen is awesome, much clearer. I hooked it up to the TV, plugged in a controller and showed the girlfriend who thought it was very cool.

The Duo-R's component mod looks great on my 27" Toshiba crt and I love the custom cord. Like the discretely placed region switch, the overall look of the console is unchanged while it now packs a punch!!!

I couldn't be more happy! Great work, communication, skillz, blah, blah, blah :P

Title: Re: What PC-Engine Stuff did you get today?
Post by: elderbroom on July 27, 2014, 09:42:31 AM
Not today .. but recently.  Saw a SuperGrafx console posted in a local classified. Contacted seller to find out it was a guy that works for same company, at same office as myself. (see the associated Google+ images that it puts on my Gmail account was good for something finally).  When I go meet the guy he has a whole box of PCE stuff, and is of the opinion that he just wanted it gone, had no use for it, and since I had expressed I was a retro gamer and would most certainly play it .. he gave me a great price. I even insisted on paying him alittle more, as I kept expressing the value of the items. But he was content just to see it go to a local collector, and more importantly gamer.

So picked up: loose SuperGrafx with single controller, AV and AC adapter.  boxed PC Engine GT (box is rather rough), AC adapter for PCE GT, and then a handful of games including R Type I & II, Battle Ace, Download, Galaga '88, Gunhed, Image Fight, Kyukyoku Tiger, PC Genjin 2, Power League III, and Super Star Solder.  Also a 6 button PCE controller, and a PCE turbo tap.

This was my first purchase of PCE items, having had been a TG-16 collector owner near launch, and collector over the years.  Very much enjoying this, and now keeping my eyes peeled for a PC Engine Duo R or RX as I want to get Gate of Thunder and others.

So very very pleased with this purchase that started as an inquiry against a SGX.  However the PCE GT will need to be re-capped (so heading off to Turbokon next week)

PM'd Necro. It was an insanely low price, despite me trying to advise seller of it's actual value. He was happy to see it go local, and to someone who was going to enjoy and play the hell out of it. I see the guy around the office, and still tell him that I owe him acouple pints.

Why I'll be damned, I actually have an on-topic addition to this. I just bought 5 games from bbbbbiiiiigggg Al for $25 GBP which took $43 USD to buy... The US dollar has been pounded and pounded by the Great British Pound on down to about half its value, so it's not really desirable to do business with someone in the UK/GB these days I'm afraid... Anyhow, here's the order:

Tengai Makyo II - $2GBP
Cosmic Fantasy I -  $3GBP
Cosmic Fantasy III -  $3GBP
Dragon Slayer: The Legend of Heroes II - $4GBP
Ys III: Wanderers from Ys (SPINE) (JPN) - $4GBP

Plus $9GBP shipping, so $25GBP total = $43 USD... 43 / 5 = 8.6, so $8.6 bucks per game with shipping... Think this works out to an OK deal if you had to get them separately per eBay listing ?? I think I saved a few bucks relative to eBay if I had to get them all like that...

I really wanted a shooter in the deal somewhere, Gradius II is what I asked for, but somebody had already bought it... The thing about these RPGs is they're kinda meant as sitting investments should fan translations ever be finished for them... David Shadoff had started Cosmic Fantasy 1, but it was shelved for the time being last I heard. Ys III JPN I wanted because I wanted the Japanese artwork, so owning another piece of Ys history - I have the US version already. So yeah, none of these are something I will play any time in the future... :( It's like a "let's hold on to these in case something happens way way way down the road and I can play them in English..." deal. I dunno if even I accept all my justifications for this deal, a mix of wanting to own history and unlikely possibilities, but there you go. :/

Picked myself up a very clean, cib PC Engine Duo R from a local (Toronto) buyer.  Very happy that I was able to avoid shipping costs, drive over and demo the unit before buying. This is a completely stock console, no mods, and hopefully will get lots of gaming before I'd need have it recapped. The guy was obviously a gamer/collector as everything he had was displayed nicely, and stored carefully. Ended up getting the cib console, and 6 games (a couple pretty damn good ones) for $250 CDN. Nice as Castlevania would have been one of the first ones I would have looked for anyway.

From a prior post .. finally photos of my SuperGrafx, PC Engine GT and game lot.  This was bought ~2.5 months ago.  But just got around to cleaning, and test everything. So now it's a permanent part of my Gaming setup.

* Summarizing earlier post. Got this inquiring about a SGX on local classified. Turns out guy works at my office and when he found out I was a gamer, insisted on me taking the whole box at what I was willing to pay for the SGX alone. Despite trying to convince him it was worth more .. just just wanted to offload it. And was happy seeing it goto someone who would play the hell out it.

The PCE GT is having some video issues .. so will be boxing it up, and sending off to Turbokon for a recapping. But this was an unbelievable deal .. and just shit luck (which I deserve as I've never found anything at a yard/garage sale, flea market)

This is actually the bundle that had two copies of R-Type I .. so the the duplicate is actually being raffle off right here today in another thread.  Going to pick a winner tonight.

I ordered the PCE Duo-RX controller, and Avenue 6 controller from him.  Hoping they show up any day now. Given I'm in Canada it takes alittle longer especially with today being a Civic holiday.  Thought his prices were very reasonable. I can sense doing business with him again.

Yeah, because it seems like leaving an exposed PCB around probably isn't the ideal as far as protecting your investment in it. What Stone Age Gamer did is beautiful, gold-plated screws and all, but I would never pay that bastard's markup - he doubled the price on his premium versions (for adding coating, case, and manual, etc.)!

I'd be down. I'm planning on getting one after I move away to school. Still deciding what color to get, nullity's orange one looks awesome. It would look cool in a TE but weird in a Duo R.

Also, stupid question, do you really have to glue it on?

Nullity, that looks really nice. Kinda makes me wish I had let Shapeways dye my slim cover.

I was tempted to go with orange, or green, since it was only 50 cents extra, but since I had never ordered from Shapeways before, I thought I'd go with white, then I could dye it later if I decide to.

Fulci- thanks, yeah, it did come out nice. I was afraid it would be some pastel orange but it is fairly vibrant.

Tucci- you don't have to glue it, but you might want to depending on what version of ever drive you have. It fits the v1.2 well enough that it was hard to pry off with my fingernails, whereas it is easily removed on v.1 cards (but not so easily that it'll fall off the back of your turbo express).

Which version card did we order in the group buy..?

Not sure if Nully even ordered lol

Pretty sure we got v1.2. Nullity said he got v1.1 about 2 years ago. And he now has both, there is little visible difference between the two.

My order from big Al (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=14453.msg361879#msg361879) in the UK arrived today, was left on the doorstep, made it OK thankfully!

Tengai Makyo II - $2GBP
Cosmic Fantasy I -  $3GBP
Cosmic Fantasy III -  $3GBP
Dragon Slayer: The Legend of Heroes II - $4GBP
Ys III: Wanderers from Ys (SPINE) (JPN) - $4GBP

Plus $9GBP shipping, so $25GBP total = $43 USD... 43 / 5 = 8.6, so $8.6 bucks per game with shipping...

It cost him really 15.5 GBP to send it, but I see why, the boxed used was big. Anyway, glad it made it to the US safely.

Well, I might finally have something to use mine with when my Turbo Everdrive arrives and I put my Duo back together! I wasted $40 on mine  in the 90's and never wound up getting an Arcade Card. I even grabbed Strider for $15 used thinking I'd get the ACD eventually when it got cheaper, never did, and so never got any of the fighting games it was meant to work with.

Nah, and now I can't even remember for sure how I came under the impression that it didn't work with it. Maybe I just assumed it was made around the time by and for the Arcade CD titles or something. I was sore that I spent $40 and never got to use it once, and felt I should've stuck with the original. It does feel better to me though, somewhat.

Hm, I just fired up the Ninja Gaiden ROM in the MagicEngine emulator. Somehow I must've just missed it all these years. Looks like it's a straight port of the NES version with enhancements, so maybe something else to mess with when I get my TE. I beat all the NES versions (1-3), so maybe I just didn't think I should bother with it in my serious emulation playing days 10 years back or so.

@Nully, nah, wasn't you, goes back years further that I thought this.

Hi everyone,

Look what I bought the other day!  You know, the highly coveted Castlevania Dracula X for PC Engine Super CD.  I got it off Ebay for $118.  I'm excited as can be.  I don't have it yet, but looking forward to playing it night and day until the game is beaten.  lol. 

I heard about this game for like 20 years.  Now, finally I get to play it.

Today I finally received my CIB ROM ROM AMP-30! Wo-Hooooo!  :dance:

But I still have to wait to try it out until I received a step-down converter (230V->110V), so that I can test it.

Cant wait to hear it. Especially cool is the Karaoke option by just plugging a microphone to it, though I have to admit I am not karaoke-affiliated in anyway...  :oops:

Can't wait to receive my doujindance Duo-R along with Spriggan, Rondo of Blood and Nexzr (first release). I basically purchased the system for these games (plus GunHed, the Soldier series and Ys Book I & II, which I'll get later on when my finances are straightened out - I also purchased Eliminate Down and Gleylancer this summer - among other things - so I'm a bit tapped out :wink:).

P.S. Alright... two more "impulse" purchases a few minutes ago: Final Soldier and Gunhed (I love both games by the way, having already played them quite a bit on the Wii Virtual Console over the years). "Impulse" is between quotation marks because I swore to myself earlier today (no joke) that I wouldn't be purchasing any more games online until 2015... "FAIL", as they say. Still, 5 down and 6 more to go before I have reached my ideal Turbo/PC Engine collection. (Or so I like to believe.)

Yeah, I'm aware "Lords" is US and its photo would belong in the other sub forum, but I hope we can let it slide.

Anyway, I posting this because not only did I FINALLY get "Dracula X" for a decent price, but it triggered a nice family moment: So I'm sitting downstairs in my cinema / game room and try out all these new games. Meanwhile my wife and son (three years old) come home, he of course runs into my room and he sees "Dracula X" running on the Sony CRT.
Since I played a few minutes of NES with him recently, of course he wants to play this too, and I let him. Sure, he can't do much yet, a bit of walking, couple of jumps, but he loves it nonetheless.
Anyway, the point is: We go back upstairs and he can't wait to tell my wife that THIS is his favorite game. Well....good taste, young'un!  :dance:

Thank you!

Hey, sorry for my late post. Was quite busy the last couple of weeks.

The IFU doesn´t really "attach" to it. You get 2 pieces of plastic that slide into holes on the ROM2 AMP. They are moulded in a way that you just lay the suitcase on top of it, e.g. there is no "click" or pin pushed in or lock switching.

It is just that simple and at the same time doesn´t look cheap. You can take off the suitcase anytime you want without hitting a button. Plus the ROM2 AMP has an additional power outlet, thru which one could power the whole IFU as well. A maximum of 100W is possible.

Since I live in Europe I bought a switching adapter that outputs 100V from a 230V line, quite cheap (I think I didn´t pay more than 15 Euros for it) also. Stay away from the obvious china fakes - best place is Amazon where I live.

Random question: is it truly not recommended to use the official Japanese PC Engine Duo-R power supply in North America? Doujindance (eBay seller) says one must use another power supply (e.g. X'Eye, Genesis model 2, etc.) for it to be less risky or something. What do you guys use/recommended?

Thanks in advance.

I recommend upgrading to a regulated model, there is worthwhile benefit in doing so.

You want a 9 VDC adapter that's rated at 1.5 Amps or more. Here's the one I purchased on Steve's (our resident Electrical Engineer and PCEFX turbo repairman!) recommendation and at a great price of $2.50:

www.ebay.com/itm/Adapter-AC-100-240V-to-9V-1500mA-Power-Supply-Charger-Converter (http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Plug-Adapter-AC-100-240V-to-9V-1500mA-Power-Supply-Charger-Converter-Adaptor/111690007842)

Then you'll want the Duo tip as well:

http://console5.com/store/parts/dc-power-jacks/turbo-duo-power-connector.html

Alternatively, if you don't care about preserving the original power supply, you can desolder the wire off of it and solder it on the new 9 VDC model once it arrives. Up to you. If you buy the tip and use a new wire, you'll have the option to make it nice and long, like 7 feet or so, as out of the box, only 3 feet is provided.

Another option: Don't have soldering skills or the time for a little DIY project ? You can buy ready-made power supplies then. Here's one at $13 (notice the price difference, but much worse at say RetroGameCave - don't buy from him, rip-off at $23!):

http://gamedoctorhk.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=69&products_id=817&zenid=9u50rdo757m65iolfl0epo1jg3



Here's why you should switch: I learned from Steve that the CD motor area receives unregulated voltage which will be much higher on your Japanese power supply because it's a cheap, linear, unregulated model. The 2 regulators inside a Duo console for 5 VDC and 8 VDC are for the motherboard and sound processing, but yeah, the CD motor area doesn't receive its power from one of those regulators surprisingly!

My Turbo Duo power supply for 120 VAC input outputs 13 VDC, despite the 10 VDC range that it's labeled with. Now, since yours is targeted for the VAC used in Japan at 100 Volts, you're possibly getting like ~16-19 or more VDC out, would simply be a little higher. Now that's fine, the internal regulators are designed to handle up to 35 VDC, they'll just run more hotter the higher the voltage, but this will add stress to that motor area since as Steve says, that part is unregulated.

Aside from that, it's better you give the internal regulators the least amount of voltage needed so they operate with less heat and last much longer. It's better for the regulator on your power supply to burn out than the one inside your unit which would force you to open it up and replace it. A burned out power supply is much more easily replaced obviously.

In short, a modern, regulated power supply is much better than the cheap, "retro" OEM power supplies from the 198Xs ("Retro" [power supplies] are NOT better in this case despite what say the Runyons of the Internet might think!). When used with the console, its internal regulators will produce less heat, and in principle, last longer and the CD motor area won't be subjected to varying voltages depending on what your incoming house voltage is (mine is 126 VAC). With all the extra smoothing capacitors, the new ones likely handle surges somewhat better as well.



FYI: I recently succeeded in upgrading my TurboExpress' power supply to the 6 VDC model that Steve also recommended. Also cheap at $2.59 and a million times better than the OEM brick model, which literally is big and heavy enough to kill somebody with! Here it is:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/171414825591?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I was surprised, everything works fine thus far. He basically learned what the bare minimum voltage that the device will operate with. And logically, less is better, less heat, less wear, just what's needed with enough Amps.

I couldn't find the "What PCE games are you playing thread." Is it buried somewhere on page 85?

This came in the post,  Unfortunately I can't find anyone here in the UK to do a decent job of modding my console so this will have to do.  There are cheaper alternatives but I am not sure of how the picture and sound will be..

Haven't had a chance to actually try it out yet...got some work to catch up on first.
From the screenshots on the back, definitely looks like a regular baseball game (similar to the Power League series -- no fat, pudgy Famista style players) with perhaps some enhancements thrown in for the CD format.  Strangely enough, I see no youtube vids of this particular title online.

Either way, I really love baseball games on the PCE, so I'm sure I'll love it. 
Been playing a partial season of Intec's baseball game on the PCE CD ROM while waiting for this one to arrive.

Regarding that blue bag in Super Play's post, I was also wondering if it had a specific purpose.  Perhaps it's for the PC Engine GT handheld?  Or maybe it's one of those Japanese style pen cases (see www.jetpens.com (http://www.jetpens.com/) for similar items)?

I'd say that bag looks too small for a GT. That would be really cool if it did fit though.

Also what baseball game on the CD rom are you reffering to? I've tried a few baseball games on the everdrive. Liked Naxat Stadium and the Power Leagues, but didn't know it went beyond that. For a season, are you able to save or have a password?

It's this one here (made by Intec circa 1990) --

I've seen it called "Pro baseball Stars" but I honestly have no idea what the name translates to.
Plays very similar to the Power League games, and yes, you can save a season without having to use passwords.

It gets pretty damn challenging.

I have to revisit it...I have to determine if the controls/UI is fair or poorly implemented (cumbersome).

I actually don't mind games in this genre...but I usually played them on a computer with a keyboard + mouse.

You must make a video showing how to use that controller with a Pachinko game.

I want to see how you twist that rotary(?) thing. I'm not even sure where the fingers go.

I've watched videos of real Pachinko machines, but I don't have this controller (it's the same one used for Famicom and other platforms, IIRC) and it's been nagging at me.

Yes, I got this stuff and I can attest that it works very well.
Personally, I use it for my PC Engine (the original, the white one) on a Bang & Olufsen TV (MX 4200 for specialists) and the result is simply perfect .. !!

This shop, I have also consolised an MVS slot (MV-1C), modded a SNES (swichless region free) and the work was always very clean.

Bud the bad thing is prices.
It must be recognized that the prices are a bit high, especially compared to the work of some skilled guys who are selling their services on forums ..

Hello,
Kind of confusing, I have to get used to swap the options during combat. For what I see, I only hold button I while I mark the red option "attack", I push down till I swap to the green option to charge Ki, the other one is guard and no clue about the 4rth option. For the rest, it's like Dragon Ball Legends, attack the other till you fill the blue bar then cast an attack (here you choose something but I didn't find out what does what).

Just think of this game as an old version of Dragon Ball Legends haha

In the last couple of days, I bought some extra controllers, controller extensions, and Ys IV. I'm not sure why it took me this long to decide that paying a little to sit more than five feet from the tv while playing is worth it.

If you mean just the white tray, you can get replacements relatively cheap off amazon/ebay/etc.

That's what is great about CD case games.  Easy to replace, and im sure you may have gotten a better deal because most people would be like eeew, but the moment you replace it you are then going to be the person laughing because you got a better deal out of the rest of people =P

pretty much you have the last laugh.

Thanks OP. I need to relive my childhood with Parasol Stars first :P That was my favorite TG-16 game growing up, but a neighborhood kid pocketed it, so I've not been able to play it on the console for years. After that, Galaga is next!

forgot to add Daichi Kun crisis a while ago but just got NHK Taiga Drama Taiheiki.  Pretty good strategy turn based war game set in feudal Japan.  I might try and do a guide for this as I really do like the graphics.  It's mostly in Kanji.  Both are very good strategy games in their own right.

(http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m113/secretsociety1/pc engine screenshots/03be6a0a-9e2b-41b3-81e4-da090a28a6b6.jpg)

The game is divided in two segments and you will eventually guide 14 warlords who each have a part in  ruling parts of Japan.  But you start at Chihaya fortress and controling Kusunoki Masashige from the time period 1294 1336. Its battles and strategy from the get go in Hex style!  Both games do require back up ram as there is much progress to be made in these games.

My white Duo-R finally came today after taking a while to swim across Pacifc ocean.  It arrived fine and looks very good, like it hasn't been used much. I do need to check for minor video problem, the seller reported infrequent video glitches, which suggest probably bad solder joint on AV connector, one of the component or on HuC6260 chip.  I did a quick check, there is no sign of cap issue so it should be OK for now.

Still waiting for that AV cable. I swear USPS is getting slower every day!

Just got back from a long 100+ miles drive to trade stuff.  It was cheaper to drive than to pack and ship a big Commodore 128D (some mod and JiffyDOS) and an RGB monitor.

What I got back from the trade was CIB TurboExpress, CIB AC adapter, and CIB car adapter. Those boxes are very nice shape, almost like it was just made this year and not 20 years ago.   :mrgreen: TE does have sound issue and will need recapping for sure.

 I'd post picture but 4 hours driving home while dealing with rush hour traffic that moved at snail pace (why its called rush when it's slow is beyond me) and I am tired.    :-&

I got a Shuttle Backup Unit (yesterday!), I haven't tested it but I opened it to have a look inside. The battery is a NiCd rechargable, is it likely to still work or will it be dead by now? The legs going to the battery look to have slight corrosion, should I remove it before it starts to leak electrolyte? Is there a good easy to find replacement/alternative?
Thanks chums.

Finally got me a Turbo Duo!
Snagged it at the Video Game Summit today.  They said it was dead, but I got them down to a good price and took a gamble on it.  Turned out it just had a bad video connector on the A/V cable!
It's in great condition, and as far as I can tell, it's working 100%.  The sound still works fine, but I'll still re-cap it sometime soon.

Big Ol' RPG haul today.  Luckily everything was complete.

Nice haul, particularly the Cosmic Fantasies and Beyond Shadowgate.  And the Magicoal too, I guess; I've bought many but have yet to play through it.  :oops:

After Beyond Shadowgate, Magicoal was the game I am most excited to play from this lot.

Nah, I'll be leaving it stock.  I've got a Duo R for all my JP HuCard needs.
But it turned out I was wrong.  After playing it for a bit, I started having some serious sound issues.  No big surprise.  Caps are getting ordered tomorrow!

Money's been tight, but I've somehow still managed to waste a little here lately.

Neutopia was kind of superfluous, as I can play it already on my ED, but it's one of the few US Turbo games I still wanted a physical copy of & I got what I believe to be an okay price for it, given how expensive it's been on the 'bay these days. 

Browning...well, I've been on a Telenet kick lately & it was dirt cheap.  It's not as bad as people make it out to be, but it is short & the controls leave a bit to be desired.  I am a sucker for them graphics, though...

Also, anyone notice the name of the player character in this game is similar to the one in Fiend Hunter (Breed Schuyler -> Feed Sluster) even though he refers to himself as "Arnold" at one point in the game...

The Ys is for Turbo, game and (I think) the map are legit but the manual and case backing are repro. Figured I needed at least one CD game that I could understand.

Fixed. Don't know why it wasn't able to be seen. It was through Google Photos, so I don't know why it wasn't loading at first. Switched to a different image upload site.

I've been trying to grab a copy of this as well... Missed one on ebay recently. A guy somewhat local to me told me he has two copies so I said figure out what you'd like for one (trade or cash) and I'll try to make it happen, but he's hesitant to give one up because of its "rarity". Smh.

Would it be worthwhile to post a wanted ad here?

I was looking for this thread earlier, since this disc/magazine was not purchased.

So my homie David Shadoff was kind enough to donate (in the name of CD science!) an extra copy of a magazine, the "Super PC Engine Fan Deluxe - Vol.1." Photos below. :)

Inside, there is a pack-in PC-FX CD on a cardboard page of what I wanted, and on the back side, there's another CD, the "Develo Magazine Vol. 1" that contains demos for Popful Mail, Fray CD Xak Gaiden and Assembly/Basic-developed games, along with development tools, etc.

I just wanted the Special PC-FX CD bonus because its CD structure is unique in that it uses 5 or so indexes on data track #5 and I want to study/work with it to implement/perfect TurboRip's lacking track analysis phase, but he decided to throw in the whole magazine which, hey, is a cool PCE time warp to boot!

Before this, I asked SamIAm to see if he could find the CD in Japan which was silly to do first because David had originally discovered the uniqueness of this CD's indexing and gave me a CloneCD image long time ago, plus sometimes he winds up with duplicates, so I asked him next and turned out he did indeed have an extra he was willing to part with, so that's how I wound up with it!!!

Everyone with Motteke Tamago has reported disc rot.

Send the disc to me and I will remove the disc rot (I live near a swamp, so I simply take some leeches, attach them to disc, and after a few hours the disc rot is gone).

I will only charge $10 +'shipping for Rot Removal.

Disclaimer: The following post is basically a shameless gloat on my part. I'm sorry.

-----------

So I roll into my regular game shop here in Fukuoka, Japan, and I see a Super CD Rom/Core Grafx II combo sans boxes on sale for a low price...low because the Super CD Rom is broken. The price is 8,000 yen, and the note on the SCD says that it won't spin up any discs. I've actually been eying this thing for a couple of weeks wondering if I should buy it and try to repair it myself. Well, tonight, after an exceptionally hard few days at work, I decided to treat myself and go for it.

I asked the fellow at the counter to take it out of the display case and show it to me a little more first. He agreed. Bear in mind, this is also the same guy who tested it and determined it wouldn't spin up any discs in the first place. However, when he tried to open the disc drive lid, he was surprised to find that it wouldn't budge. He poked and prodded, and it didn't move a bit. At last, with a sigh, he said that at this point, he wasn't even sure they would be able to sell the system at all. I suggested I would buy it at a discounted price, and he offered it for 5,000 yen instead of 8,000.

I took the deal. Upon arriving home, I dusted off my trusty torx security driver and busted that SCD open. Sure enough, the switch that opens the lid was just worn down. A little plastic-safe grease on there and it was working again. So, how about the system itself?

Ahem...Ladies and gentlemen, there was nothing wrong with it. It spins CDs just fine. I don't know what this guy was doing that made him judge otherwise, but I just got a working Super CD Rom system for 5,000 yen with a free Core Grafx II (plus extra controller). Now look what I can do:

I use a boron-nitride compound from Tamiya. It's made to use on both plastic and metal gearing in remote control cars...so it's surely good enough for the moving parts in a game console like the SCD.

It also doesn't hurt to give the gears that move the laser a little bit of grease, as well as the rail that the laser slides on. I've done that with my Duos, and I'm going to do that tomorrow with this!

Ah, the same David fan translated that free game which was only released in that magazine.

I have all downloads for it here if you didn't know (since it was a freebie, there's no problem sharing all of it):

Translated scans are included that PCEFX Aaron helped with.

Funny enough, in an older edit, I specified it's a Super PC Engine CDROM^2, but I tried to trim my content later and space it out better. :) Evidently it was meant for continued tinkering/development, late as it was released at the end of the PC Engine's lifespan, but yeah, it's a PCECD.

Ahh okay, I see now.  It was an included demo on the Develo Disc, that came with the Super PC-Engine Fan Deluxe Vol. 1 magazine.  Looks like there was a matching sleeve.  I've got the sample Popful Mail PCE from kisaku but I'm guessing the demo is different, hmmm.

Now I need to start priming up my searches again for something new that's Popful Mail related.  ;)

very nice! im sure people who aren't familiar with pc engine will mistake it for a snes controller

Crazy thing is, a used SFC version goes for more than a new in box PCE version!

Gokuraku Chuka Taisen (http://www.pcengine.co.uk/HTML_Games/Cloud_Master.htm)
I've been wanting this one for quite a while.  Hopefully the gameplay is as good as reviews have indicated.

$2!? Good grief, that's cheap! Did it come in good condition with a spinecard?

I actually think Xanadu II is more polished than YsIV, but you'll have to judge for yourself. :)

Well the shipping was $5  :wink: And all in all it came in good condition. I'm glad too since I didn't really want to pay $18 or w/e the current going rate is.

I think I will have to look up a faq to make it to someplace exciting, like a dungeon. At the very least, everything is fairly easy and clear to understand (though some of the menu options confuse me).

How so? You mean M. Bison being Vega, Vega being Balrog and Balrog being M. Bison? If so, that's the standard Japanese names for the characters...if not, I've never noticed anything wrong (admittedly I haven't played it too much)?

Balrog was M. Bison at first as a play on Mike Tyson, but threat of lawsuit led them to change it for the international release. And anyway, Vega doesn't look much like a Balrog, nor does M. Bison seem to fit the name Vega, which has a Spanish tinge to it. We got the better names, imo.

I know, it's amazing right?  I wish I could find out more about the TG-16 cover artists.  I haven't even done a proper search here, I should probably start with that I guess - maybe it's already been discussed a ton.  But I honestly would be interested (and not to shame them or anything) just as a piece of history.  Maybe find out some of the different reasons why they changed some of them besides licensing or "too Japanese" for the west.  I'm sure there's some interesting censorship stories.  If someone put out a book containing all of the North American release cover art in high definition, I would totally buy it.  Guess maybe sometime after Art of Sierra comes out or someone decides to do a book with Atari 2600 Cartridge Art...

Definitely.  I'm not hailing them as masterpieces, of course - but it's something I spent a great deal of my time looking at in my childhood and that I have a fondness for one way or the other.  I have a Sega artbook which is filled with artwork from the 80s and 90s that is both amazing and laughable (usually not at the same time) and it's all just a joy to look at.  The Phantasy Star 2 art is incredible while the belabored Golden Axe III art tries on it's hardest Boris Vallejo impersonation, but it always gives me a smile.

From the other buy thread:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/311442893537

I couldn't buy Legend of Xanadu II for $15 bucks by itself from HitJapan as someone competed with me in the auction, but then right after I saw another listing for both games with a Make Offer option, I tried for $16 total which was accepted. :) I'm guessing condition will be a factor, but whatever, I'll see.

Also, I might just raffle the extra copy of Legend of Xanadu I that I bought from BlueBMW some day since this buy leaves me with 2 copies... Will just pick the best case, manual, CD, etc. and get rid of what's left. :/

http://www.ebay.com/itm/361288093846

Gulliver Boy. I lost an auction as a sniper came in at the last second. It got bid up to $15.50 as a result. But HitJapan also had 2 other copies with Make Offer, so using that final winning bid, I offered $15.50, but it was rejected... I looked some more, found their other Make Offer listing, I try $15, and they accepted it (maybe it's not as good in condition)! Hah, weird. So yeah, scored it at $15 flat with S/H. They wanted $19 total.

Sweet on getting LoX and Gulliver Boy, NightWolve!

I'm stoked because of something that's kind of stupid and awesome at the same time. 

The stupid part is that I just realized today that I still had over $100 sitting in my PayPal account, because I'm a dummy and forgot to transfer the money to my bank account during the hustle and bustle of my big move a few months ago.

The good part is that I used a portion of that to finally get myself a copy of Popful Mail!  I'm in the minority camp that prefers the PCE version to the Mega CD, so I'm completely stoked for it to get here.  I was never able to finish it through slightly dubious means due to a bad rip, so now I'll finally get a chance to get to the end and not have the cutscenes be all screwed up!  I'll take some pics when it gets here.

I also finally got myself a US version of Ys Books I&II, which means I now own that, the Japanese version, the JP PSN store version, and the US Wii Virtual Console version.  Hooray for poor financial decisions!

If it's really just dirt, a little alcohol will usually clean 'em right up.  If it's yellowed from UV as I suspect, however, they'll be clean but still look dingy unless you whiten 'em up with some peroxide.

I think it might be from smoking, possibly.  I am worried about destroying stuff with chemicals, I tried to get a sticker off of one of them today with some goo gone and it just made it a hundred times worse.  I chucked the plastic cover of the jewel case and swapped with it another, and I'm gonna buy some replacement jewel cases in the next day or so to at least swap the tops.

It mighta been Goof off, I have to check it again.  I thought it was just lighter fluid basically.. anyway, no big deal, I had removed the plastic case cover separately, it wasn't in that great of condition to begin with.  The manual, cd, insert, etc. were nowhere nearby and are safe.  Just gonna replace it with a generic jewel case cover.

It was indeed goof off, I will be more careful next time - the name is so similar sounding to goo gone...  Can someone give me some foolproof instructions on how to clean the white trays?  Just dish soap and water first maybe?   If I need peroxide or IPA or whatever, exactly what kind do I buy?  I will end up replacing the standard jewel case parts entirely.

It's a pretty awesome puzzle game. You essentially plan a course of action by programming steps in, and then see if your crazy plan actually works.

I already have the Japanese versions of the Ys games, but I've wanted the English copies for a long time now.  Thanks to Justin's nice sale over in the Turbo Sales thread, I finally was able to get Ys III, and I've already played through it once since getting it.  I'm a little ways into Ys II at the moment as well. 

Yay!

Heh.  It's probably the most expensive game I'll ever get for my Duo-R.  I was just lucky in that I had forgotten about money that was sitting in my PayPal account, which helped me pay for it.  If I had waited a week longer, I probably would have never gotten it, as I got appendicitis not long after I ordered it, and now I have medical bills to worry about before I can go back to buying stuff.

I just wish I had a good PC and a capture card, as this is a game that is sorely lacking in YouTube footage.  I see tons of Let's Plays for the Sega CD version, but hardly anything for the PCE version.

EDIT:

Welp... I beat 'em all already!  (^_^;)

I was actually just looking up screen comparisons, there are 4 versions I believe.  PC-88 1991 the orginal, then SNES, PCE - 1994 as well as the Sega CD port in 1995.  (might be one more in there)

 I gave the PC Engine version a run through earlier this year and thought it was pretty fun.  I enjoyed the Sega CD version the few times I played it but I haven't touched it in a long time.  I don't know which version I enjoyed playing more but the PC Engine version's vibrant colors look great on such a cheerful platformer.  Sega CD version just looks too drab.

Something I once learned from Game Sack: See that Thomas H. Church credit for Goban Toba ? Yep, that's one in the same as Thomas Haden Church, the Hollywood actor last known for playing Sandman in Spider-Man 3! The Ys Book I & II dub was well-funded and still is one of the best that I know of in a videogame.

Honestly the Ys 1&2 voice acting is close to perfect, specially in contrast with Telenet games lol. One can wonder how would be the localization of Ys 3 (maybe 4?) if NEC was the top dog in the console wars.

Yup.  Jim Cummings is a big one for me.  He's done so many voices for Disney it's not even funny.  He was Darkwing Duck, and is currently the voice of Pete, Winnie the Pooh, and lord knows how many others.  I can't hear Dalles without it sounding like Pete to me.

Yeah, that's pretty cool, and you know, I think it deserves its own topic which I might make good on if my excursion works out. I've been trying to extract the original ADPCM clips out of the Ys Book I & II data track so we can have the purest/cleanest clips available. It would be great to have a page organized around every actor, their real photo next to their in-game photo esteban-style.

It seems though there has already been a site dedicated to cataloging this type of historical information which does just that! Here's the entry Ys Book I & II:

http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/video-games/Ys-Book-I-and-II/side-by-side/

If you listen to the example clips however, some of them were recorded while playing the game on a TV, they're pretty terrible. Many raw ADPCM clips often don't include the background music as that's generated at runtime with PSG code, so if all of them can be extracted, we'll have the cleanest possible sound provided the best ADPCM-to-WAVE conversion software can be used (the best that I know of is Sound Exchange).

Anyway, I already made good progress and tracked down the offset where much of the ADPCM voice-acting begins - I have Thomas H. Church's work already extracted and playing nicely! I just have to divide the data up properly for the extraction batch files so that they can be shared in a dub kit (as I did for Ys IV), identify it all, see how much is there, etc.

^ I love this—can't wait to hear what you get. Sadly, the ADPCM audio clips are of a significantly lower quality... :(
Title: Re: What PC-Engine Stuff did you get today?
Post by: NightWolve on October 16, 2015, 10:41:10 AM
Yeah, unless some old NEC employee finds all the project materials like the original source recordings, the raw ADPCM binary stream from the Ys Book I & II data track is the best that we'll ever get...

That's if guessing that they were recorded in wave first; they could've went directly to ADPCM and so there might not actually exist a recording that's better in quality. But nah, that's a silly bet since some of the voice-acting is on the redbook audio tracks, so they were recording to wave (AKA 16-bit stereo 44100 Hz PCM) first in those cases, thus original wave files likely do exist of everything on some old NEC USA computer right now, but who knows where it's all at... :)

Would be cool if companies thought to donate old hard drives and what not with stuff like that to videogame historical/preservation groups but obviously things like that would rate very low, if ever, on a priority list. Would be a shame if it all just sort of got thrown out with the trash. In 1990, what kind of PC would they have been using for a localization project, like say a Tandy 1000 ?? How long would you keep equipment like that around as a company ?? It's probably safe to say most stuff got nuked after they got out of the videogame business on the US side of things...

So, PCE gets. I very rare buy any new Obey these days because of the LOL pricing as of late, but I did just get in a new Avenue 6 pad today! I was skeptical that it was actually new due to the relatively low price and was prepared to argue for a partial refund if it was actually used.

Funny enough I thought the game was Gain Ground, and then see it was Gradius II and was like well dammit haha

You could tell it was Gradius from the original photo because it has the "Konami" logo at the bottom right. From there, it's just a process of elimination to remember out how many Konami CD games have been released, and what the covers look like.

Controller came in today! It's actually in better shape than advertised. It seriously looks almost brand new. Everything is tight, and it plays like a dream. Using the original PCE Duo controller vs the 6-Button RX controller makes me feel like I'm definitely not playing the games on emulator now. For some reason the controller just makes everything perfect. I'll post a pic when I get a chance.

Got Rainbow Islands and Fray Xak Gaiden in the mail today. Lost at least 2 and a half hours to Rainbow Islands, the game is so frustrating for me but I can't stop playing it. Fray is OK, I think with this one I liked the look and idea of it more than anything though. Even if the game was in English everything would still seem way too drawn out; I've only gotten to the second boss and I almost feel like I've spent more time sitting through dialog and scrolling through text than I have actually playing anything.

Post by: EmperorIng on December 15, 2015, 04:31:58 PM
The dialog in Fray can be a little drawn out, and I wish I could skip it. It's not Right Stuff-level of complete and total incessant droning; we can all be thankful for that. I found the action stages to be enjoyable, though overall the game is (pleasantly) easy. You're more in it for the fun and colorful ride; luckily the game gets better as it goes on (it really picks up, in my opinion, by the time you start crossing the ocean floor).

Rainbow Islands is indeed fun, though I get murdered by the third world or so.

Post by: gheebee on December 15, 2015, 06:37:18 PM
Yep, the fun graphics and similar gameplay to Valkyrie no Densetsu were what made Fray hard to resist for me, I'll stick with it and look forward to more action later in the game.

There is a certain section in Fray that I found so frustrating that I just put the disc away in a drawer away from sunlight... Maybe I am just crap at it but there is a level where a sage splits the lake apart and you get bumped into the bottom of the sea..  A section where you have to jump on falling logs.. That is really pissing me off..

Eh, you're doing better than me; I haven't even beaten the second boss yet! Like most I get frustrated when I have to do parts of a game over and over again but this one makes it worse because even though you continue on the boss you still have to go through some of the dialog and/or text before you can fight again.

Well, I didn't get all of this in one day but this is basically my xmas present to myself over the past month or two.

SuperGrafx unit that was sold as junk. Fully restored and working. I even found an original SuperGrafx power supply for it.
The Super CD-Rom 2 unit was locked away in a box for some collectard. So I decided to liberate it. I recapped it and RGB modded it. Works great with the SuperGrafx.
LAst but not least I bought myself a Memory Base 128 after reading the Hero thread from Nullity. This was brand new in the box and well, I opened it and now use it full time for backing up saves.
(https://s5.postimg.cc/haccdujoj/DSC00705.jpg)(https://s5.postimg.cc/q438uy6n7/DSC00704.jpg)


Cosmic Fantasy, Cosmic Fantasy 3, Cosmic Fantasy 4ch1, Cosmic Fantasy 4ch2
Y's 4: The Dawn of Y's, Popful Mail, The Legend of Xanadu, The Legend of Xanadu 2
Emerald Dragon, Wizardry 1&2, Wizardry 2&3, Wizardry 5
I really enjoyed Cosmic Fantasy 2 US version so I wanted the rest of the series. Y's 4 and the Xanadu games have translations or are being translated so I wanted those to make patching an original much simpler instead of trying from a .bin .cue from online.
Emerald Dragon and Popful Mail are memory base 128 compatible and I read good things about both so.... Wizardry 1-5 was something I found interest in after the game of the week. I found a full set from one buyer and jumped on it.
(https://s5.postimg.cc/4wzi6xu03/DSC00706.jpg)

All of the repro's from Bernie and crew.
All of the SuperGrafx games original and enhanced by the SuperGrafx. <-- This was the collectard showing in me. But, Darius Plus, Battle Ace and Madō King Granzort were brand new and sealed. Once again I liberated them and they are now ready to be played once I get to them.
Last but not least the Arcade Duo card. I plan on grabbing two 6 button controllers at some point with more Arcade card games down the road.

For free. o_O

There was some guy a bought a bunch of games from and he discovered he had a second copy of DC, next to the one he wanted to sell. And since he knew I was looking for one to fill the gap between my "Alien Crush" and "Jaki Crush", he gave it to me totally out of the blue! Very happy about that. :)

EDIT: It seems to be very awesome, by the way. Just played for 15 minutes or so so far but wow....visuals and music sure are nice.

I can play using Terry and Ryo in these games and that's pretty much it.  I played a lot of KOF 95 on the Saturn and Match of the Millennium on NGPC, but all of the other titles I've only played a little bit of.  So I feel ya on not being great at fighting games, but even still every now and then I like to pick one up.   For me, I get bored long before the point you'd need to play to get really good at one.  Kabuki Ittoryoudan seems like a pretty good PCE exclusive if you like fighting games, I'd like to get that one myself to complete my PCE Tengai Makyou collection.

Kabuki is probably my main reason to have an arcade card duo besides Sapphire.  The arcade card ports of the neo fighters are the best you're going to get next to an actual neo-geo.  It's also nice to have for certain hybrid games when watching cut scenes.

Yeah, I've never been good at these types of games but usually I can beat at least a couple of people before I lose; even when I put it on beginner I couldn't get anywhere in Fatal Fury Special! They are pretty nice looking and sounding games though and, surprisingly, the zooming in and out on Art of Fighting didn't really bother me like I thought it might.

Latest batch of games.

I didn't even think I was going to be able to repossess the US Turbo versions of Dragon Slayer and Ys Book but I think I got a good deal on them.  Also last time I played Dragon Slayer I was lucky a guy loaned me his copy for a few weeks if I recall correctly we met from classified ads probably some kind of video game trade pc engine stuff.  Even thought I beat the game I still wanted to own a copy and alas he wouldn't sell it.    I used to just play the music directly from the CD audio back then but now i love the pcm tracks and amazingly they have sampled drums.  Tokimeki and Future boy are still shrink wrapped.. I don't think I will have time to try them all out.  My games keep telling me to delete stuff from memory.....

I think I recognize at least one of those games.  :dance:

If you ever feel like booting up MAME I can totally recommend P-47 Aces (P-47's sequel) as top-notch.

Spent a little too much moolah than I wanted to for Super Raiden. I've gotten far into the arcade original's first loop, but get crushed pretty pitilessly; I suppose the much-toned-down difficulty of Super Raiden will offer a far quicker clear.

Similarly so with Super Darius II. I am a gigantic Darius fanboy, so it was more of me biding my time until I couldn't resist picking up the game a few weeks ago. The zoomed-in nature of the play-field is quite strange; wholly unlike Super Darius 1. The Arcade Darius II's first stage on the sun was already pretty slow and easy, but SD2 takes it to new levels with its extremely anemic rocks and nonexistent enemy formations. I look forward to diving deeper into the game to see if it picks up more of a pace. I've been only able to clear the MegaDrive Darius II, as the arcade version is incredibly ruthless with its "do it in one life or bust" mentality.

Post by: EmperorIng on January 06, 2016, 07:30:23 AM
Thanks; I've made it to the 7th stage of arcade Raiden without using a continue; I wager the PC Engine version cannot be more assholish than that game's penchant for hiding tanks on the bottom corners of the screen and sniping your feeble ship out of the sky.

I was able to clear Kyuukyoku Tiger's PCE port a few months ago, which, like all Toaplan games, redefines "long-ass stages." The K-Tiger copycat Raiden moves along at a brisk pace comparatively!

EDIT: Fun fact: I mentioned this elsewhere, but I suppose it's worth mentioning that Super Raiden and the PCE port of Kyuukyoku Tiger were developed by the same group, A.I. - as opposed to NEC and Taito as had been previously thought. Small world!

Another addition to my NEC console collection. I've always loved the Duo design. I do have a soft spot for the suitcase but it's nice having everything in one nice package.

Lady Phantom is a bit underrated and I love the music.  Really wish there was a translation of this.  I beat it, but have no clue what the story is or what the characters are saying in the game.

 I wanted to share something I have been wanting a long time. I received a package from the man, myth, and legend of PCEFX forums: Keith Courage. First I want to say is "KEITH, THANK YOU!" You have provided a drop dead gorgeous system that I can enjoy for years to come. Keith is great to work with and provided exactly what I asked for: A RGB modded beautifully restored PC Engine Briefcase Setup.

Also I know I'm in total noob status on the forums, but I like it here. Tend to read more than post. It really is a mix of talents and opinions and overall truly the best place on the internet for anything TG-16 or PCE. Thank you all for each one of your contributions. Now if you will excuse me, I'm off the play my PCE!   (Modified from last post to actually show pics without having to click on links. Why didn't I do this before? Because I'm a dork!)  :P

I do love the Engrish peppered inside the manual:

(http://i417.photobucket.com/albums/pp257/Emperor_Phoenix/imagefight2 2_zpszzyvykci.jpg)

I know I've been IN TOO DEEP in LUST CITY before; let me tell you boys, there are consequences.

And something we all can enjoy, horrifically-drawn character art. This is junior-high level art here:

(http://i417.photobucket.com/albums/pp257/Emperor_Phoenix/imagefight2 3_zpsft75oyss.jpg)

I've been playing the original on Ootake for a while to get to know it, and while the port is flawed, the sequel fixes just about every problem I have with the port (that being: the gigantic hitbox!). Image Fight II is a real treat. Despite its high difficulty, it is far more fair about its assholish behavior than the HuCard game. I've been told I need an avenue 3 pad to really get the most out of it, because the pod-firing button is mapped to select, which is less than ideal.

I guess that's an excuse to get an avenue 3 pad down the road, and Forgotten Worlds! (maybe; I really like the Genesis port).

Satellites of love.

But, sadly, even satellites of love fail to provide more than 3% of the fun vs. a proper 2-player co-op.

SOLUTION:
When playing Turbo Forgotten Worlds, simply pretend you are at the arcade with a friend, but, unfortunately, your friend has already RUN OUT OF QUARTERS.

new pce stuff.  I really haven't spent too much time with them and although over the years I was deliberating on possession of Powerdrift I finally caved in...I've always thought it a poor port but now I kinda appreciate it.  It's just I know it could have been better if it was done out of the hands of ASMIK.

Arunamu no Kiba I am really impressed, the in-game cut scenes are really well done, also because a lot of the in-game music has drum samples.  Haven't spent too much time with Neo Metal Fantasy yet.

I've been looking for a Super CD ROM attachment for my Core Grafx for a while and finally decided to get a Duo R instead after finding a deal from lastcallhall on this site. The sale included an Arcade card, Avenue Pad 6, Core Grafx pad, multi tap, and component mod. I may end up selling my Core Grafx to help offset this purchase, but that is undecided at this time.  I need to see what those even sell for right now.

Thanks again to lastcallhall for the great deal.  Everything was packaged well and shipped quickly.

Well of course, the way to enjoy it as much as possible is to play it in English.  :D

Aren't the Wizardry games partially in English?

Still crazy to think about all the Neo Geo ports the system got all the way into 1994... Even if the 8bit sound effects in World Heroes 2 are pretty lame, the whole package is very impressive.

To be honest, it pains me greatly that the Sega CD version exists. It is the sole reason people are demotivated from translating the PCE version, which in my opinion, is probably one of the best/pure versions of the game out there.

Well the SegaCD version does also have additional scenes and such that aren't in the PCE version if I remember correctly. So it doesn't help that it really is considered a bit more a definitive version than the PCE one when trying to convince people to do a translation.

I've never played with a PCE, until now, but I really like the games I've tried so far. I'm pretty addicted to Castlevania right now...

my girlfriend made it for me! it's a one-off. you may notice it has the sunset from cross wiber in the logo as well.

If she feels like it, maybe we'll set up a side thing with obscure logos, like what 1cc does, but different designs!

I scored Mysterious Song [SE] for $19.95 today in another clearance flash sale (50 sold out in ~3 hours!) by Rover, not bad for a new homebrew CD, and doesn't offend my cheap bastard inclinations much.

My copy arrived today, so that was 6 days ago from the order date, not bad. CD/Manual look perfect, but slight bang-up led to a little crack on the case, and about half of the teeth that grip the disc by its center had broken off, a few more and it would've come loose! As it's just a standard generic CD case, it's no big deal to grab another one and do a swap. Anyway, gonna add its TOC to TurboRip's internal database right now if that's not what Bernie already gave me. It's good to see the Turbo got another full traditional RPG game as it never got as much compared to the SNES back in that era.

Got a S-Video mod installed in my Duo by Keith Courage and it showed up the other day. Originally I was reluctant to get this mod since I ultimately want to get something with RGB input and then get an RGB mod, but I have a TV with S-Video now so I caved and got this. The result is fantastic and I'm glad I had this done, it was worth every penny!

Second best video mod most people can get on older consoles.  RGB is the best one but not everyone has access to RGB capable display. S-Video is very good and is great if you have display with S-Video.

The next best is composite which is the default of most consoles and they do suck now day.

There's also component (which is about same as RGB overall) and HDMI but a lot of them are only on newer consoles and extreme modding on older consoles.  RF round out the list and it's the pits.  It was fine in 1970 when most people had tiny 13" B&W TV.  It looks diwnright ugly when you're using a 100" HDTV.

Not exactly. I bought one of those cards because it was like $80 plus shipping only to realize there wasn't very much interest in it and will try the other games on my everdrive instead of buying another one. I think there are three of these caravan hi card games in total.

Today I got Dead Moon from Gynt's raffle!!

The game is a lot more satisfying than I expected - I like the little backstory it starts with, and then the visual storytelling in the first stage, having the moon behind you at all times, looking a bit as though it's been crashed into. Then you fight your way up there - it's nice! Haven't beaten it yet, though, the mortars on the moon stage really get me! their hitboxes are kind of ambiguous.

Good luck with that.  I've been searching for a TG16 for years now and finally caved and ordered a PCE (because it's way cooler looking in the briefcase with the cd addon) from Japan.  Now I'm just waiting on my Turbo Everdrive and once I verify everything works I'm going to mod it for s-video.

Wow, i never knew that the PCE originally didn't have Turbo Switches!!  Is that a rare controller or just a nice oddity to have?

Both, I guess.  They're much less common than controllers with turboswitches, as every 'normal' (not a mouse, illustbooster, or pachinko) controller later produced had turbos; but it's just an oddity, not something that makes any difference in game play and a must have.

I was browsing fleebay a week ago and saw this on a newly posted Buy it now.  Paid 35.00 shipped for it.  Not sure what they go for and I rarely see them.  Thought it would go well with my Shuttle.  Now I just need a HuCard that writes to backup memory to test it with.

Got my first PC Engine game in the mail today. After agonizing over what game to get for weeks, I ended up going with Splatterhouse.

It's a fun game. :)

Perfect for October (as someone mentioned on another thread).

As a Friday the 13th fan, I've liked this game/series for years and wanted to specifically get the PC Engine version :)

I'm really happy to have a physical copy after so long, so now I want to play the hell out of it and git gud.

The Shubibinman games are relatively new to me. These don't get enough love.

I also popped in Splatterhouse's PCE port for some seasonal slaughter. Since the normal mode 1CC is pretty easy, I decided to go to hard mode (hold down Select at the title screen till it shows up).

Splatterhouse's hard mode is a lot trickier because enemies have much more health. Of course, that could just be my initial shock at a couple of strategies no longer working. You need 14-15 shots of shotgun ammo to kill Biggy Man on stage 3, which forces you to crouch kick essentially the entire level.

This could be me but the floating cross in the chapel seems more aggressive, as its heads feel like they come more frequently.

Still a great port. There are aspects of it I don't like over the arcade game: IIRC, scrolling stages in the arcade will still scroll even if you are at the left edge of the screen, the slightly looser controls (e.g. you can no longer get two kicks in at a Mirror Rick as it's bursting out of the window), and while it's a minor thing I miss the auto-walk Rick does when getting to the end of a scrolling section (which allowed you to safely get out of fighting some of the boreworms and mirror Ricks later in the game).

Still, it's good fun. I don't know if there are any other non-digital-comic/adventure game horror-themed games on the system other than... Demon World.

I had to do a double take on this....   Then I realized you had "copy" in that sentence.
I was thinking oh dang... That's not real.

The content! I'm curious about the content on each. Any slight variations/differences is what I am curious about.

:)

(I have a vague knowledge of the special HuCARD releases...plus, there is always the chance that you might notice something that previous commenters didn't mention).

For example, the art on the HuCARDs themselves vs. commercial retail product.

PC Genjin 3 Sample is just the exact same thing.

Bomberman Users Battle is quite interesting : the title screen is different and there are only two modes :

- Users Battle 1 (which is the normal multiplayer mode)
- Users Battle 2 (which is the multiplayer mode with the "skull" bonuses).

Haven't tried PC Genjin 3 Taikenban though.

So, for the sample, does it appear to be standard commercial release, but with sticker affixed? Like, for trade shows/journalists/promotional events?

Anyway, thanks for the scoop :)

I should read about these items on the interwebz... I know I read stuff about them years ago...but I clearly didn't retain more than 20% of the info.

I'm curious how much you paid!!

Also, I recently got a bunch of new stuff that nobody probably cares about (gulliver boy, to compare to the saturn version! etc), but also in going through my collection I noticed I had a sealed copy of Violent Soldier. Why do I have that? Why is it sealed? Where did I get it from? I don't remember any of it.

does that ever happen to you all?

If you're curious, they were apparently trying to sell it for 6,500 yen new. It also had a newer updated sticker that said 1,000 yen. The poor thing.
