Hi everyone,
I've meant to do that for a long time and I've finally started to add game manual scans to my site. Only a few are available so far (1943-Kai (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?194), Adventure Island (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?adv), Fushigi No Yumi No Alice (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?ali), Armed Formation F (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?arf) ,Sapphire (http://www.videogameden.com/cdrom.htm?sap)) but I'll keep adding a lot more in the near future. They are all located in the Omake section from each review page, at the bottom. Do not hesitate to let me know what you think and also if there's a list of games you'd like to see first - I'm going now in whatever order my list of scans dictates me to go :)
-
Added more manuals:
Aeroblaster (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?aer)
Appare! Gateball (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?aga)
Bomberman (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?bom)
Download (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?dwn)
R-Type II (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?rt2)
Do you like the actual format of the PDF files ? Any feedback ? :)
-
Manuals are a dang nice addition to your site, though I'd rather see the front and back covers separated so that the back cover is the last page in the pdf.

I initially had them this way but it was a lot more work so I kept it simple with a 'douple page' format... I think is is also the format used by other sites such as replacementdocs... so I could change it but it'll be more work :(
-
I started this on my site but kind of fell behind with it, I'm glad someone else is picking up the challenge!

This is a challenge indeed but I've been scanning all my games for the past years and they have been sitting dormant on my hard drive... so time to get all those Gigs in the wild !!!
I know exactly what you mean Paul, our sites are now gigantor monsters and it is really easy to fall behind, I still have sooooo much info and goodies I'd like to add in mine but I just don't have the time to do all of it :)
-
Just back from vacations and back in business. Have updated a couple of pages and added more game documentations:
Makai Prince Dorabocchan (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?sod)
Kiki KaiKai (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?kik)
Mizubaku Daibōken (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?lik)
Fantasy Zone (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?faz)
R-Type I (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?rt1)

I wondered for some time why Sapphire was part of such collection and the answer is rather simple - they both share the same character designer, Mika Akitaka.
A wiki article states that the creator/artist was original working on Yuna as a shooter, but later the project was changed to a visual novel. One could assume Sapphire filled that void.

alexsduo, do you mean from the PDFs I have posted or in general ?
The process I use to scan and store my scans sadly wipes out the print format information from the files... however, if I remember well, PC Engine manuals are 24x12 cms (I'd need to verify that though but they look similar to standard CDs) so it's probably easy to tell the printer/software to print at that size. I'm not sure if my PDFs have enough resolution though - I'm still experimenting with this and I'll probably have to increase the resolution even more in the future...
But I've never printed out manuals myself so I'm not sure what would be the best way to do double sided prints that'd be thin enough to fit in CD cases...
-
Hmmm, yepp.. I have a military madness cd game case with game, and it is missing the manual... So I tried to find it online, and did.. But, when I printed it, it was huge! It would not work to go in the case... However, I found a version of silent debuggers, and when that printed, it was exact, and I fit it in the cd case.... The quality is really good, and if it were on glossy, it may be a good substitute.... I would love to see a place that has them all...

You just need the right software to be able to place/resize it. Or the PDF needs to have the resolution set correctly when it is originally saved.

haha. These games make me laugh. I can't say I'm going to pick them up any time soon, but who knows?
I did notice a typo in the Ai Chō Aniki write-up, though. "Are there here to avenge their original owners_?"
Might as well offer editing services as I read the reviews. heh :mrgreen:
-
Yeah, the Chō Aniki series is pretty 'unreal' - I recently got the Playstation game and this one surely tops all the others by far. I personnaly really like the first two games, especially the first one. The mechanical designs are incredible.
Thanks for pointing out the typo, I really appreciate it - English is not my native language so editing services are mooooore than welcome :wink:

Yeah, I love this little game. The lack of "3D" is a bit of a shame but the arcade can be difficult to play because of it (controls are not aligned with the action).

Is there a stage order error in the original game ? I didn't know about this. :shock:
-
No, but in the manual. Check yours. The pictures from stage 1, 2 & 3 are mixed up with those from stage 4, 5 & 6 :)
-
You're totally right !!! I've probably looked at this manual hundreds of time and never realized they put the pics in the wrong order #-o... nice find !!

Nice screenshots of Tatsujin! Interesting write-ups too. Sounds like this one really is crazy difficult. She goes for a pretty penny though, doesn't she?
Good to know that this shootie has a slim/arcade screen mode. I'll add that to the list. I wonder how many more games have the hidden option. :-k http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=4934.0

Great information! I have listed a new comment on that thread, relating to whether the image dimensions are actually increased as we know resultion to be measured (like on a camera) as opposed to simpy redrawing the image - I will test on an emulator.
-
Waooo, Ceti, this is a great thread !!! I've always wondered why the option was hidden away in most of the games... it is, I think, an amazing feature that should be included in ALL option menus :)
As far as I noticed, the arcade mode on Tatsujin seems to give more breathing space with identical sprites, so they (I think) use the Hires mode. I'll let you know if I know of any other games not listed on your awesome thread.
Thanks for posting the update!
Y'welcome ;)

New review and manual:
War of the Dead - PC Engine (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?wod)
I'm really excited about this one. I've always been attracted by War of the Dead but the password system just killed the experience. This review was a lot of work but it allowed me to unearth a really enjoyable (yet dated) role playing game.
Nb. Sorry Ceti, no arcade mode in this one :wink:

Typo in the write-up. It says FM Town instead of FM Towns.
Otherwise great stuff, keep it coming.
-
Thanks Paul for the heads-up, just fixed it :)
I've also added a note about Shadow of the Beast frustrating dead-ends. Although this PCE port is better (and easier) than the original Amiga version, they've still included a couple of really annoying dead ends - I mean, you can get stuck if you don't pick up the correct items and you can't even backtrack to previous areas to retrieve them... that's poor game design...
-
Yeah, Beast is not a great game on any format, but the music makes up a lot for that.

PC Genjin - PC Engine (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?pk1)
-
Cool! :)
The history of PC Genjin you provided was great. I keep forgetting about that arcade game, too. What were the tickets it dispensed all about?
Just a couple of minor grammar edits:
"The game tells the story of a young and cute primitive caveman, whose is on a long journey to dethrone the demonic lizard king."
---Just change whose to who.
"His only weapon is his big and bald head, he can either hit his opponents with a simple head-kick or jump in the air and dive down, head first, to smash them."
---I would change big and bald head to big bald head.
---The comma before "he" could either be replaced with a period, or you could insert a semi-colon there as well:
Examples:
- "His only weapon is his big bald head. He can either hit his opponents with a simple head-kick or jump in the air and dive down, head first, to smash them."
or
- "His only weapon is his big bald head; he can either hit his opponents with a simple head-kick or jump in the air and dive down, head first, to smash them."
or
- "His only weapon is his big bald head that can be used to either hit his opponents with a simple head-kick, or by jumping up in the air and then diving down, head first, to smash them."
Any one of those options should work. Hope I was more helpful than annoying. :lol:
Keep up the goodness! :mrgreen:

Wonderboy III Monster Lair - PC Engine (http://www.videogameden.com/cdrom.htm?wo3)
As a side note, I've included a new ad for Monster Lair (in the Omake section) that uses a different illustration than the final release of the game ! It features 'older characters', this is an interesting find I think, Hudson probably decided to make them look 'cuter' before release to attract a larger audience or something...
-
That alternate ad is really interesting, I don't think I've seen that before - the cuter characters that they used later are a better match for the game graphics.
-
Great updates, Ikermel. :)
I have a couple editing notes for ya, too. For now, just on the Monster Lair write up:
I could only spot a couple minor mistakes:
- The legendary amour and weapons of valor have been stolen and the thieves have vanished without a trace. Just when all hopes appear to be lost,
You just forgot the "r" in armour, and I believe it should read "Just when all hope appears to be lost,..."
I'll keep adding more edits as I go through them. I'm just on a major Wonderboy kick right now and read that one right away. heh
-
@sunteam_paul
Yeah, I really like this alternate ad, but I also think the cuter characters fit the game a lot better - I found it in a Gekkan from August 1989, which is exactly when Monster Lair was released :)
@ceti alpha
Thanks mate ! I really appreciate your edits, as always. A Wonderboy kick ? Are you going through all the Monster World as well ?

Update and manual:
Tora e no Michi (Tiger Road) - PC Engine (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?tir)
yo !
-
Very minor edits. :)
1. ...and a student of the Oh-Lin school of martial arts - Add the "s" to art.
2. One day, the warriors of the Dragon God went... - Add "e" to On.
3. The bald and axe-swinging monk doesn't have much choice; he must now go through five long areas, and save the children and reclaim the Oh-Lin scrolls. - Just added a semicolon between "choice and he". Added "and" before save.
4. Lee comes equipped with an axe - a weapon of limited range and accuracy. - Just added a dash, instead of the comma. They're two independent clauses and the dash serves as a stronger punctuation.
5. Other special items are also available for the taking - Health Bottles, Invincibility Crystal Balls, Lives, keys (to unlock spedial doors) or Capcom's trademark POW icon - which upgrades Lee's current weapon. - There were a lot of commas, so I just separated the weapon list from the sentence with a couple of dashes.
----------
Some of the reviews I read about this game say the collision detection in this game is absolutely terrible. But there's just something about this game. I remember it from the arcade and I'd like to see how the TG/PCE fairs.
Thanks for the uploads, Ikermel. :)
-
Thanks a lot for the edits Ceti ! :D
-
Thanks a lot for the edits Ceti ! :D
No problem. :)
But don't thank me too soon. I actually noticed an error in one of my edit suggestions. :-" :lol:
3. The bald and axe-swinging monk doesn't have much choice; he must now go through five long areas, and save the children and reclaim the Oh-Lin scrolls. - Just added a semicolon between "choice and he". Added "and" before save.
That "and" before "save the children" is not needed. You can keep the comma, but remove the "and".
So here is what it should read like:
3. The bald and axe-swinging monk doesn't have much choice; he must now go through five long areas, save the children and reclaim the Oh-Lin scrolls.
Sorry for the confusion, Ikermel. :oops: :lol:

Cool review. I love the CD art with the galaxy print. Very nice.
Oh, and there's only one thing I spotted:
- The power-suits allow them to deal a lot more damage and also grant then (them) new fighting abilities, such as the super-speed dash or the lightning-bolt punch.
Just a minor typo. :)
-
Sorry for the late reply guys, I've been working on the Famicom section but more PCE game should come soom.
@ ceti alpha
Thanks mate, I'll fix that typo asap ! I quite like the Galaxy art too :)
@ Necromancer
Thanks ! I'm glad to see that superpcenginegrafx is back ! I'll fix all the links.

PS: Do you have a scan of the pc-engine system manual /user guide, I had it, but sadly it mysteriously dissapeared... :)
-
Thanks Tornados :) - I most probably have the PC Engine system manual somewhere, I'll have to dig this out (sadly, most of my collection is not currently with me). But I'll scan it as soon as I find it.
New update and manual:
Deep Blue - PC Engine (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?deb)

I've just been chatting to someone on email about the very same thing. It would be great if you could put one up somewhere - I'm going to add the Duo-RX manual to my site soon.

Hi lkermel
If you want a hand with manual scanning let me know and I will help out.
Love videogameden by the way :-)
Cheers
Lee.

@Paul
I love the section Omake you added to your site ! I'll try to look for the manual this week end and will let you know if I find something...
@SuperPlay
Thanks mate ! I always really appreciate feedback about the site, it's often difficult to figure out if all the work we put into these sites is appreciated or not, so thanks a lot :)
Thanks for your offer too - scanning is actually not really an issue for me (I've been scanning my games for years and I have Gigs of data on my drive already), it's formatting the whole thing and updating the pages that takes time. This is why I've decided to do a couple of games a week - at this rate it'll probably take me 10 years, but I have zillions of other projects on the side, and I can only work on the site on Sundays. A step at the time is better than not steps at all though ;)

Great updates, Ikermel! Looks good! You must be doing some double checking before posting. lol :)

He he he :) - I now try to triple check everything I post on the site (this is why I've been going through so many updates recently, to fix up some of my old reviews which are full of spelling mistakes - as you know, English is not my native language). But even now, things sometimes fall through the cracks - but again, thank you so much for your help mate !! :)

Your page on Space Harrier says it was programmed by DEMPA. Where did you get this information? DEMPA isn't credited on the title screen or in the manual (which doesn't mean a great deal, considering Compile is responsible for a great many games they weren't credited for), and I've beat the game many times and I don't recall seeing them credited in the credit scroll, either, but maybe I just missed it.
Anyway, I was always under the impression NEC Avenue handled the port. If you have information to the contrary, I'd love to see it. :)
-
DEMPA was responsible for the x86k version. never heard that they did also the pce port. but one thing they have in common at least, both lacking the checkerboard playfield.

I think they are mentioned in the credit scroll at the end of the game if I remember well... I'll dig out and post a snapshot this evening :)
-
(http://www.videogameden.com/misc/spaceharrier.jpg)
Here it is. That's a snapshot I took from the Japanese version's end credits. I was also really surprised the first time I saw Dempa in there. I've always assumed that NEC Avenue programmed the port. And yet, Dempa handled so many other ports of Space Harrier, so it sorts of makes sense...
-
Wow.
I certainly never noticed this. I wonder if the US version is lacking that credit (I only own the US version, not the Japanese version). I wonder if they did the other SuperScaler games as well? Afterburner II, Outrun?
-
That's a good point and I also wonder if the US version has different end credits...
I've never finished Afterburner II and Outrun, maybe I can add them to my to-do list (as well as Thunder Blade). However, both games have 'reprogrammed by NEC Avenue' mentioned on their front cover though, so I have the feeling they were programmed by NEC avenue, but who knows...

I love stuff like this—hopefully we'll be able to figure this out...

I played through U.S. Space Harrier last night to find out. Sure enough, it lists Dempa. I must have always missed it. Weird.

Just found out Afterburner II was done by Bits Laboratory.
They also did Fantasy Zone, both the Altered Beast releases, and Gain Ground SX. I guess they liked doing SEGA ports.
Among the other, non-SEGA ports they did on the system: all 3 original Darius games (not Darius 2), Toilet Kids, Veigues Tactical Gladiator, Hellfire S, Hi-Leg Fantasy, Bubble Bobble 2: Rainbow Islands, Sidearms Special, Space Invaders CD, CD Mahjong, and Splash Lake.
Games they cooperated on: Download, Son Son II, Ai Cho Aniki, and some quiz and gambling games.

Kool info, nat. May I ask the source of info? Ending credits/online resources/interviews/etc. Thanks in advance (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcds.png)
-
Afterburner II and Darius (Plus) say right in the manual (look at the credit pages), and was corroborated by some online resource that I can't find now.
That same resource is where I dug up the others, as well. It was a special page on the works of BITS Laboratory/Laboratories.
I would imagine at least some, if not all, of these games probably also make mention of this in the ending credits.
EDIT: Found it. (http://gdri.smspower.org/wiki/index.php/Bits_Laboratory) Interestingly enough, this page (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Freview-site.net%2Fdt%2Findex.php%2F%25E3%2581%25B2%23.E3.83.93.E3.83.83.E3.83.84.E3.83.A9.E3.83.9C.E3.83.A9.E3.83.88.E3.83.AA.E3.83.BC.EF.BC.88Bits_Laboratory.EF.BC.89) also lists Bubble Bobble 3: Parasol Stars as another title they worked on.

I've also added some information about the medal/key-chain that was given away to the first 500 players who managed to complete the game. Personally, I've never seen one of those, they are probably still in a box somewhere considering how poorly the game sold back in 1991 (I'm assuming...)

-
lkermel—I may have said this years ago, but one of the features of your site that I love = listing a game's credits. I know, I know, these credits are rife with problems, but they are the mandatory starting point and I have often used your site for this information specifically. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)
Of course, I hope you'll find time to write up another feature article on the PCE one of these days....

I love fighting my way to the end of these games in hopes of finding out who created them. I also use this information all the time - this is why, a few years back, I thought that I should really share all of this information with others. I'm glad you find it useful - I'll carry on digging :)

Ah ah! Yes, I went a bit crazy, but I thought that it was time for me to get those games I've always wanted... So I got Terra Cresta II (review coming next), Darius Alpha and the specials I was missing, PC Genjin 3 Taikenban, Bomberman Users Battle and.... The Power League gold HuCard :)

We have no idea if KISAKU is independently wealthy.
At least lkereml has a job and saves up the $$$$$.

-
Yeah, I'm not rich, far from it. Just been saving a lot and decided to finally purchase some of the games I've always wanted - I have to say, I've been collecting for a very very long time, and the feeling of finally touching and owning a copy of Darius Alpha is fairly intense :D

Yeah, it was too late last night to post about this new update, my brain was swimming in jello :wink: I played Lady Sword all the way to the end and added a couple of goodies to the review page, such as a bestiary, I'm still really impressed by the amount of enemies in this game!
@Bardoly
Thanks a lot mate, I really appreciate your awesome feedback! I've been really busy on other personal projects, but I always work on Video Game Den in the background and add new goodies here and there. I wish I had more free time and add new reviews more frequently.... oh well...

Hi everyone!
Here's a new update with more manuals:

Saint Dragon - PC Engine (http://www.videogameden.com/hucard.htm?sdr)
For anyone interested, the Legend of Hero Tonma page also has images for the unreleased Famicom version, including ads - the game was surprisingly not released despite being nearly finished from what I can tell. Enjoy!

Thanks! I would love to see and play the Famicom version of Legend of Hero Tonma. It is such a shame that it was cancelled, because it looked virtually finished... I wonder why Irem decided to can it... the same thing happened with Meikyu Jima, well, the other way around actually, it was released for the Famicom but the PC Engine version was cancelled. So weird...

I know! It must be about $$$ and management either cutting losses or shifting strategies. Do we have any evidence of major personnel (executives) leaving IREM at the time the projects were cancelled?
Of course, it probably has nothing to do with drama like that.
Most likely a simple matter of "will we even break even if we release this?"

Oh, it's you, you have an account here (been here 13 years I see)! I snagged some Final Blaster screenshots from your site some days ago, but had no idea you were a member. Thanks for the updates! :)
You've got a great page format, very informative, pretty, etc. I'll say that, but...one block wall-o-texts need to be broken up into paragraphs though. ;)
