Title: If I learned even something... OBEY!
Post by: ZueriHB on 11/09/2013, 06:38 PM
First things first:

/20131101_005838.jpg

I'm ZueriHB, also known as Waisneed on Nintendo Consoles. I'm PC Engine aware since 2000 or something, seen one (Suitcase) with Dracula X at a friends house. He is a big Castlevania fan, that's why he had to have one.

I myself didn't really get into PC Engine gaming until I bought myself a Wii console at launch (Long time Nintendo gamer), and literally downloaded all TurboGrafX 16 games on it.

In 2009, I got the chance to buy a PC Engine with CD-ROM and Fausseté Amour for a very good price (and a second CoreGrafX some weeks later). Also a good deal on 20 or so HuCards, all localy.

My collection is at about the state shown here, incl. some other CD games (Sailor Moon, Gradius II and Urusei Yatsura)

But I also wanted to play good games on the go, without the help of a Wii U. And because both my preorders for PS4 and XBone went down the drain, or got delayed until next year, this happened:

And for my continuing OBEYing you can thank dear Tatsujin, it's his fault anyway ;)

Current collection is at 39 HuCards, 3 System Cards, 4 TurboChips, 1 CD-Game, 6 Super CD-Games, 1 White PC Engine with CD-ROM and IFU, CoreGrafX (modded for TG16) with IFU and defective CD-ROM, LT, Tennokoe 2 with 2 Tennokoe Banks.

Games I like the most are:
R-Type, Super Star Soldier, Star Parodier, Gradius II, Galaga '88, After Burner II and Power League '93.

I'm still on the lookout on some Hard- and Software, I'll come to it sometime later..

Of course I need the Thunder games, and didn't know that A-Train was out for OBEY.

Also I'm in need of PC Denshin... I liked the HuCard game on Virtual Console, but didn't get into the CD version.


Also LT used for it's intended purpose: OBEYing everywhere, even game shops.

Disclaimer: There is no Dracula X in my possession.


But sadly, there are no standard power outlets in most train piloting cabs, I need a good battery and USB solution for powering the LT.

Welcome, comrade.  :pcgs:

Your favorite games (thus far) reveal a soft spot for shoot-em-ups. WE APPROVE.

Now stop wasting your time with Power League '93 and play some Blodia.

Today I just OBEYed to some R-Type (FINALLY got to level 4) and some multiplayer Power League. Both is tons of fun.

And don't diss enjoyable games.

Best thing about PC Engine? There is no FIFA and no MADDEN. LOVE IT!
Also played some Alien Crush. Lo~ove me some Pinball games!

I was teasing about baseball. I actually enjoy the Power League games  :pcgs:.

R-Type is challenging. I actually like the CD version, too (many folks don't like the Red Book Soundtrack, but I appreciate some variety, even if it is very dated).

So, finish the R-Type on HuCARD, then, later, treat yourself to CD. Or, if you are like most folks, shake your head in disbelief about the soundtrack. Ha. (https://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcds.png)

Kunio's Soccer game wins anyway! Nintendo World Cup now OBEYs!

I actually have all three versions of R-Type, US HuCard, Japanese HuCards and the Complete CD version.

Depending on mood, I play any of the three, I like both soundtracks, HuCard and R-R-R-R-Type CD!

Playing After Burner II on a tilting train was way worth it!

So, how is the battery life using the LEGO PowerBrick?

Even if it only last for 30 minutes, it's worth it (I'm still surprised at how compact the battery is).

EDIT: Wow, 90 minutes of play time? That is pretty damn good. I seriously underestimated how long it would last.

May I ask what screen brightness you typically use (and the type of headphone you use--ear bud vs. larger, over the ear)?

I get over 2 hours worth of gameplay, didn't expect that too! But as stated in the other thread, picture get's wobbly at that point and I suggest to stop using the integrated display from then on.

I mostly have brightness all the way down, because it's to white on higher brightness settings. I use big headphones (PlayStation Pulse) and sometimes even a controller.
