I know I am late:

...but this was a stab at documenting a piece of the HuVIDEO story.

I would be grateful if folks would correct any technical errors they find...

The Yuna HuVIDEO clip does not contain "all of the cinema scenes from the first PCE game". Since the first game didn't use HuVIDEO that's impossible by definition. Also, its a two minute clip and Yuna 1 has what must be hours of cinemas.

What it contains is a short promo clip that looks like an anime intro with a lot of posing and shooting, then it auto cues at the first frame of a slide show of images from books, magazines, etc. Nothing on this disc was ever in any game that I'm aware of.

I didn't know about the Yuna 2 disc on this list and he doesn't mention it otherwise. Does anyone know where this came from? This is the first I've heard of it.

Aha!

Thanks for clarifying about the contents of that Yuna disc.

:)

The Yuna 2 disc is from the old thread (s) here at pcefx, IIRC.

I wrote these pages a few years ago, so it must be 2-4 years? (Or something like that).

...if that helps searching the forums. 


:)

Personally, I want to find out more about that internal Hudson demo with the Dr. Mario clone!

Oh well...

The promos and commercials for the first Yuna game used the same animation cuts that ended up in the Yuna HuVIDEO disc, here I found a couple of examples:

There used to be another CM on YouTube that also used these animation cuts but I can't seem to find it anymore... Oh well...

Some (all?) of the art stills were reused for the intermission screens in Yuna 2.

So discussion came up elsewhere about the Bad Apple video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkgK8eUdpAo&fmt=22

Which has been covered or converted in some way to run on a lot of different hardware:
Mega Drive/Genesis
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vPe452cegU

SNES
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASUsvXTNgIg

And it goes on and on in YouTube, but there is no PC-Engine or Turbo version. 


Anyway, any chance someone with superior coding chops (maybe Bonknuts or someone else who understands how) could convert it to HuVideo?  A ground up version like the one Steph did for the MegaDrive would be cool, but I get the feeling that a HuVideo version would at least be a neat novelty as well.

I'd be impressed, and that's enough...

This is a very personal opinion, but ugh, I REALLY don't like this Bad Apple remix, it doesn't even begin to compare with the original song on the PC-98, and that's because the original song is one of my least favourite ones on the PC-98 games...

That is why it'd have to be done on a HuCard, like the Genesis ROM, rather than a SegaCD. It seems like the point of these remixes is to see what can be done with the limitations, and a CD with redbook audio isn't very limiting.

It is when you voluntarily pick a goofy subset of devices to produce the music !
