BTD:
This is pretty damn cool if I do say so myself.
I imagine most of you guys know what this is.
Turn your PC-98 computer into a PCFX.
This has the ability and software to create your own pcfx games.
$150

It's a nice un-boxing video that shows the package contents, but he's not very accurate on the actual details, i.e. it really wasn't a popular board at all.
When I was looking a couple of years ago, they weren't that uncommon on Yahoo Japan, even in brand-new condition (IIRC there was a large stock of unsold units).
The specs on the box show the minimum specs for the PC-9801/PC-9821 computer that you plug it into, for a start.
So ... you need a late-generation Japanese NEC PC-9801, or a PC-9821 computer (not an IBM PC).
Unless you've got one of those, which are pretty darned expensive in the USA, it's just a big paper-weight.
The PC-FXGA DOS/V (green box) is the ISA-card version of the same thing that plugs into an old IBM PC-compatible (with approx the same specs).

Maybe I incorrectly assumed I didn't have to explain what this is... Here of all places.
I don't think anyone here is a stranger to odd Japanese hardware.
Sounds like it's not for you, but don't threadcrap calling it a paperweight.
