Just saw it.  I personally loved most of it.

How about you?

No one fucking believed me when I told this story and finally someone documented it.

While I was in the U.S. Army, I used a Super Nintendo to practice my shooting skills!  We also had something called the Weaponeer, but these systems have long since been replaced by the EST2000 program.

I wish I could get my hands on one of these, good times!

PSA:  IT'S OKAY TO BE A MAN AND PISS WHILE SITTING DOWN SO LONG AS YOU ARE ALSO IN THE PROCESS OF TAKING A SHIT! ](*,)

I was at work in the restroom stall and someone walks in, drops 'em, pushes out a mega turd, and after a few seconds, he stands up and pisses!  Second time it happens! Same guy!

That is some crazy ass extraterrestrial muscle control right there!  What a mindfuck!  I can't even begin to try that stunt, can you?

Background:

BlueBMW - A well respected member of our community was tremendously generous to me a while ago by giving me some TG Hardware and Games that I needed/wanted to rebuild my setup.  He didn't have to do that, and humbled, I vowed that I would pay it forward and do something to give back, in his name.

Well, here is BlueBMW's proxy raffle #1!

2 Lucky winners will each receive a copy of Battlefield:  Hardline (for the system of your choice).

The game launches in just under 3 weeks!

The raffle is open to anyone with the following caveat:  Removal from the list for not having a good rep and being called out for it AND Blue approving the removal of your name from the list.
 

Make no mistake that this is Blue's raffle so many many thanks to him for his generosity and contributions to people on these forums over the years!  Another raffle for PCE/TG related stuff on the way!

Good luck to all entrants!

Hey All, been lurking over the past few days so I am definitely NOT gone!  3rd and last baby is a month away so things have be super busy for me.   ](*,)

Anyway, I've been thinking (more like obsessing) about this mod for a while now and wanted everyone's input on the feasibility of it.

I will call it the "Turbo Express XL":  A LARGE form factor TE in the exact same style as the regular TE, but with a Large Screen and Six Button Layout.  I wish I could draw a mock-up, but perhaps people with skills could take a shot.

Main Parts Needed:

PC Engine Core Guts
Region Switch Board
PC Engine 6 Button Controller
Internal Speaker
Large Screen
Power Supply or LIPO Battery

A Custom 3D-Printed Shell and parts to fit all the above. Custom Screen Cover and Logo.

Extra "Nice to Have" Features:  Output to Component/S-Video/AV/RGB, Extra Port for 2-Player, CD Port.


Thoughts?  Is this Possible? Cool?  Stupid waste of time?  All opinions welcomed.
#20
Hi All, weird request but it's time to swap out the cover to my W-Ring, The front sticker seems to be too old to come off without being ruined so I figure I would try to repro it.  (Yes I have tried to heat it).

Does anyone have a good quality scan of one? (Example below)

Thanks!

What's up my peeps, wanted to catch everyone up on where I've been!

Well, my life has undergone many changes where to start!

1.  Got a job promotion to a new location so I had to uproot my family and move to Fairfield, CA.
2.  My daughter Gracie was born! Yes, ole MG never shoots blanks!
3.  Wife is pregnant again (see above).
4.  Thanks to TheSteve, I finally got a repaired CD-Rom back and it works great! (Thanks Steve!)

If all goes well, I will "finally" be able to buy my house next year.  Still Obeying and getting caught up on all the threads and new members!

Anyway, I will make it a point to stop in more often.  Been crazy crazy busy with the new job position and baby. 

Did I miss anything cool?

Hi Guys, I would like to get a hold of one of these stock gears for my TG-CD drive as I want to keep mine as close to OEM as possible.

For one (1), I end up paying $32.25 each if I go with this option:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/151088559340?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

However, If I can get 5 people who are interested in a stock gear, we could do a group buy and pay ~$23.54 each via the link below.  (I will ship to you for free if in CONUS).

Who is with me?

1. Me
2. tggodfrey x2
3. JKM
4. ElSeven

It is the year 2080, I doubt any of us are still around and most likely, our collections have long since been passed down to friends or family more than once (if not sold).

CD's and HuCards are a few years away from failing and there is no one left who knows how to repair failing hardware.  Emulation is still not good enough.

Will people still manage to Obey? Or have they moved on to things like V-World?

Is TG/PC-Engine still remembered?

Did someone ever come up with a nice repro of Magical Chase?  Dynastic Hero?
#24
As the subject says, hit me up if you have some spares!
#25
Hey All, I remember a few years back someone had mentioned that the TG-CD and PCE-CD players weren't the only models.  What were the others?  Any pictures?

Sorry, I tried searching to no avail.
#26
I always carry a spare Keith Courage in my wallet.

You never know when you will run into loosie goosie storage possibilities and so it's nice to have a HuCard right then and there to see how it would fit!

There, my secret is out.... :wink:
#27
Hi all, looking to buy the thicker style PCE CD cases like the kind that come with Monster Maker, Arcade Card Pro, and others.

I need about 3 of them in good/nice condition.

Thanks!
#28
That the Bonk's Adventure and Bonk's Revenge manuals are different and exclusive to the GOT set as opposed to the manuals shipped with the HuCards? 

Meaning if you have these two manuals and they make references to "TurboChip" rather than "CD-ROM" (and are thicker than they are supposed to be), your set is incomplete?   ](*,)
#29
Either the DJ is a true fan or He found a cool picture that he likes and uses.

Either way, his group or club is called "Sonido Ballistix."

Big WTF indeed.

Off-Topic / Best CD Jewel Cases?
08/08/2013, 08:19 PM
Hey Guys, I know this has been discussed before but I am looking to see if anyone has recently scored some good quality sturdy single CD full-sized jewel cases?

I am looking for something that comes with clear CD trays as I would use them to replace Dreamcast, PS1, Music, and at least use some of the lids for TG/PCE games.

Looking for firsthand knowledge.

Thanks!
#32
YouTube only has a couple of songs so trying to locate the full MP3 album.

Thanks!

Hey Guys, do any of you happen to know if a. you can use an AC adapter on a TE while the batteries are inserted and b. do the batteries continue to drain?

I ask because I have always made it a habit to do one or the other as I don't recall it being specified in the manual.

I know it's a long shot, but hoping someone is willing to part with it.  Thanks!

Having a killer time with this game!

Stage 2 is my favorite so far, mostly because of the music.
#37
Hi Guys, aside from the obvious (which is money), does anyone know why/how some companies are able to create retro hardware?

I am curious as to why no one has done this for TG/TE - PCE/GT?

I mean there is only so many times you can "repair" something before it's rendered useless right?

Discuss.
#38
The completist in me is too overwhelming to not give this a shot.  Looking for an OEM System Card 3.0 Case (or OEM inserts).

Name your price!

For those of you who saw my original intent from Raffle #1 (Which is still going btw!) here is #2:

Hey all, I love the loose System 3.0 card Bernie sold me so much that I want to complete it with an original case!

If you have a complete OEM case for sale pm me, also willing to buy original inserts if you have them as I have jewel cases, white huey trays and sleeves.

Thanks!
#43
Okay you sexy apes, I am going to be running some Non-TG/PCE raffles from time to time after the new year so I will start with this one.

3 New bleem! DreamCast Boot Discs for PS1 Gran Turismo 2, 1 each to 3 lucky members of PCEFX.

I say minimum 50 post count should be about right.  Shipping on me of course and winners announced some time on 1/1/2013 PST.  Good luck!

Hi Guys, my TG-CD AC Adapter shorts out (resetting the game constantly) due to a loose stem at the base side end of AC plug (where the plug cable meets the box).  Is there anyone who knows how to repair this?

Hey Guys, I just picked up one of these cables as it's long, looks well-made, and I need it.  Anyways it ran about $20 shipped to the U.S. and I thought I'd share.  They do have the shorter one as well for cheaper.  Will update on when I get it to provide a quick review.

Was about to pull the trigger at Game of Japan and the price jumped from $40 to $70!!!  Kiss my ass!

Also willing to take a cheap 3.0 system card instead complete.  The going rate on those is about $20 give or take.

Thanks!

Like a speaker with better sound altogether?

Thanks!

So some of you remember me asking for a couple of sleeves with holes in them?  Thanks to Bernie in providing me some I can now reflect and tell the story of what happened.

So I put together my System Card 2.0 case using Sparky's AWESOME inserts.  I used the white hucard tray with the notches and a holed sleeve for this.

It looked beautiful.

Then I put it away in my TG-16 Case (where I have my TG-16/Turbo Booster Plus).

Well a few days before asking for the sleeves, I went into the case to grab my system card because I wanted to manage my saves on my Duo-R.

Well, when I opened the case, the back of the front insert was grafted and I mean GRAFTED onto my hucard sleeve.  As if the paper MELTED onto the sleeve!  I tried to sort of pull apart and ended up tearing the front insert that Sparky made me and completely ruined the sleeve that I had!

I don't know how the fuck that happened!!!...but I is Sad.   [-(
