CAN THIS BE STICKIED?

[Off-Topic / I hate Ebay]

All it does it make me stay up late at night and buy stuff I really don't need. 

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: New Adventure Island manual + Turbo Booster + Gamez]

I am missing a manual for my New Adventure Island.

RF sucks.

I only have 5 games:  Splatterhouse, Nightmare Creatures, JJ&Jeff, New Adventure Island, and Kieth Courage.  I want more, but I don't want to spend a lot on them.  I know there are a bunch of games out there that are not too expensive.

I prefer them to be in the proper jewel case with a manual and sleeve.  But if the price is right a loosie is ok.  Tell me what you have?  I'm talking cheap stuff - but good, like Final Lap Twin, Ninja Spirit, etc, Blazing Lasers, etc.

[Off-Topic / Reefer Madness]

It seems as though lately, everywhere I turn, there is mention of marijuana.  Whether it be polls, television shows, laws, busts, etc etc.  It seems like there is a movement happening.  One that's been going on for a long time now, but has become pretty strong as of late.  Personally I think they should just cut the crap and legalize it in all 50 states and  just get it over with, because with the way things are going it's going to happen sooner or later anyways.  Besides, like many other issues with this country, it's unconstitutional to criminalize it.  And sorry, but making it legal with "tax stamps" doesn't cut it especially since they were never available to begin with.

I don't know about you, but that's pretty awesome, and could open up a whole new type of gameplay!  Way to go Nintendo!  Always innovating!

[General Gaming / POLL: What are your 4 favorite consoles?]

It's obvious that everyone here probably likes their PC Engine or Turbo Grafx more than anything else.  But let's see a vote on what is your NEXT 4 favorite consoles of all time.  If one of the votes happens to be your FAVORITE of all time, and it's NOT an NEC console, mention it! 


One of my votes was the Sega Genesis/CD/32X/CDX - which happens to be my favorite console of all time.

Other 3 votes were the NES, Playstation 1/2/3, and the 3DO.

[Fighting Street / Fighting Street SUCKS]

This area of the website is useless.  Why should the NEC community degrade itself like this?  We are better than this!  Why should we stoop down to the level of the rest of the Internet.  The NEC community will falter if we continue this path.  This is the first and last post for me in Fighting Street.

[Localizations, Games, Apps, Docs / What's up with Mysterious Song?]

I was browsing through some of the old threads from about 4 or 5 years ago and came across a game that was being developed by a few people called "Mysterious Song"...  it looked really good!  What's the status on this, it seemed to me that it was all but done then.  Was it ever released?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Why is the PC Engine called a PC Engine?]

[Buy/Sell/Trade / 17 Loose TG-16 games *SOLD*]

ALL GAMES HAVE BEEN SOLD AS ONE LOT, THANKS FOR LOOKING!!


Ok, well I got a total of 17 loose Turbo Grafx 16 games that I don't play and or like.  So I am trying to sell them off.  Real cheap, you name the price + add 1.50 or so for shipping and it's yours.  All of them work, except I can't get Order of the Griffon to work in either my TG16 or my Express.  Just get a white screen.  Most of them appear a little dirty/scratched.  Maybe washing them up can help, I guess that's what happens when they are loose.  Anyways, here's the list, make an offer.

Order of the Griffon
Andre Panza Kick Boxing
Falcon
TurboGrafx CD System Card (not 3.0)
Battle Royale
TV Sports Basketball
Ballistix
Power Golf
Pac-Land

Silent Debuggers
Victory Run
Keith Courage

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / The SCORE of a lifetime!!]

I am so excited about this, I must share!

A friend of mine came over and noticed my game collection.  He asked if I had the Turbografx, and I told him that I used to own one, but not anymore, but that it would be nice to have one again.  He then told me that he had one with a bunch of games that he was going to throw away because he thought that it was just old garbage that no one would want anymore!!  I was like HELLL NOOO I'll take them!!  So he gave them to me.  I offered him some money, he declined. 

He gave me a Turbografx-16 w/booster, a TurboExpress w/tv + car adapter, about 40 hucards, 6 controllers, and a turbotap..  for FREE!!! 

So I took all the stuff home, wiped everything down, cleaned the pins on all the games, and basically tried to run all the games and both systems, controllers, the tap, everything to check the condition.  Everything seems to work fairly well really, I will start another thread about some of the tech problems.  Most of it are common things.

OK, here is a list of the games that I got.
Not sure which ones are rare and whatnot, I did end up with 3 dupes, so if anyone wants to trade some of their dupes for mine, that's cool.

Andre' Panza Kick Boxing (2)
Victory Run (2)
Keith Courage in Alpha Zones (2)

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Hi new member here!]

My first Turbografx was a Turbografx 16, purchased in 92.  I didnt have many games at the time.  I owned of course Keith Courage, also had super star soldier, ninja spirit, air zonk - probably a few others I can't remember now.  Loved the system, but I was at the time a die-hard Genesis fan, and I didnt think that the games were as good as the Genesis so I sold my system/games. 

I regretted that decision for about 3 years when in 95' I traded my Sega Genesis/CD for a TurboDUO.  I loved it.  Had the games it came with plus Lords of Thunder, Y's, Exile, and a few others.  I eventually sold that, because by then the Playstation was taking off, and I wanted the new system.  So I took the money and prepurchased the Playstation before it even came out so that I could get it on the first day.

Those were the last of my days cashing in my games.  So over 10 years now, I have been slowly collecting all the games that I used to have when I was younger, and never got rid of ANY of them (unless they were dupes or totally horrid). 

Now I have a collection of about 350 console games to enjoy (we won't count the thousands of roms), most of them old school.  I don't currently own any of the newest gen systems (unless you count the 3 DS', but the WII sure looks tempting (only for the virtual console games).

OK, that's enough about me.
