[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Why a "Run" button?]

Not so much the button itself, having a dedicated pause and menu button is always good *looks shamefully at the Sega Master System*, but why a word like "Run"? Is it a weird translation? Just an English word that sounded good to the guys at Hudson Soft? Or did NEC use it because home computer people "Run" programs?

Because this is Turbo, so a WALK button would not be sufficient. 


Yeah, I am late to the game...as usual....   

That is a great dad joke, but someone already made it. Alas!

Laziness somewhat subsided.

Dude, you gotta trim that thumbnail. You'll put someone's eye out!

Also, nice protocard you got there.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / FT for PCE stuff: Axelay, 7th Saga, anime/game music CDs]

So, I've basically copied most of my BST thread from another forum and removed prices. This is all stuff for trade only for PCE goods.
I'm only interested in JPN HuCards because I don't have any CD hardware at this time, though if you want to trade me some CD hardware I'd be cool with that. You can see my collection at PCE Daisakusen via the link in my sig at the bottom. I am not picky about case and manual. Loosies and dupes are fine. I am big on shooters.

My really wants are:
Gunhed and PC Genjin 2
6-button controller

On to this list of stuff I have for trade:

Playstation
Vagrant Story
Disc, Square demo disc, case, no manual.

Genesis:
Aladdin
Cart only. Some stickers and sticker residue. Label worn. Could use a little cleaning.

Saturn - JPN:
Blue Breaker
CIB w/ spine card, registration card. Attractive 2D RPG.

Touge King the Spirits 2
CIB. Mountain driving game.

Roommate in Summer Vacation
CIB w/ spine card, registration card, 3 scene cards.

SNES:
Axelay
Cart only. In good shape. Slight yellowing on back half. Label clean and nice. "Lee Taylor" written in black marker across bottom of front.

The 7th Saga
Cart only. Label intact. Price sticker across back label. Minor cleaning needed.

Windows/PC:
Riven
Unreal Gold
Unreal Tournament: GOTY
Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2
Soldier of Fortune

Manga:
Gunsmith Cats Burst, vol. 3, new in shrinkwrap, US Darkhorse release
Rurouni Kenshin, Japanese language, tankobon v. 1 & 11

VHS (yup, you read that right) (would prefer not to split them up)
Dreamcast promotional videos distributed at the Tokyo Game Show Spring of 1999, discussing the Dreamcast with video of upcoming software releases. Excellent stuff for a Dreamcast enthusiast or collector. One of the videos has a small crack in the plastic but it isn't especially noticeable and doesn't affect the operation of the the video cassette at all. See pictures below for more details. I should also note that I got these in person at the Spring TGS 1999. I was in Japan studying and picked these up with a lot of other swag (which may eventually turn up here). A lot of what's documented on this video was stuff that was being shown at that TGS for the first time.

Anime and video game music CDs (all legit JPN releases, include cases and booklets - No SM releases!)
Fatal Fury the Motion Picture BGM collection
Samurai Spirits Image Album
X original soundtrack
Samurai Spirits III Arrange Sound Trax
Animax Animation Hits Collection by Meu
Patlabor 2 Movie soundtrack

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Neutopia JPN HuCard only for trade]

I have a JPN copy of Neutopia, HuCard only. I've beaten it. I'm unlikely to come back to it. So I'd like to trade it to someone for another JPN HuCard. I'm pretty open where offers are concerned. Best HuCard (thoroughly subject, based off what I think) offered in trade takes it. I do like shooters and platformers...

And yes, I know the photo sucks. I took it with an iPod Touch, which has a crappy camera.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: PCE shooters have lost their magic for me...]

How's this for hori ship design?  I just made it for a bit of fun. 

Very nice, but where are the guns? Does the pilot just shoot through the cockpit?

[Localizations, Games, Apps, Docs / Re: Jungle Bros.]

I like the character designs and animation. If the game features frogs, I suppose you probably have bats as well? Bats.

Theres caves.... theres bats 

Do any of them turn into vampires?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Prospect of Making Some OMG RAREZ! Game Boots]

BTW, when making the artwork for this...there is a high quality scan from a Satoshi Urushihara art book you could use. It doesn't have the logo, but its a lot less compressed and grainy that other stuff I've seen.

That can't be Urushihara! Her breasts aren't the size of zepplins!  ; )

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Raiden...]

Raiden may not have broken any molds in gameplay, but it was one of the more graphically intense shooters of the time, what with tanks leaving scars on the land...

 

Destroying a stationary object and having it leave a mark is different in my mind than having moving objects that leave a trace.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: PC Engine Screen-shot quiz]

and it IS!!

This inspired me to play this game last night. I got to this boss fully powered up with a full health bar and he simply ran me over and killed me. Youch.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: PCE, SNES and Genesis, screen comparison.]

Why is Bobbin Threadbare attacking Princess Varna?!?

He's not attacking her, he's just waving hello.

And she's having nothing of it. She's just looking away, ignoring him. Considering a dis of that magnitude it's no wonder it turns into a boss fight.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Not another screenshot quiz...]

OK, here it is:



Dig in.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Not another screenshot quiz...]

OK, I do believe I'm skirting the obscure, here, but good luck to everyone anyway!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: PC Engine Screen-shot quiz]

OK. I'm sure someone will get this relatively easily, but I hope not
