@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

That, what was your first emulation experience?

For me it was Nesticle and Genecyst. Back in summer 98, I was talking to a long time friend on the phone and he told me he had NES and Genesis games on his 486.

I was like "no way dude, that's not possible". I paid him a visit a couple days later, he fired up the emulator and I was like "no way, this is not happening, pinche me, I must be dreaming".
I came back home with the "starter pack" (bunch of floppies) he gave me, copied everything, fired up Genecyst and I was still like "no way".

Back then, the cool thing was having and playing all these games on the computer, saving shelf space  and money.

I never would have thought I'd feel nostalgic for the original hardware. Today, I feel nostalgic for both.

Off-Topic / Win98 on "real hardware"
04/08/2014, 10:54 AM
Just curious, how many of you still use good ol' Win98 on real hardware? at least from time to time.

What do you use it for?

I use the old PC mostly to slowly burn stuff with the Liteon burner. I found the old lpt scanner which still works nicely and found an office xp disc, so it can be used for some productivity too  O:)

Sometimes I like to relieve the good old times with 4x4 Evo, Monter Truck Madness, Flight Simulator 98, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, etc using my Gravis gamepad pro (remember those?)

We have a winner. Punkic, please PM your mailing addy.

-----------------

My second GOY huey was also defective. As soon as our friend Gameofyou confirms it's working again, I'll conduct the raffle and ask him to ship it to the winner.

They should should not exist, just read the reviews, watch the videos, spend time and judge for yourself.

As a result games would be better, there won't be a need to water down anything.

I was cleaning up my room and found this retro-article (circa 2001) in one of my magazines. It talks briefly about the Turbo Express, how good (and expensive) it was and how this guy sold it to buy a car.

General Gaming / Sega CDX advice
07/25/2012, 02:03 PM
So I have this Sega CDX with disc reading issues.

Looks like it has trouble moving the lens when jumping to a different track.

What I typically do before playing is I fire up the CD player and play audio sequentially (random play won't work). After about 30 mins of "warming up" the unit, then I can play (well, sometimes, depends on the game).

Do you think it's just a lubrication problem?

Thanks.

Is it possible to play music directly from CD games?

Is Salamander a common game?

Hi, I just got a Duo R system and I'm looking to expand my collection (I currently have 6 HuCards and 2 CDs). I can spend about $100 more on games. Platform, Shoot 'em up and Beat 'em up preferred. I'm not looking at getting anything fancy, the more fun I can get for the $ the better  :)

Thanks.
#31
Hi everyone, For sometime I wasn't sure if I wanted to collect for the TG16 / PCE (NES / Genesis veteran). After watching some Turboviews, I decided to get me a system.

After some research I went with a region modded Duo-R. It arrived on Friday along with Bomberman 93, Kaizō Chōjin Shubibinman,  Parodius (can't stop playing that one), Galaga 88, Wonderboy 3, Nekketsu Kōkō Dodgeball Bu: Soccer Hen and Keith Courage.

Overall, I love my new system, my only complain would be the controller cable is too short, which takes me to my first question

Will this cable work as an extension?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002J1SIM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

If not, what would you recommend?

What would you recommend as a spare controller?

For my final question, What games would you recommend that fit a (give or take) $100 budget?

I'm a newbie in the PCE world and I already feel passion for the system (I'm not getting Magical Chase though, haha)

Thanks.
