Ever pick up games for other systems that were already on the Turbo or PC-E?
« on: February 01, 2012, 01:46:31 PM »
I was going through a box full of Sega Genesis carts the other day for Arkhan and found a few games I didn't remember picking up that are also in the TG16 game library and even a few that are in the PC-Engine library.

Valis III
Air Buster (Aero Blaster)
Cadash

Truxton (Tatsujin?)
Strider
Altered Beast (Jouki)
Fatal Fury 2

Anyone Else?

I have played a few imposter TG games.  Bonk on SNES was okay, and so was Dragon's Fury on the Genny.

Altered Beast and Strider are way better on Genesis. The rest of that stuff though...PCE all the way.

I agree with you to a point but, have you ever noticed that if you took the sprites from the PC-Engine version of Altered Beast and put them with the backgrounds of the Genesis version, it would be more accurate to the arcade version?

No, but I did notice that any version of Altered Beast sucks.

Yeah, a lot of the SEGA ports. I've got Tatsujin and Strider for the Megadrive. The HuCard version of Tatsujin is always so expensive when I see it...

I do this a lot, just to compare and to verify myself that the PCE is superior :D

Not so the case for later 32-Bit ports, like the sega ages etc. which sure beat the hell out of any of the 16-Bit ports of those kind of games.

The PS2 series is up and down, but generally really really good. The Wonderboy one is particularly great, as is the Virtua On one.

I'm kinda torn between picking up the PCE or SFC version of Shin-MegamiTensei. I'm currently playing through the I&II remake on the SFC, which is pretty good. I would definitely get the PCE SMT1, except that SMT2 is only on SFC... I guess I should just get them all on the same system, unless the PCE one is superior in some way.

I have Aero Blasters and Air Buster on Genesis, I have Daimakaimura and Ghouls N Ghosts on Genesis, I have Exile on TGCD and Genesis. I have Klax on NES and TG16. So yeah there's quite a few instances of this.

I there are a lot that I have either one or the other especially when it comes to the Megadrive versions. Forgotten Worlds come to mind. Is the PCE version worth getting as well? Don't really play it much on the Megadrive, it's just around for some 2-player action.

I've played a few of the multi-platform titles, but I've never owned any of 'em (I don't have any other systems).  The closest I can get is Dracula X and the Ys games on the PSP, but that's a different kettle of fish.

The PCE version looks waaaaay better than the Genny version, but you'll give up the second player.
