10/31/2023: Localization News - Dead of the Brain 1!

No, NOT a trick, a Halloween treat! Presenting the Dead of the Brain 1 English patch by David Shadoff for the DEAD last official PC Engine CD game published by NEC before exiting the console biz in 1999! I helped edit/betatest and it's also a game I actually finished in 2023, yaaay! Shubibiman also did a French localization. github.com/dshadoff/DeadoftheBrain

I really hate seeing this, even though they've been in trouble for a while. I have so many fond memories of trips to ToysRUs, and standing mesmerized by their wall of games for all systems. Best selection anywhere.

General Gaming / Neverwinter PS4 Players?
08/21/2016, 09:21 PM
I started playing Neverwinter this weekend, and I'm hooked. This is the most I've ever played my ps4, and this is the best D&D game I've played in a long time.

Wouldn't mind having some regulars to play with. If you're interested, give me a shout.

Off-Topic / Tire Question
05/28/2016, 02:21 PM
Anyone know why my car dealership sets my tire pressure 2 psi lower on the left side than the right?

When I bought my truck the pressure was 34 right/32 left. After having it serviced today which included tire servicing, it's 36 right/34 left.

I've always set all my tires to the same pressure.

Most of you have probably figured this out by now, especially if you are using tippity-tapatalk, but I am the reincarnation of Toymachine78.

Yawn..... Go back to your normal lives.

Edit: I missed you guys too much. I couldn't stay away. Good peeps here, and good discussion. No matter what the nay-sayers say

PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Greetings
04/15/2016, 05:29 PM
Greetings forumites! Long time TG16/PCE gamer here looking for a place to call home on the interwebs.

I hear this is the place to be for insider deals, free shit, and general forum leeching. I kid I kid....

Seriously though, Just a software engineer from down south that got back into the retro scene several years ago after finding my old consoles at my parents house. I have a huge love for the TG16 and PCE, and can't wait to talk shop.

I frequented forums in the past, but got fed up with the drama and politics, so I gave it a break for a while. I decided to see what's out there again and found this place. Looks like a great community with lots of info and love for the NEC consoles. Thanks for having me!

We've had 11 straight days of rain, and 20inches alone this weekend. I've never seen anything like this.

So somehow my Ys 3 save was deleted. Probably when I was screwing around with Drac X the night it wasn't working. I blame it on Bulleit Bourbon. Anyhoo... I just started the last island where its all dark and you fight all the skeletons.

Does anyone have a comparable password for this part!?!?  I searched forums... No luck... Googled no luck... :-(

Dudes, mens, guys.... My Dracula X is freezing up at the same point every time. I've cleaned it normally, and with disk repair solution. Still bullshit... Grrrr... First time its done this. Any idears?

General Gaming / SNK Neo Chip Question
11/10/2014, 10:06 PM
Anybody know what a SNK PCM chip handles? Its on board 1.

I'm asking 'cause I bought Real Bout FF Special from eBay. When I first put the game in, it would play the NG splash screen but then threw an exception/Abend.

I opened the game to compare the boards to MVS scans and board one looks abused. The chips are scratched, a couple of traces are gouged, and the PCM chip on board 1 has 3 legs that are crushed and almost look like they may be touching. On top of that the boards do not match the scans. It looks like the boards are from 2 diff sets of scans, or they are mismatched.

Anyhoo, I plugged the game back in to get a shot of the error dump screen, but it booted this time. However the sound is scratchy and distorted. It seems the BG music plays fine, but scratches and cuts out with the sound effects.

Any ideas? I'm gonna contact the seller either way for refund, but he states no returns accepted, so wanted some more info before contacting him.

General Gaming / AES or MVS?
08/31/2014, 10:16 PM
Thinking about taking the Neo Geo plunge. Like Joe says.... What good is money? Lol

I'm on the fence though... What is the best option? The AES hardware and software is expensive. I can get a sweet 4 Slot MVS cabinet locally for $900. And a consolized MVS is more expensive than the AES hardware, yet the games are cheaper...

What us the best way to enter the neo geo scene? I even considered the neo geo X.... Ewweeeee....

Anyone else play this? Its a great game and looks gorgeous with great cut scenes.

I'm surprised I haven't heard anything about it here. There isn't much on gamefaqs or PCE Bible either.

Great game though. I recommend! 8)

Buy/Sell/Trade / Price Check on TG16/CD
03/24/2014, 09:06 AM
What do yo guys feel is a fair price for a fully functioning TG16 and CD unit that is in great shape? No mods, unit is standard. The CDROM2 Was serviced by Keith Courage and works great. This would also include a Super System Card CIC, and the hardshell carrying case.

I want to get a unit like the one Bernie just sold, but will need to sell my original first.

Does anyone have links to the Mega Man 1 and 2 ROMs for the TurboGrafx? These were reviewed on the Game Sack Homebrew episode.

I can't seem to find them though.
