I've always wanted to give this series a shot on PCE but they're all untranslated, and there are few other japanese language rpgs I'd rather tackle first beforehand. hopefully this will be some new attention to the series that will attract translation projects.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Bazaru de Gozaru]

Just finished what i assumed to be the last stage in this game (8-10). What a awesome game, I'm surprised it's not more suggested or talked about even. Great music and graphics, and fun and challenging gameplay if you try to collect all the moneybags. The control of the monkey feels really precise as well. Really charming game, i'd put it up with gekisha boy as some of the best unique games for the system.

I just wanted to ask anyone who has played before if the game just ends after 8-10? There was no credit reel or anything so It feels like I'm missing something.

I saw this link to a review posted in an older thread but I can't seem to access it :

Also seems like it had a pretty significant release in japan with alot of extra goodies and plushies of the  awesome main character. I mean look at this stuff:




thoughts on the game?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: Any Neo geo aes cart for testing new console. maybe a controller too]

Just got an AES console without games or anything. So far it seems to be working (blue screen), but i have no game to test out on it. I'm hoping someone has a double or any old aes game they'd like to get rid of. Let me know what you have and we can work out a deal.

I ordered some stuff for making controllers but that's not going to be here for a bit so I'm open to buying a controller too.

don't really wanna get involved with the neo-geo forums, lol.

here's my new baby:


what's that in the corner?? i got some obey too : ^)

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Burning iso/cue (without wav or mp3)]

I searched around for an answer to this but was coming up short, so was hoping someone might have some experience with this.

I'm having trouble burning working cds for games using iso+cue format , without wav or mp3. I'm using imgburn as burning software. I've tried mounting and imaging to bin+cue, no luck. Also tried mounting > TurboRip to iso/cue/wav > Tocfixer, also with no luck. anyone have an idea what i'm doing wrong?

Feel free to post more commercials subbed or not. neat to see

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Duo Repair Gone Bad, looking for suggestions]

So where to start... for some time now I've become extremely interested in the pc engine. Being a huge fan of the other 4th generation console, the huge amount of exclusive games on the pc engine really drew my interest. So a few months ago I ordered a duo from japan and have been anxiously waiting for it ever since. I also ordered a cap kit and replacement cd laser just incase.

fast forward to a few days ago, the duo arrived. I was ecstatic and plugged it in right away. the controller function was not working 100% and the volume was quiet and the adjustment knob didnt work. So I figured I might as well use the cap kit since it was suggested to do so anyways.

So I clean the board (not very well) with some alcohol and toothbrush and get to work replacing caps and resoldering somethings. Afterwords i go to plug it in. First nothing. Then i start getting a white screen, turning on and off quickly changes colors. From searching i have found this is a common error with a not so common solution. I went back to the board and noticed some of my caps had legs were not connected and I think a leg on one of the ics might have been bridged, it was a few days ago now...

Since then every time I go to fix something, something else ends up getting messed. I'm at my wits end and hoping anyone here can help out

Right now the issue is that the voltage regulator closest to ic 505  is outputting 0.4V, but the voltage regulator itself is working. I've tried two different regulators with the same result and tested them both to be working. Any idea on how this could happen?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / PC Engine music]

Hey all first post here,

I've noticed on alot of other forums/youtube/wherever, people generally praise genesis, snes, and nes soundtracks, but i never see much love for pc engine tunes.

You guys all seem pretty versed in the console library, so I wanted to ask - what do you think are highlights of pc engine soundtracks? Gems and more popular stuff too.
