Compile DiscStation for PCE???

When looking for information about Compile games for PC Engine, I found several (Japanese) forums & sites (see: http://pp-museum.org/PPM/history/dshistory.html) that mention that the Compile DiscStation series also exist for the PC Engine! That is incredible, because I loved them on MSX. I don't know if you know the concept of a DiscStation, but usualy it's a disc full of little games, text interviews, stories, visuals, game demo's etc. Some MSX editions even had a complete game on a second disc (for example Aleste Gaiden or RuneMaster)

But I haven't seen any real evidence of the existence of these Compile gems. Does anybody have more information on this? Or maybe a copy for sale?

I like to see some hard evidence on this, I doubt this is true. When Compile had their website online, they listed all the different DS releases. Afaik Compile's DS series was released on three platforms: MSX, NEC PC-98, and MS Windows 95.

Perhaps the author of the website got confused with NEC PC-98 with the NEC PC-Engine.
