@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...

Meh, it controls just fine.  Even has 2 screens stacked to give two "sprite planes", it actually works quite well.
Nice sense of depth considering it's age.  Not a bad attempt to port the arcade. Much better then most of the LCD
crap you find for 100yen :P

DAMN!
Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

The three PCE Games are from Thibaut  :P.
The poster is made from my scanned manual (only 600 dpi - I don't have a better scanner  :? but it looks really good  :D). I went with an online printshop since in our little town are no print shops  #-o. It's B1 format (70 cm x 100cm) on high glossy paper.

Aww man I love Battle Mania. That is a prime example of how Americans ruined some awesome cover art with "Trouble Shooter"

I just ordered two of the manliest PC-Engine games, Double Dragon II and Ai Cho Aniki.  Even though I am primarily a TG16 guy, I am excited to add these games to my list of 20 or so PC-E games.  Double Dragon II on NES is one of my favorite games on the system, and the PCE appears to have the definitive version.

...however, I also thought I was getting the best version of a game when I ordered PC-E Ninja Gaiden, and that was not as good as the NES.

No way! The PCE version of Ninja Gaiden blows away the NES version!

Agreed. Except for the music. The NES versions tunes are way better!

The music is exactly what killed the PCE game for me.  Also, the backgrounds were updated, but they were just distracting and sloppy, and took away from the fluidity of the game.

This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!
