I laughed and thought maybe someone else also would.

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

Are there any sites out there like, let's say Spriters Resource, focused on the PC Engine?
I saw the sprite sheet index on pcengine.co.uk but it doesn't have what I search for. (currently, I'm on the hunt for all the sprites for A.N.G.E.L. You know, the fish in Deep Blue)

"Hey you guuuyyyys!"

I'm trying to get a hold of following games:

Final Soldier
Parasol Stars
Skweek
Valkyrie no densetsu

It doesn't matter if they're complete or loose, but they have to be japanese. If you haven't got one of these for sale, what do you reckon is a fair price for them, individually?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: HuCards]

Thanks to all the answers in my "what games are must haves" I have a sweet list - here's some of them. (I want them complete if possible!)

Atomic Robo-Kid Special   
Bomberman '94
Don Doko Don
Final Soldier
Kyūkyoku Tiger
Parodius Da!
PC Denjin - Punkic Cyborgs
PC Genjin
PC Genjin 2
Soldier Blade
Son Son II

[Off-Topic / Introducing myself]

Well, as many of you probably have noticed - I'm a new face here and I haven't really introduced myself properly.

I am a 25 year old guy from Malmö, Sweden who's real name is Starfighter Johansson. I was a total video game-nerd as a kid because I didn't have so much friends and didn't have so many other interests. When I discovered the punk scene at 14 the only things I cared about were alcohol and records so I sold pretty much every game I had to afford booze and 7-inch vinyls. After a few years I picked up an insanely overprized NES for poops and giggles and became addicted again. Since then I have collected games with passion, first off I bought back all the great games I sold, then I went out on a hunt for every game I wanted as a kid but never could afford. And now I'm just getting games I stumble upon that seems good. I don't collect games for the collections sake, I just get games I really want and don't care about complete sets of a consoles game library etc. But the collection is still pretty big (and always growing) with 30+ consoles and 500+ games.

I don't have a favorite console (allthough I'm very fond of my PC Engine right now) but the genres I generally prefer are platform, survival horror, puzzle and shoot 'em up.

I play guitar, bass and have the basics down in drums and the music I play - and listen to - is still punk. The angry stuff, mostly with d-beat in it. I have a thing for body modifications such as piercings, tattoos, scarrification and what have you - allthough I don't have so much of it myself apart from seven tattoos and a few face piercings (I have had them on other places as well but they're all gone today). I hate sports in real life and also in most video games, and I really hate sci-fi. The closest I get to that genre is the occasional shooter with sci-fi-theme.

I live in an apartment with my girlfriend and we have been together now for almost four years and the stuff we have in common is video games (yaay), dreadlocks and a kind of anarchistic view on the world, I guess you could say. I don't have a job but I have a "praktik", the translator said "work experience" so it's like.. you know, I work for no pay and instead get experience. At a library - and I love it. I like to organize shelves and input codes into systems.

I probably sound really egocentric talking so much about myself but I have a break at work now and don't have much else to do. Pictures of me, my collection and other random stuff is coming when I get home tonight.

You all seem to be cool (and somewhat kind ;)) persons so I'm looking forward to becoming an active part of your forum.

The games.. And some records, movies and what not. But mainly games.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Which games do I HAVE to get?]

So, I recently got my first PC Engine and I have no idea what to get to it. I've seen a few scrambled lists here and there that don't tell me all that much, and the game-library is quite a jungle.. I like shooters (that's the main reason I got it in the first place), platformers, puzzle games, fighters and sometimes racing games. I DON'T like RPGs, simulators (life, love, dating etc) or anything sports related. If you guys don't feel like rambling on about your favorites in mentioned genres maybe there are some competent and accurate lists on the subject you can refer me to? Preferably lists with explanations/pictures of each game. Thanks!
