TG-16/TE/TurboDuo Discussion / Re: Game of the Month: April 2025 - Dynastic Hero

I'm surprised that you saw it at a Babbages! I'm positive this is one of the games that I had to special order at the little game shop across the street from my high school. And that's considering that relatively speaking things were good in my area for Turbo stuff!

Love this game & its soundtrack! I do feel like it's kind of a quick port outside of the music and a cinemas. Maybe I'm erong, but I feel like most or all of the parallax could have been done with no problem, especially with it being this late of a release. It's not overloaded with tons of sprites on screen or anything so it's a shame that they didn't pull a few tricks. Also wish I had the wavy effect on the hearths.

Also would have been nice if they would have done more with the colors, leaning into the TG's strengths. Maybe a few more cinemas dispersed throughout would have been cool.

1)  Sorry, I don't know pricing any more
2)  I'm not a PVM user, but I think I'd go for krizz's RGB mod thing that plugs into the expansion port (see #3)
3)  If I were getting a TG-16 or PCE (non-CD system), I'd have to snag an everdrive pro to play roms and isos, and using #2 for the stereo CD out.  You'll also need a tap and extra controller(s) if you have friend(s) that'll game with you.  Finally, I love my bluetoof adapter thing and 3bitdo wireless pad.
4)  What PD said.  Also, if you're playing off the everdrive pro, I think that'll handle whatever syscard needs or hucard region issues.

I haven't played the genesis wonder boy since it was first released. I prefer Dynastic Hero cause I love the music. Plus it's on the Duo. Lol! Been playing a good bit. Already at the Sphinx answering all the questions wrong. Lol!

Ugh, y'all sound like dirty FEKA agents.  :cook:

I dig Dynastic Hero, as it's cute, colorful, and a fun and fair challenge.  It's just too bad I didn't snag a copy back in the TZD days for cheaps.  Nowadays, I'll settle for ze free bootie.

The only question of those that I can answer is the compatibility with pce games. CD games have no region protection, HuCards DO have region protection. CD games however of course require different system cards depending on if a game is a standard CD or super CD or arcade CD.

There are a few anomalies. Bonanza Brothers for instance will only work with a Japanese super System card, it will NOT work with the US Super System card!. Generally speaking the arcade card will play everything. However at least Altered Beast will not work properly unless using the original 1.0 card. I'm not aware of any other games that have that same problem though.

There might be one other super CD game that requires the Japanese Super System card, I believe that game is Alshark. In a nutshell, getting the correct arcade card will play everything except Altered Beast. But you will need an adapter or region switch mod to use an arcade card. And there are two different types of arcade cards, the arcade card Duo which works with the Duo systems, and the arcade card Pro which is what you would need, along with an adapter, to play on your TG-cd

How much should an unboxed system cost?
What is the best way to hook one up to a PVM?
Are there any must have peripherals, or upgrades?
What is compatibility with PC-E games like?

What a great game to feature during Springtime. A warm, green and breezy season just like this game. As an aside I actually prefer the Genesis version with its parallax and chiptune soundtrack.

great game! i played the genesis one first years ago before the pce version, so it was unfortunate to see the graphical downgrades, particularly the ocean stage. some of the new OST like the beach/tropical area was an improvement, but i don't really remember the genesis OST being noteworthy.
final boss wasn't nearly as frustrating though

pc engine version of dragon trap is still my favorite in the series. i would love to play a translated Blood Gear at some point.
