Space Patrol Luluco lays a sick burn on the PC-FX!

How dare they call it worthless garbage! But at least they're rethinking it.

Man, I can't believe I just saw a PC-FX reference in a 2016 anime. What a time to be alive, haha.

-We Blackholeians have shoplifted all kinds of things that hold value.
But because we shoplifted too many valuable things, we instead
ended up wondering if worthless garbage was actually more valuable.

-Huh? We made light of this stuff until now, but maybe it's actually amazing!

I want a coffee maker that resembles a PC-FX, also a cookie jar, also a regular jar for regular things, that aren't cookies, like sugar cookies. Cookies. I'm hungry. Thank you.

Cookies.

Also: I have never heard of Space Patrol Luluco before.

Looks like I have some exploring to do.

Also: Cookies.

That's so cool to see, thank for posting it! 

Now I'm going to have to watch the anime.

It's a bonkers short-format anime (like 7-8 minutes for each episode) by studio Trigger that's loaded with references to other Trigger anime, which are lost on me because I haven't seen much of their catalog, but of course I catch the PC-FX reference, haha. It's got no connections to video games otherwise.

If you guys wanna check it out, the show is up on Crunchyroll and you can watch for free (as long as the episodes are over a week old, otherwise you gotta wait or pony up for the premium service).

A fascinating idea/s. Make it so.

I wish, I was born with tentacles. Clumsy, clumsy tentacles...

Sounds accurate.  Most peeps think it's nothing but a fmv dating sim box but are willing to give it a try..... and find out they were wrong.


It's only 80% fmv dating sims, tops.

Admin Action: I noticed the image capturing this PC-FX anime reference was lost/deleted, so I took a research excursion to find out what Aggie was talking about, restore the image, or even better, make an animation .avif. I downloaded 13 subtitles of this (there were only 13 episodes) and began reading until I found "garbage" in the 10th one. Sure enough, that's what I was looking for, what Aggie was talking about. I then used ShotCut and ezgif.com to create the above animation and preserve/embed it.

For some reason, or reasons, I don't seem to understand, diehard NEC PC-FX fans are growing in number from 12 up to 24 these days (go figure) , so I thought they might appreciate this little bit of history if it could be recovered.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is only thanks to PCEFX 2.0 that you could learn about the mysterious "Blackholeian shoplifters" so I'm proud to have made that possible for you...  Guess that helps explain why PC-FX prices are skyrocketing over the years...
