FM Towns Marty

[COUNT SMRIFNACK]

So I finally got a FM Towns Marty.  I had never played one before or seen one in person.  But I had to have one for....
 

It is a cool as console, I only wish I could read the menus for it.  The game menu stuff is in english but the system itself seems to have alot of stuff in it, which I don't have a clue what it is.  I did manage to set the clock in it

O.k.  So any self respecting Splatterhouse fan has to get one of these.  I played it for the first time today on the Marty at lunch, and it f*cking took me back to 1989 when I played it at our local skating ring/arcade.  This game is so much different than even the PC Engine version, which is great itself.  I can't stop playing it!!

So now, on to the porn.  I have read that there were tons of anime porn put out for the Marty.  So why can't I find any?  Hell, regular games are hard enough to find, but I haven't seen any that are to be considered "dirty" for sale.  WTF?

Anyway, I'm glad I shelled out the money for this system, it has already been worth it.  If anyone here has any FM Towns links or info to contribute, please do.  I can't find a whole lot of web sites with much on this system. 


Looks kinda like an oversized Duo R

  Congrats count.  Looks like you'll be having a lot of fun with it (once you even more games  ).

Yeah, I really don't plan on collecting games for it like the TG/PC Engine though.  They are way overpriced it seems   The guy sent me a stack of CDRs with it but I ain't gonna play them in the Marty.  I'll only check them out with the UNZ emmulator.  For me the price of the system was worth it just for Splatterhouse. 

Oh yeah, the guy also sent me a loose (actual disc not cdr) Raiden Densetsu, which is a vert. scrolling shooter, which isn't too bad.  And this game...

I don't know what it is cause I can't read Japanese and it won't play cause the disk drive belt is busted.

Oh yeah, so if anyone knows where to get disk drive belts for the Marty, please let me know.  Otherwise I'm gonna try to find a rubber band that fits accordingly

Word life.  Splatterhouse for the Marty is uber pimp.

very very ve~~ry nice bro. btw. how much did you pay for the splatter house?
as for the menues, do some screenies and post them in here

[COUNT SMRIFNACK]

I got Splatterhouse for $60, but it was loose.  I just couldn't see paying for a complete Splatterhouse, what I paid for a loose one and the Marty system together.

I will try and take some photos of the menu screen that don't look like the first one here this weekend.  Thanks for the offer to help btw.

nice catch.  the marty is a bitch to collect for.  splatterhouse and viewpoint are two of my faves.  i don't even see a lot of games for it here in japan that much.  they are expensive but the neo geo pricier so there is a limit.  let me know if there is anything in particular yo uare looking for. enjoy

And this game...

I don't know what it is cause I can't read Japanese and it won't play cause the disk drive belt is busted.

I believe that is one of the Nobunaga's ambition games. I can't really read japanese, but two of the kanji match his name.

they're very text heavy, so you probably wouldn't be able to play it even if the drive belt worked. 

Despite that, it's an awesome setup. I'm jealous.

[COUNT SMRIFNACK]

Good tip Guyjin!  It appears the game is Nobunaga's Ambition/ Nobunaga no Yabou.  Now if I could only trade it for some porn

Nice Count!! Nice pic of your console collection too. Very purdy.

That's a sexy looking Marty there, Count. 

Oh yeah, so if anyone knows where to get disk drive belts for the Marty, please let me know.  Otherwise I'm gonna try to find a rubber band that fits accordingly

Rubber bands are usually too stretchy to maintain enough pressure to spin a floppy drive.  I suggest that you figure out the size, then try to get a turntable belt.  You should be able to find one in the same size or even a slightly smaller belt that can be stretched to work.  If all else fails, a few peeps have had some luck using o-rings, though the size has to be almost exact, as they won't stretch much.

[COUNT SMRIFNACK]

O-rings, I hadn't thought of that.  Good input, thanks

[COUNT SMRIFNACK]

O.k. Tat here goes....

This is the main menu in the system itself.


These two (piece them together) are of the menu that appears when you select "exit t-menu" on Splatterhouse's main screen.



This is what comes up when you select the "yeah!" icon.  What's going on here?


Thanks in advance for any translations Tat!

Sweet! Congrats on the system i just got to play one at the Midwest Gaming Classic this year and i thought it was great.

It made me so want to get one but i just dont have the cash for one at this time.

[rolins]

The Marty is a sweet console. I wish I had the money to get one, saint nick knows it been on my xmas list like forever.

Yeah, there are plenty of hentai games but I don't remember playing them much. Two pops into mind though, one was Viper V10 and the other (i can't remember the name) actually is a porn diary game with live actors but its censored. I'll check my backups and see if I can find of that name.
