I've redesigned the front page a little and have now added the following gameplay videos: After Burner II, Dracula X, R-Type I, Schbibin Man, Space Harrier and Street Fighter II'.
I'll be working on adding a few more this week so keep an eye out.
I just gotta say: awesome front page! I especially like the hucard-buttons!
Thanks :)
Just added: Rastan Saga II video. Woohoo!
Looking good man, and I dig the front page with the cute HuCards as well :) . I do hope you enlarge the small screenshot pictures like you mentioned in the other thread, an original resolution size would be really nice. That's up to you though.

Working on it now.
Yep, great job so far.
And bigger screenshots would definitly help. Although a video is worth a thousand pictures :D
Great stuff Paul! That Rastan Saga II video had me laughing hard! It's just like you and stevek666 described! :lol: I'll have to try it out myself just to say I suffered through the gameplay. :)
Oh, one last thing, on the main page under the updates, the Street Fighter II link goes to Space Harrier. I was able to get to the SF2' video from the Gameplay Videos link in the Omake section though.
Keep up the good work!
yup great new home page. and yea I wanna point out that Street fighter link too.
Link fixed. Thanks for pointing that out.
Pretty good keep up the good work 8)

Great stuff, I really dig the hucard weblinks.
Just want to point out a minor mistake on KYUKYOKU TIGER (http://pcenginebible.roarvgm.com/HTML_Games/Ultimate_Tiger.htm). You have its AKA as Tiger Heli and it should be changed to the name, Twin Cobra. Tiger Heli is an older game that came out before Kyukyoku Tiger (Twin Cobra).

The AKA is used for names which games are WRONGLY known as, as well as alternate names (i.e. US). For example, The Kung Fu is also known as Drunken Master, even though this is not the name of the game. Ultimate Tiger is often called (incorrectly) Tiger Heli.

Fantastic work, Paul. You've made my PC Engine Bible wish from years ago come true! :D
I originally used the tiny screens because of download times, so it's about time they were updated now everyone has adsl. I've taken a whole load more and will integrate them as soon as I can.

Oh, I see, that is pretty neat. The import stores would always get the names of games wrong (sometimes they just made shit up).
I bet there are differences between the names UK vs. French vs. U.S. importers assigned to games.

Phew, I'm taking the rest fo the day off now.
Good work man, and good luck. I originally started out Turbo2k many years ago with the idea I'd have all the screenshots done as well, and at least 2 done per game. I've gotten to the point where I think I'm around 95% complete, however I've virtually given up. If you can do 'em all, my hats off to ya :)
OD
Well I may be calling for help from the guys on the forum here soon to fill in some of the major screenshot blanks I have.

Let me know man, I've got a bazillion and am not against sharing if you need a hand to complete the project :)
In fact, if you really wanted, I could give you access to all of them right now - should speed things up if only a little bit for you. Let me know.
OD
Ooo, are they all full resolution, clean png or gif grabs?
What I need is title screen and one in game shot for anything I'm missing. I really need to get a list up of the priority games (not having pics of countless mah jong games worries me less than not having some for Sapphire for example).
Check your PM :)

Gameplay video added: Shadow of the Beast.
I beat Shadow of the Beast god knows how many times back on my TG16+CD. I always wondered though,
*SPOILER*
was the last boss really a big toe, whenever I finished it, I would be like, that just doesnt seem like the end to me , did I miss something.
hehe, I know, that has to be the oddest end of game boss ever.
Gameplay video added: Kaze Kiri & Wonder Boy III:Monster Lair
Gameplay video added: Winds of Thunder.
Gameplay video added: Energy
:P
Quote from: sunteam_paulGameplay video added: Energy
:P
I am checking this out ASAP. NO JOKE! I have the HuCard, but that doesn't mean I want to actually go through the labor of taking it out of the case and inserting it into the console :)
Gameplay video added: Cross Wiber - Cyber Combat Police.
Gameplay videos added: Doraemon & Devil Crash.
Gameplay video added: W-Ring.
This one was a bit of a nightmare. Because of the rate your bullets flash, half the time they were showing up blank on the video. Took a couple of retries to fix it. Still a couple of glitches in there though.
did you try out some different framerates for the capturing? i think with 15, 30, 60fps you will get the best result.^^"
I capture at 50fps which is no problem. The issue is with editing afterwards. I use Windows Movie Maker which kind of limits the options for exporting, but a few tweaks and it's usually OK.
Gameplay Video Added: Legendary Axe.
Gameplay Video Added: Vigilante.
Gameplay video added: Xevious.
Gameplay video added: Ys I.II
Second opinions added for CD Battle, Tower of Druaga and Downtown. Screenshots added for Downtown. Gameplay video added for Circus Lido.
Gameplay video added: Darius Plus
Gameplay video added: Ai Cho Aniki.
Gameplay video added: Faussete Amour, Golden Axe and Star Parodier.
Quote from: sunteam_paulGameplay video added: Faussete Amour, Golden Axe and Star Parodier.
Wow, I never realised that Faussete Amour was so slow. I like the Bionic Commando gameplay though. The transparent water effect looks very cool with the nice gradient in the sky being revealed. The graphics look a lot better than I've been led to believe from the few available screenshots online. It looks like fun and that it would make a great game with tighter(from what I've heard) gameplay.
Thanks a lot for the video! :)
Haha, yeah Fausette Armour looks ridiculously slow. I totally wasn't aware of the Bionic Commando-style hook though so that makes me pretty interested in the game now. I also love how her armour comes off when she gets hit. As slow as it is, it looks like a pretty fun game overall.
I need to put some time into it to make a proper judgement, but it's pretty good. It can be frustrating if you try to rush it as you end up dying if you're not looking where you're going. I didn't capture her spin jump on the vid unfortunately, that's a handy little move and gets you up platforms a bit quicker.
Gameplay video added: Battle Ace, Barunba, Dragon Half, Forgotten Worlds & Ghouls 'n' Ghosts.
Gameplay video added: Final Soldier and Salamander.
Quote from: sunteam_paulGameplay video added: Battle Ace, Barunba, Dragon Half, Forgotten Worlds & Ghouls 'n' Ghosts.
Dragon Half actually looks pretty cool. I was alawys turned off, because the idea of trying a japanese board game is intimidating. If it were in english, I'd fire it up right now.
Barumba is yet another game I've always meant to play(like Ordyne) but always forget to. The graphics look way better than I expected. It also appears that Barumba is another VHD shooter that predates Lords Of Thunder by years. :P
Salamander looks as good as I hoped it would. Life Force is one of my favorite NES games and was one of the very first games I bought brand new on my own. I got the HuCard like 7 years ago, but have never had the discipline to play through farther than my first death.
Gameplay video added: Final Blaster and Jackie Chan.

Love the 20 year gif! Nice job as always. =D>
That GIF is awesome, very good idea.
Sunteam, your site is actually where I got most of my basic info on a lot of games when I was looking to build a PCE collection - that and Universo PCEngine, your site has a great database and universo has some great reviews! I have written quite a few reviews for sega8bit and might do some for the PCE at some point, what sites do you know that accept game reviews? (if you wanna check out any of my sega reviews just go to sega8bit.com).

FYI: Updates are now on hold for AT LEAST 6 months (possibly more) while the whole site gets a complete remake. It'll be worth the wait, I'm putting an extraordinary amount of love into each and every page. I just hope to finish it this decade :?

I'll finish it first before I upload it. I think 6 months is probably underestimating the time it will take actually. Erm when you consider there are almost 600 games listed the chances of me doing 2 games a day, every day until then are a little remote. Of course some days I can get through 3 or 4, a weekend quite a few, but with looming MMORPGs I'm unlikely to keep up the speed for that long.
The podcast will continue as planned, at least for most of the year (undecided if I will still be doing it next year).

I've created one of those Live Space thingies now for the Software Bible, with the intent on supplying information regarding the update status of the site. It also allows me to ramble on and on blogstyle about stuff, cry about all the work to do and cover scans I still need and have pictures of PCE games fading in and out which is always nice. If anyone is reeeealy bored they may want to take a look here: http://peelfruit.spaces.live.com/
And if you don't use the guestbook I'll feel lonely. :cry:
*ahem* (http://www.pcengine.co.uk)
This is very nice!
Please though, don't ever re-design your site again. To the average user, seeing their favorite sites being re-designed just means months and months of no visible updates or in many cases total down time. Also, you never know when the site owner is going to just decide it wasn't worth it and just give up on the site all together because the redesign turned out to be a bigger job than originally though.
So, like I said, I love it. Now don't ever change it again! :wink:

Firstly I will never, ever give up on the site :) It's consumed over 10 years of my life in various forms and it's my little baby.
Second, I don't think I'll ever do a major redesign again. This one was essential to convert the crappy on format constructed using layers in a really old version of Dreamweaver to something that is far easier for me to update and far less likely to foul up in different browsers. So there's no need to worry! :wink:

Thanks for helping me out a bit, Sunteam_Paul. I have responded to your previous comment to me on your video about some of my thoughts on the new website. I'll kinda miss the old design now that I've browsed around the website a bit more, but I hope that the further enhancements to this design will improve it to an even greater deal. My only major complaints are the lack of the Omake section (currently), and the External Links for the games (though I see that some of them may present more information on signifcant objects in them, I, personally, wouldn't highly trust Wikipedia to be a good source to present accurate information on any items, though it is an ultimate one in this sense; Though it has much the same information presented as it, I prefer the website Answers.com (http://www.answers.com) as an Internet encyclopedia, mostly due to the interface). Other than that, I'm glad that you've gotten the update going at last.

The Omake section is gone for good now. With the aim of having many of those 'omake' features as standard for game entries as I add to the site, the section becomes pretty much redundant as time goes on. There seems little point in relisting every game that has a video (which you can get to via YouTube anyway) or a game cover scan. Best to just look up the games you are interested in and see what is there.
There are two features of the external links. The first is to supply outside information related to the game, such as fan sites etc. The second (and this is particularly relevant for those swarms of games with no specific websites for them) is for me to just be a bit random by creating some very tenuous links to something completely different. Strangely enough, while looking for many of these I've found a lot of interesting sites, so it's worth giving some of them a look.
Regarding Wikipedia, it's very fashionable to poo-poo it as a source of completely innacurate information. But it's the most well known site of its type and it does contain a lot of truthful information within it. It's up to the user whether they wish to use it or not, I decided it's better to give them that choice than to leave it off completely.

I see. That was my favorite section of the website, and I went there often to listen to a few tunes from the games (even with an echo effect in the HuCard music) or look at their photos. At least the music videos from YouTube have been put up on there.
I am aware that Wikipedia can have correct information, and I won't try to stop anyone from using it as a source, but as its entries can be written by anyone, I often try to avoid it for reading about certain objects. Therefore, I'll just completely ignore it on your website; at least it's not featured on every page, anyway.
Can anyone let me know if they get any glitches with the display on the homepage? If so, which OS/Browser are you using and what is the glitch.
Thanks

From the links possible to get to it, I still had the older homepage appearing oftentimes (though this can be fixed by clicking the "HOME" button on it). I use Internet Explorer 7.0 for the computers, which AOL 9.1 is used for the Gateway 560GE model and AOL Desktop 10.0 is used for the Sony VIAO NR Series notebook (the Wii browser has yet to be tested).
I have also noted a few other issues that occurred within the website:
When trying to access the links from the "Why not try..." section from Bonk's Revenge, the pages were unable to be found with the exception of Bonk's Adventure. The pages themselves work fine, and the links to the rest of the games work just fine, also.
On the Bari Bari Densetsu page, tires is spelled as "tyres" in the "Overview" section. I'm not sure if this is just an English language variant (such as the English Added U (favourite) and the Switched Around Ending R and E (metre)), but I thought it would be needed to point this factor out.
On the Dragon Spirit page, the link to see a larger version of the Japanese cover art is unable to found.
This may not be a problem relating to your website, but the link to see the dragon pictures that is found for the "External Links" for Dragon Spirit and Dragon Knight II are unable to be found. The Famous Dragons link for Dragon Knight III was not located in the website itself (it's a shame, too; I was excited to view these pages :|).
I'll let you know of any more problems that I encounter from the website.
Thank you for those reports! I'll take a look at them this evening.

On the Bari Bari Densetsu page, tires is spelled as "tyres" in the "Overview" section. I'm not sure if this is just an English language variant (such as the English Added U (favourite) and the Switched Around Ending R and E (metre)), but I thought it would be needed to point this factor out.
On the Dragon Spirit page, the link to see a larger version of the Japanese cover art is unable to found.
This may not be a problem relating to your website, but the link to see the dragon pictures that is found for the "External Links" for Dragon Spirit and Dragon Knight II are unable to be found. The Famous Dragons link for Dragon Knight III was not located in the website itself (it's a shame, too; I was excited to view these pages :|).
I'll let you know of any more problems that I encounter from the website.
The old home pagef appearing has to be an issue with your browser's cache as it doesn't physically exist on the server any more (deleting temporary internet files should solve this).
The PC Genjin 2 link problem has been fixed. Some strange Dreamweaver bug it seems caused that.
Tyres is the British spelling, yes :)
The Dragon Spirit cover works for me, it may have been a temporary glitch.
The two external links have been changed as it seems those other sites are broke/not working properly. I guess I can expect a few of these considering how long this has taken me.
Thanks again for letting me know, and keep reporting any issues. I appoint you as my website's little guardian angel O:)
Edit: Mini site update! Favicon added :D
Site updated!
Added gameplay videos of Genocide, Nexzr, Override, Psychic Storm, Time Cruise II, Turrican and Wataru.
Loving the updated site! Just awesome. :D
Site updated.
Rated and expanded overview and comments for Operation Wolf. Gameplay videos added for Darius Plus, Dead Moon, Kyūkyoku Tiger and Legend of Dekoboko.

Thanks
From the links possible to get to it, I still had the older homepage appearing oftentimes (though this can be fixed by clicking the "HOME" button on it). I use Internet Explorer 7.0 for the computers, which AOL 9.1 is used for the Gateway 560GE model and AOL Desktop 10.0 is used for the Sony VIAO NR Series notebook (the Wii browser has yet to be tested).

Thanks a lot, and you're welcome :). The current home page has been appearing more often now, and The Dragon Spirit cover art had been working for since I tried it after addressing the problem.
I have found that the screenshots submitted by Glenn Percival for the unreleased Fantasy Star Soldier are unable to be found. It's a severe circumstance since they are perhaps the only type of information that can for this US version of Star Parodier.
I'm not sure if you've meant to do the linking in the current way or not, but shouldn't the "Ys III Shrine" website be linked from Ys III: Wanderers From Ys, and the "Legacy of Ys" site under Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys? This just requires a simple switcharound, but I feel it would be best suitable for the two games.

You've already uploaded an extended version (https://youtu.be/7tlFaGXTREY) of the Darius Plus video that you have uploaded today (https://youtu.be/qc5JJraRfKY) over a year ago, just to inform you (the machine level portion of the original gameplay collection was missing in the newer one). It may be needed that the newer one would have to be removed, for the sake of convienience.
Minor missing word in Dead of the Brain's description:
"Dead of the Brain 1 & 2 are conversions of digital comics"
Where would I be without you guys!
Fixed the Fantasy Star Soldier screenshots.
Swapped the Ys links over.
Deleted the new Darius Plus video...my memory must be going, it's old age you know :P
Fixed the typo in Dead of the Brain (really need to get round to screenshotting that game soon)

THANKS :D :D :D! I was wondering if I helped out enough to make significance in contributing to the site (I thought an item needed to be submitted in directly to it for that, such as information or a review). If you ever need to double-check to see if you have a YouTube video of a game already, you can always use the search feature on your "Videos" section, or look through the ones put up already on your own.
I would like to see the gameplay videos for the Bomberman games (maybe Bomberman Panic, as well) that were released for the PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16. If music sample videos can be requested, too, I'd like to see the ones for the Bonk series, Star Parodier, Super Darius, and Turrican.
Gameplay videos added: Bomber Man '94, Horror Story, PC Genjin 2, PC Genjin 3, Sapphire, Star Mobile, Terraforming and Violent Soldier.
Music added for Star Parodier.
Pictures added for Operation Wolf.
I'll see what I can do about those other requests :wink:

Thanks a lot for what you've done so far, Sunteam_Paul :). There are a few more things that I want to tell you, though:
I love how it's recommended in the "Why not try.." section for Artist Tool to use a pencil and paper instead :P (that joke could even be extended to mention Microsoft Paint and Mario Paint for the Super Nintendo, too :mrgreen:). It is stated on top of its page that the release date was on October 18, 1991, though; the game's copyright information has it for 1989.
For Terraforming, the Overview states it to be a biological shooter, but it's more of a seismic one since the levels are based on earthly locations. A rephrasing can be done this.
I'm thinking about using some of the pictures provided on your website to clip screenshots for making monthly avatars. If this is okay with you, I'll provide the credit/source on the "New Avatar Apreesh Thread (https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=5397.0)" when possible. If not, I'll look for other sources to use for new icons.
Fixed date.
I see where you are coming from with Terraforming, but the game is heavily based on shooting many biological creatures in their early stages on the terraformed world. So we're both right really.
Feel free to make avatars from my screenies.
Added music for Turrican, Ys I and Ys II.
Gameplay videos added: Martial Champion, Pop 'n Magic, Spriggan and Super Darius. Music added for Golden Axe, Legend of Dekoboko and Super Darius.

Here's a few minor errors for fixing:
A.III
Link to Stephenson's Rocket has expired, but here's (http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/objects/nrm_-_locomotives_and_rolling_stock/1862-5.aspx?keywords=stephenson%27s+rocket) the new link.
ADVENTURE ISLAND
Typo - "Taking more of its influence from the second game....."
AI - CHO ANIKI
Link to 'Visual Scenes - Opening' is dead.
ANKOKU DENSETSU
Typo - "and maybe a little more ROM on the HuCard" - I know it's nitpicky, but shouldn't RAM be ROM?
APPARE! GATE BALL
Typo - "...members of your team are chosen..."
Typo - "...guaranteed to be frustratingly better than you are..."
ART OF FIGHTING
Typo - "(think Street Fighter II's Hadouken)" - according to various intrawebz sources anyway, so take this with a grain of salt.
ASTRALIUS
Typo - "You are a flute playing hero..."
GENPEITOMADEN
Page is the old format with bad pictures. This should be remedied as soon as possible, as the world's greatest game deserves better. :)
You are a jewel among human beings :D
Fixed everything, including the Genpei problem which was utterly bizarre.

I had no idea that you were able to see a view counter for each of the pages! Also, is it possible to know the individuals who looked at your webpages :wink:?
I have a few more errors that I can across from the website, all which were different from the ones Necromancer pointed out from before:
There are no links available to see a larger version of the front covers for Dungeon Explorer II and Darkwing Duck (for Darkwing Duck, though, I have a feeling that you thought that it was too simple to have one).
For The Addams Family, the word "are" is missing from the third sentence in the "Comment" between "sprite" and "basic." The word "digitized" is spelled correctly for the "Digitized Pictures" link, but an "s" replaced the "z" for both the website title and webpage (I'm tired of seeing this, along with other spelling and grammar errors that appear frequently, on the Internet)!
I thought this error was a little humorous, but the release date in Japan for Alien Crush is put as September 14, 1998. This same typo had also happened with Jaseikin Necromancer.
Also, it might be a good idea to put a capital "G" for the TurboGrafx-16 on the front page description of the PC Engine; that was the way the system was officially spelled.

These are intentional. Not all games have larger cover images because I don't have high enough quality scans for them.

Sorted. British English tends to use 's' more than 'z' for words like this but in this case it should have been 'z' and I got myself confoozed.

I have just one more error I've noticed that I've forgotten to put up last night: The link to Ballistix on the "B" page links to Baby Jo the Superhero, thus making two links to the former game on that same page. The ones going to this game in the "Why not try" sections of various titles have worked fine, as far as I know.
Well spotted! Fixed.
Here's a few more:
BARI BARI DENSETSU

BATMAN
Typo - "Graphics are well drawn - suitably dark and moody..."
BATTLE ACE
Typo - "Quite how a company like Hudson had the nerve to release this trash is beyond me." - I don't think even the King's English would approve of this one.

I've noticed some odd phrasing whilst reading the Cadash overview. In the second sentence, there is a mention of "there mush much gnashing of teeth." There can be multiple ways to restate it, but one particular way I can think of is "and there was much mushing and gnashing of teeth from Barlog."

"Mushing" could refer to squishing, not telling dogs to pull a sleigh. The word "mushing" can be removed entirely to form a sensible sentence, as well.

I've hopefully fixed them all (although the link to old versions of pages still bemuses me, unless some new versions just failed to upload correctly).

There just needs to be an adjective between "quite" and "how" and get rid of , or just remove "Quite" altogether. It just depends on the context. But from what I gather you are trying to say, I would suggest getting rid of "Quite" and start the sentence off with "How":
i.e. "How a company like Hudson had the nerve to release this trash is beyond me."
or with an adjective, thought I don't think this fits with what you are trying to say. "Quite
disheartening how a company like Hudson could release this trash."

I feel the same way when I see some of the spelling errors made often on the Internet, and I do get kinda disappointed when I make simplistic one myself.
I think I just noticed that some of the single-missing-word spelling errors could be due to a sort of slang used in the English language. For instance, in the second sentence of the overview for Bikkuri Man World/Wonder Boy in Monster Lair, the word "of" is missing between the letters "perfect" and "a", making the phrase "...perfect a conversion as you're likely to get." Sometimes people do say these in normal circumstances, as I recall, but this, I believe, relates to drabbing on words or a southern-USA type of speech. Don't try to feel too bad about little errors like those, if you do feel humliated by them; sometimes they are appropriate for some levels of communications (but it is always best to speak as intelligently as possible, too; it would be good to fix the error mentioned above).

You sure are giving me a bit of a workload there, Sunteam_Paul. Good work on the footages, as usual. I'm particularly thankful for the Pac-Land, Hana Taka Daka!?, and Panic Bomber one since they were most helpful.
I have noticed a few errors in the Populous entry, though. The game was listed to be released on April 5, 1991, but the games copyright date states that it was made in 1989 (the same type of error that was present in Artist Tool). There is a context error in the phrase "More houses means more people" for the Overview; since the subject is plural, the linking verb(?) must be singular for coherency. What system was the original game on (stating this will help provide necessary detail to the readers who are just learning about the game)? "God" may need to be capitalized also.

The original games (Amiga, ST, and PC) were released in 1989, hence the early copyright date.

Blasphemer! It shouldn't be capitalized, as the player adopts the role of a generic deity and not
the God. :wink:

I sometimes name the original format, but the Wiki link down the bottom of the page (yes I know you distrust Wikipedia) should provide more than enough information for those who wish to research it further.

I was running out of characters when I was trying to ask about this on the Coryoon gameplay video, but what had happened to the pictures of the options screens that were in the "Omake Images" section of the older version of the website? They really were lovely pictures, as I remember you addressing them as, too.
I was surprised from the Kato Chan and Ken Chan overview that you knew two terminologies for fecalation ("letting one rip" and "taking a dump"). I never though anyone outside of America (let alone my own father, since he uses them quite frequently) was aware of them...Did you listen to American comedies, by any chance :-"?
NOW, I really like to hear a music video for Timeball/Blodia, since from hearing the "techno" track present in the gameplay video for it, and there looks to be several music choices possible, I would like to hear the other music pieces sound like. A gameplay video of Battle Royale would be nice, also; Looking at the screenshots, I've been interested to see how it plays.

I was super stoked to see this website! Gamefaqs and Mobygames are not ideal sites sometimes for figuring out what type of game a certain title is. I just went thru the PCE S.B. and made up a list of all the games I want to get... wow is it a long one! Anyway this is a great resource, thanks for maintaining it! :dance:
Yeah that's so true!
It's the best video games ressource I've ever seen!
Complete and very useful!
I've already bought 9 games, all refering to this bible.
And tonight I'll visit an eBay seller who sold me a scart for my Coregrafx!
I'll be able to play all of them this week end, finally and enter this new world!! :dance:

I wouldn't go that far, but it's certainly the best for PCE/CD games. The bigger consoles have vast databases filled with information, but the PC engine/TG system? Not so much. Which is why this site is so great. I might have to start submitting some reviews if I can so it can continue to grow.
Not to take away from Sunteam Paul's fine site, but have you two visited PCE Daisakusen (http://www.pcedaisakusen.net) or the PC Engine Catalog Project (http://www.pcecp.com)? They don't serve up the tunes and vids that the bible sports, but they both offer a treasure trove of information, the former even helping you to keep track of your collection.
The first one didn't impress me at all, but the second one seems to have a lot more info as well as images for most if not all of the games in its database. Very impressive! Shame the layout isn't more user friendly, but oh well.
Yep I knew them both :)
I kinda like the second one but I find it difficult to navigate on. It's very laborious IMO.
And I'm aware that there are many complete video games site for the newest consoles...
But I just find Sunteam's to be the greatest graphically speaking and one of the greatest of the "one console only" type.
I mean it's clear, attractive, convivial and so ergonomic.
No other one is comparable.

To each his or her own, Necromancer [-X. I remember him giving this game about 3 meats out of 5 on the older version of the website. If he thinks it's a decent game, then he has no reason to change it.
I, too, owe my credentials to Sunteam_Paul. From his videos and website, I've learned a lot about a number of PC Engine and TurboGrafx-16 games, and a good number of the games I wanted to play were determined from these. I can't fully determine what my knowledge and game wantings would be if it weren't for them:).
I have a few questions for you, if you're reading this, Sunteam. I've noticed that for the "Note About the Game Title" section of the PC Denjin/Bonk's Adventure entry that the statement about his US name was changed from "ignoring Bonk all we can" to "before US marketing bods came up with 'Bonk.'" I seem to remember the former statement being present after the website had been updated. How long ago was it changed, and what was the purpose behind it (I have a feeling that it might had to do with "being appropriate").
In the gameplay video for Bonk's Adventure, was there some sort of "turbo" feature used in it? It seemed that there were some aerial flips that were done too quickly for the normal human to perform (especially during the bonus round requiring this; does Magic Engine support turbo features, even for the Japanese version, assuming that there were none available on the controllers for the PC Engine?). As far as I can determine, there doesn't seem to be anything too different about the way Bonk looks in the video from the US version (which made me wonder a bit if the video after the title screen was from the American version).
How were you able to record the music for Alien Crush, also? I haven't found any sound test cheat codes for the game (though there is one available for Devil's Crush). Does Magic Engine have a feature that allows to listen to the music in games in spite of a lack of a sound test within the actual game (I don't highly know about this emulator, but I have heard slightly about a feature like this).
Just to give you a reminder, I'm still waiting for a gameplay video of Battle Royale and the other two Bomberman games, and also music videos for the Bonk series.

The little laughing smiley makes it pretty obvious that I was joking and wasn't expecting Paul to change Genpei's rating. Perhaps you're unaware of the concept of 'joke', so here's a definition for you:
Joke – noun
1. Something said or done to provoke laughter or cause amusement, as a witticism, a short and amusing anecdote, or a prankish act.
2. Something that is amusing or ridiculous, esp. because of being ludicrously inadequate or a sham; a thing, situation, or person laughed at rather than taken seriously; a farce.
3. A matter that need not be taken very seriously; a trifling matter.
P.S. - In case you were wondering, yes, this post is also in jest. :P
After looking over PCECP some more, it looks like the PCE Bible might have more games, or possibly just several that aren't in the PCECP. I tried looking up games from the list I made up and couldn't find nearly half of them. Maybe the spelling is just different? No idea.

Even with the ":lol:" smiley, it just sounded like you were meanly laughing at the rating he gave for the game (I know about jokes, silly, so that jest wasn't even needed :twisted:). It can be hard to tell if someone's joking in text sometimes as in speech a certain tone in voice indicates one is told. At times, something so illogical even for a joke that I have to correct it no matter what :P.
Thanks for all the kind comments about my site, it's always a thrill to know that people really appreciate it and all those months (years) of my life have not been wasted! I will repeat Necro's comments that both PCECP and PCE Daisakusen are both awsome sites in their own right, and I think that all of our sites have something different to offer PC Engine fans.

My list has all the different names the title is under. When I looked them up, I used one, then the other, sometimes going so far as to remove words in the hopes of getting a hit, still with no luck. For instance, Faerie Dust Story (I think is the English translation of the name), I tried that, I tried the original Japanese and I try spelling it "Fairy" with no luck. Again, I'm sure some of it is that it's only listed in the Japanese name on PCECP and people tend to spell Japanese names differently in romanji all the time ("what, is that with like two u's and four r's?") so that's probably what the problem was. But I also don't remember seeing some of the titles when I went browsing either, but that also doesn't mean much. I didn't spend as much time going over everything on there like I did on PCE Bible.

Thank you so much for putting up the footages [-o<. I guess you consider P.C. Kid's US name sounding a little ridiculous (do you like the European name B.C. Kid, though)? Playing Bonk's Adventure again after posting before, I did find it would be somewhat possible to press the buttons very rapidly in order for Bonk to perform flips and jumps quickly (but it's hurts the thumbs a little). Oh. You mean like the ones Paranoia Dragon (https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=2440.0) has :wink:? I can see 8).
No problem for Battle Royale. You can make videos out of it whenever you're ready. I just wish to see how the game plays out in its five-player wrestle matches. I have a few other requests too: I would like to hear music videos for Ordyne and Shockman/Schbinin Man 2, and if you can, I would like to see gameplay footage for Godzilla (perferably with King Ghidora in action in Vs. mode :D). I'd love to see how this looks (and maybe contrast it to other Godzilla games, too).
I've caught a spelling error in Alien Crush. In the second sentence for the Overview, the word "modeled" is spelled with two L's. Double-checking in Microsoft Word, it is meant to be written with only one.

I much prefer B.C. Kid, it's far closer to the name PC Kid and makes sense.

No, not music downloads, but ROMs that run on an emulator that just play the audio (music / sound effects) from the games.

I don't have a sound test or music only ROM for Schbibin Man 2 which is a shame as there is no easy way to get the music other than recording it off the game in action. That's something that I'll have to consider.

Nope, 'modeled' is the American spelling, 'modelled' is perfectly correct. :wink: Thanks for pointing it out anyway.
**NEW FEATURE**
Game manuals often contain great artwork and now you can view a selection of them in PDF format. They range from around 1.5 MB to 2.5 MB so may take a short time to download on slow connections. More will be added over time.
Game manuals added: Dracula X, Gunbuster Vol 1, PC Denjin, PC Genjin and Schbibin Man 2.
US cover scans added (thanks to OceanBlueKirby) for Alien Crush, Legendary Axe, Legendary Axe II and Ninja Spirit.

Yay =D>!
Is it just me, though, or is the Alien Crush cover a bit crooked (it looked straight to me in the scan ](*,)). I see that The Legendary Axe and The Legendary Axe II still have their "color errors", but I guess they weren't a big enough deal to affect the image :P. You done a great job patching up the crevices on Ninja Spirt 8).
If that's the case, then I might be able to scan the insides of US manuals for you. You are accepting US manuals for this, correct? There are some nice-looking drawings of the enemies for the back page of Dungeon Explorer.
What about the scans for the actual HuCards/TurboChips? Do you have plans for these sometime soon? I'd be more than happy to scan them (even their backside message) for you if you need them.

I've double checked the Alien Crush cover and it is bang on straight, so it must be an optical illusion.
My priority in manuals is Japanese originals, but there is no reason that I couldn't add US alternatives as well. The scans for these need to be 150dpi, so I would suggest anyone else scan them at 300dpi and send them to me uncropped and untouched if possible (scanning as double page spreads except front and back covers which need to be individual).
I have in the past considered scanning both HuCARDs and CDs, but at the moment that's not something I will be adding soon as there are too many other gaps that I have to fill first.
And a few more:

On top of that, I've noticed something strange on the Yo, Bro entry. For the Maker information, it was put as "ICOM/CAMP CALIFORNIA." As I recalll, there isn't a developer by the name of Camp California, but it was a game that was made by the same company. If it was meant to be a reference to the other game, it's probably best to put it in the Overview in a sentence ("US made skateboarding action game from the creators of Camp California").
Thank you NecroPhile.
As for the Yo, Bro issue, that confuses me too, however it is clearly stated on the title screen.

Sunteam! I thought of a couple of more footages that I would like to see presented!
Now that you've gotten a gameplay video of Godzilla made, I would like to hear its soundtrack, also, if you're able to retain it on your own (seeing that the Toho Kingdom (http://www.tohokingdom.com/cd/godzilla_blegends_turbo.htm) only lists the tracks for it, I wanted to hear the other music pieces, too).
I'm trying to write down all of the lyrics for It Came from the Desert's main theme (https://www.superpcenginegrafx.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31&sid=f2e9c8478ea52ab496c7f6f31c7dc44c), but had recently learned a full version of it plays during the credits. If you can, would you record the entire song within a PC Engine Music video, along with other tracks? It would be greatly appreciated.
There are 2 tracks of the song on the disc, one is 1:07, the other is 2:27, which is the one used on the video I already did.

OK, thanks for letting me know :). I guess all I need to do now for that is to correct any of the lyrics that I cannot understand properly. However, to make it complete, putting up the shortened version of the song can be helpful.
This is probably a stupid question, but the resolution on all the screenshots is tremendous, how do you manage that? Even on scart RGB converted systems i can't get a display like that!

Ah, you spotted the trick link to see if you were paying attention :-"
I've been thinking a little bit lately: since you've done a soundtrack for The Legendary Axe II, would you be able to upload the music for The Legendary Axe, also. I'm planning on getting to this game sometime soon, as I've been curious of what its other tracks sound like.
I've been listening to some of the music pieces of Splatterhouse last night, also. I was wondering if you'll be able to put up tracks for the PC Engine game also (would be good to put up for Halloween, also :wink:).
Splatterhouse is doable, just not in time for Halloween. Unless I can find a music rip or sound test for Legendary Axe, that is less likely to happen, which is a shame as it's really nice music.

Hmm. I don't have much information on those girly ones (in fact I've never heard of them), are they unofficial in the way of 'Games Express' titles? (I'll do a search myself when I have 5 mins spare).
The others are fan produced games and I've considered this before. At the moment my opinion is on the side of them being too far from official and 'of the time' to be listed, but I'm happy to hear arguments to add them.

Not even that. They're just CD+Gs.
Quote from: guyjin on 05/26/2009, 06:43 AMNot even that. They're just CD+Gs.
They're similar in function, but they were programmed specifically for the Duo, booting like a game rather than through the CD+G option of the CD player. CD+G's probably would've been better, as then you'd at least have some tunes to enjoy while ogling pixelated boobies.

4. Ankoku Densetsu

My master of the obvious thoughts on the matter:
1. Ghouls n Ghosts - A popular "classic" franchise that folks are interested in, across platforms.
2. Adventure Island - Ditto
3. Dracula X - Ditto, plus Castlevania fans are ravenous for info on everything :)
4. Ankoku Densetsu - Hmmmmmm, confined to the PCE universe, this must be generating interest simply because it is a damn fun game.
5. Winds of Thunder - shoot-em-up fans know that the Sega-CD version can't compare.
Hmm, I still wouldn't expect Adventure Island to be that popular.
Anyway, new updates:

Which one are you talkin' aboot? I'm still seeing the quick reply box and the normal reply button and resulting screens.
Seems to be an IE thing, when the reply input box (not quick reply) gets full enough to display a scrolly bar, I have some issues with clicking at the bottom of the text as the view keeps bouncing back up again.

This is a great idea. I haven't checked the minisite yet, but I'm surprised no one has replied to state the obvious: yay!
Does Ultrabox 1 have the scooter mini-game? Oh, I suppose I'll have to look for myself :)
I think I have all but one of the Ultrabox installments... have you found any neat music/chiptunes in them? I can't recall anything too exciting, but I don't think I was paying much attention to that when I was exploring them.

The scooter game is in Ultrabox 2. I have Ultrabox-fatigue from playing No.1 so much so I'm taking a couple of weeks off before I start work on number 2. I've not come across any exceptional chip music so far, but then I played No.1 to death so I'm kind of sick of the sound of it now!

Ha! Ultrabox-fatigue, indeed. Keep your ear open for any music :)
For some stupid reason, I liked the scooter minigame (Lord knows why). I'm gonna pull that bad boy out--who knows, maybe I'll play some Yo' Bro! as well.
Hey, maybe I just like scooter/skateboard games?
Too bad the scooter game controls better than Yo' Bro!

Cotton has some of the most beautiful sprite animation Ive seen.

Quick request, would you be able to add a mechanism that allowed one to sort games via a filter, such as STYLE, FORMAT, RATING etc.
It would be super useful. At the moment I'm doing a Google site search to achieve a similar result. E.g. "site:http://pcengine.co.uk STYLE: SHOOT 'EM UP" (http://www.google.com.au/search?rlz=1C1GGLS_enAU365AU365&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=site:http://pcengine.co.uk+STYLE:+SHOOT+'EM+UP) - to display all the shoot'em ups listed.

Wow! I really like the look of that one. A lot of your video clips have helped me decide which games to buy or now buy. Along with your rating system, that says Try It, Avoid IT, or Buy It. Nice way of displaying everything, and helping others determine what games are worth it. Keep em coming. Ya cause me to spend my money, but I love em!! lol
SD2 also has some great music, making it even more worthwhile.
I used to use a 5 star rating, but it's impossible to be consistent with that, plus people's opinion of what 3/5 means, for example, may differ considerably.

It's a pity I can't scan the whole thing, but it's big and so tightly bound that I wouldn't be able to get a good scan of the pages.

Hello, making my first official post here.
I'd like to ask, Paul, if you would apreciate a little insight into some of the games on your list that haven't gotten a review yet. I've looked at a couple marked "avoid" and some of them weren't that bad. Like Chris' adventure for example, the only thing off with that game was it's obsession with batshit hard moving platforms.

I had mixed feelings about Chris's Adventure, but in the end decided that the game was just shoddy in most respects. Even playing it when it was released it was a bit crap. I think I may have been a little harsh with my rating, but it's far too easy now to give games a pass for being crappy when they are retrogames, because you don't expect Xbox quality graphics and modern design from them.
But everyone has a different view and I'm happy to add other people's opinions - it makes it more balanced. If you want to write a little something, just email it to me, or PM it here and I'll put it up.
Okay, I think I will.
Working on something, probably on God Panic and Chris' adventure.
I noticed you don't have any sceens for The Tv Show. I happen to have it so I could send you a coupple screengrabs, like the title scene and character select.

That would be great...several varied in-game screens and a title shot are what I usually go for if that's possible (clean emu shots only please) :)
I can get you game screens for all the characters if need be.
I just can't get very far in the game though. Mostly cause around rounds 4-6 you get a game puzzle that takes alot of trial and error to come through.
Here ya go
Character select (pity it doesn't show all the characters as visible)

Thanks! I'll add them once I've sorted myself out a bit.
Real sorry I couldn't get better picks.
No worries, I'd rather have some than none, whatever they are like.

If you haven't a descreen setting on your scanner software, just do them at 500dpi and I'll despeckle and shrink them to 300dpi to mimimize the pattern you get from scanned print.

The use of the term 'Fighting Game' is either an Americanism or a more modern invention. They have always been beat 'em ups to me.

Hey Paul, just wanted to say how awesome your site has become over the years.
Some comments:
I think one of the things missing is an easy way for readers to submit reviews and rate games. Emailing is all well and good, but people are lazy. Also, I think it would be amazing to adopt a rating system. It would be cool to copy PC Engine Fan's style: offer a few different categories for each game, as well as an aggregated score.
What do you think?

I think they are awesome ideas.
I also think I have absolutely no technical knowledge of how to implement such ideas, otherwise I would have had comment boxes and user rating a long time ago. If you look behind the scenes of my site, it's all made of cardboard and tape rather than polished metal, if you know what I mean :)

If you can grab them via Magic Engine and try to get at least 6, including 1 title screen and the rest in-game, that would be awesome.

Don't say that! It's a splendid game. (https://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcg0.png)
Agreed - it's a blast to play. :D But that music gets stuck in my head for days!
It's some of my fave Huey music ever.
I've been playing Dragon Spirit off and on for the past few days and the music from those first few levels is so awesome I had to have it on my computer so I could listen to at while I work. So last night I figured out how to make that happen. Here is a link to the thread (https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=11308.msg214950#msg214950).

Paul, you want some screens from later rounds in Digital Champ ? I just have em lying around, so.....
Also in your description you could mention how you have to fight the same three people at least four times. I mean I got to m match 10 and saw the same pasty asshole from the begining for the fourth time and I was like "Screw this, I'm going home."

I finaly beat it, so I can provide the fourth (and last) opponent and the ending. Also features Mike, the other black guy you don't have.

Word. I checked the site and Paul personal site and I'm still not seeing anything new? Hidden in plain sight or what?
Watching that gameplay vid for Jim Power on the PC Engine Bible, I couldn't help but notice the melody in the tune was very similar to the music from the Lava Pit stage of Ys III. Really, it's a blatant rip-off. Not as good but still pretty nice.

I didn't find anything either (not even on the flip side), other than a mention of printed PCE Gamers. C'mon, Paul! Inquiring minds want to know!!!
I think its the CorkBoard??? I have never noticed that.. or is it the Logo????

How is the PDF opening up for you? Mine opens up in google docs, since I've set it that way. If you are using the embedded Adobe plug-in you should have a save as option, some time right clicking on the page will give you the option as well.
It's opening in google docs; if I right click a calendar page and try save as, it gives me just the image as a png. Yes, I am still le dumb.

Are you still working with DSL internet service? That must take a while to upload the videos. How much bandwidth and server space are you allotted for your site? The software bible site has become a to go to site for info on pce games these days.
I have 20Gb a month limit I think, but putting stuff on Youtube means that doesn't affect my website bandwith fortunately.

After playing some Fray CD Xak Gaiden (http://www.pcengine.co.uk/HTML_Games/Fray_CD-Xak_Gaiden.htm) last night, I realized that this fun game needs more info on your site. I'd be willing to help you with information on it if you need, but since I only play on an actual console, I don't know about screenshots... Let me know if there's anything I can get you on this game.
A review would be cool if you want to write one.

I can do that. I'll plan to play through the game in its entirety in the near future and write one up.
Bardoly, you can use Magic Engine for screenshots if ya want. :)

You could pick up an $80 DVD recorder off Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Magnavox-ZC320MW8B-Progressive-Manufacturer-Refurbished/dp/B00773DB4A/ref=pd_cp_e_1) and skip screenshots all-together by recording actual gameplay. :)

You know, I've only ever tried emulation twice in my life - NES emulation on a Mac laptop which was given to me about 10 years ago. The emulator and game roms were already loaded on the hard drive. I played most of the way through Zelda II before packing the whole thing up, never to be used again. Then about 5 years ago I got an R4 flash cart for the DS to play DS roms on my actual DS. I was happy with it for about a year, then yet again, I put it up and haven't used it since. Maybe if someone could sit down with me in person and load up the emulator and roms into my computer, help me pick out appropriate controllers, and everything, then I would be willing to try emulation again, but for some reason, it just doesn't 'click' with me.
I still play my Game Boy games (on my Game Boy Advance), my Game Boy Advance games (on my DS Lite), my DS games (on my DS Lite), my NES games (on my NES console), my SNES games (on my SNES console), and my TurboGrafx games (on either my TG-16 console or on my Duo). My only game system which doesn't get any play time is my Sega Game Gear (with 60 games) and my Gamecube (which I picked up for $10 at a yard sale, and I've never even plugged in to test yet. I mostly just got it because I want to get a Game Boy Player). The aforementioned game systems are ALL of the game systems that I have, and I don't currently have any desire to get another console (maybe a Wii for 4-player Mario cart action with the steering wheel controllers).
That said, if someone could shoot Paul some great screenshots of Fray, I would greatly appreciate it.

If Pcedai stays down one thing I would love to see on the software bible is the Japanese text for game titles. It made it very useful for searching for videos and guides for pce games and looking for games on yja.

I am sure that you know about these sites already however they list both English and Japanese game titles:
C-Games: http://www.c-games.info/index.php?id=004&platforma=PCE-CD
PCECP: http://pcecp.com
Redummp: http://redump.org/discs/system/pce/
Video Game Den: http://www.videogameden.com
and chrismcovell dumped the PCE_Catalogue (in Japanese)
https://www.chrismcovell.com/texts/PCE_Catalogue-Lines.html
That's great, thanks (I only get garble on the PCECP site but plenty of others to use).
PCECP seems to be doing the same for me. (Windows 8 64bit)
I have tired installing the Japanese language pack and the Japanese language option for Firefox. This may be an issue with PCECP as other Japanese sites show fine.
Can someone confirm if they can see the Kanji Name field correctly on PCECP who has their PC set to native Japanese?
General Tip for you:
If you are copying between web pages and your PC, notepad etc. You will need to change your language support options for non-Unicode programs to Japanese. Otherwise when you copy text from the web page to notepad the text will change to blocks and ?????????
To change this:
Control panel / Region / Administrative and click Change System Locale and set this to Japanese
(note region is 'Region and languages' in Windows 7)
However changing this does have a side effect!
As you have changed the 'support option for non-Unicode programs' to Japanese it does what is says on the tin! So for example in DOS '\' will now show as:
/dosnq.jpg
Adding now in progress...
I just get garbage text over at pcep as well on windows 7 64 bit
Phew, done!
Japanese text titles added for (almost) every game.
Fantastic days work there :-)
My brain and arm hurts now!
awesome! Thanks a lot I'm sure I'm not the only one who finds that stuff useful!
Hey, have you ever considered adding in the Special Version HuCard games (i.e. Final Soldier Special Version)?
Video game Den has a good list here (http://www.videogameden.com/article.htm?list?hu_sp).
I would like to have more information on them in an easily accessible location, and adding them to your site would be great!
I might add the Special versions although it will probably be a short note in the existing pages as there's not much to say. There are still a few titles I have to add and have just not got round to yet (such as the Karaoke discs).

I personally would appreciate a separate page for each of the Special Version games. One reason is that I believe that some of the Special Version games are literally only 2-5 minute games, so they would mostly only be interesting for collectors, while some of them are full version games with extra options, which would then be more interesting for gamers.
New page added for Pyramid Plunder.

Paul,
I thought it rather strange when I was looking at The Tower of Druaga on your website. The review of the game on your site indicates that it is a decent (if quirky) game, but you have the game marked 'Avoid'. Is this 'Avoid' your opinion and the review someone else's?
By the way, thanks again for the great website. I use it often.

Perhaps I've not made these sections very clear - the 'You say...' sections are reviews sent in by other people which don't always agree with mine. Maybe I should change that to 'reader opinion' or something.

No I had a bunch of stuff recorded and screenshotted for volume 2, but I kept looking at the pageviews and it seemed nobody was interested. It takes a massive effort to sort that stuff out and it was shelved until such a time when I have more time/inclination to work on it.

However, I know exactly nothing about all that goofy web programming malarky unless it's wysiwyg so I'm powerless to do it. And the months it would take to learn and implement are probably better spent adding content and making PCE games for you folks.

To be fair, one of my plans is to make a bigger Search button near the top, maybe open a new page with search tips. I use similar phrases for game type so searching "SHOOT 'EM UP" for example will give decent results.

That is great, nice surreal vibe to it. If enough of them existed I could definitely see letting a playlist of them run on my old HDTV that I converted into a big old digital picture frame.
Keep up the great work on the site, one of my all time favorites. I wish the music was hosted as individual tracks somewhere.
BRILLIANT.
Simply brilliant.
From TubeYou comment:
QuoteSTOP EVERYTHING ELSE YOU ARE DOING AND MAKE MORE OF THESE!
This is a brilliant extension of the Pixellence feature that would occasionally appear in the PCE fanzine. I would not hesitate in moving beyond character sprites or revisiting Vigilante (in the future) to showcase the other frames of animation for nearly all of the sprites (indeed, the bosses had several unique frames of animation).
Finally, the soundscape (atmospheric, brooding) version of the chiptune perfectly matched the presentation. Don't change this aspect at all. I'm glad the shrill, harsh IREM sound, albeit in altered form, accompanies this art. :)
I have made more, they will be rolled out in the next few months, and I think they are getting better each time.
I was really happy the way the sound felt when processed like this - not so much with Vigilante, but with future ones it really sounds like a steady breathing which really gives them a nice vibe.
Yay!!!! I am eagerly waiting for the FUTURE POWA to be published on TubeYou.

Yes, that would be fantastic! You might want to send a sample first so I can make sure they're gonna be OK. They need to be 300dpi. If your printer has a descreen option then turn it on. If it doesn't, can you scan at 600dpi? Might be best to try a scan of a cover rather than a spine as it's easier to check quality - also, if you crop them down, please try not to chop off anything.
I have a bunch of outstanding files still to add, so I can confirm what I need later.

Sorry I haven't gotten back to ya. I did a test run with my scanner, and the quality is just absolutely poopy. I can't really see where to change the settings on it either, so I am wondering if there is a way I can send it to you or a forum member to have them scan it for ya if you would like :)

Hey Paul, any plans for Volume 2 to the PCE game review compilation you published a year or two ago?
I loved the first book and would like to see a second volume, too. I think there are still articles left from the PDF magazines that weren't published in printed form yet, were they?
Volume 2 likelihood is undetermined at present.
Writing that stuff is reeeealy hard and time consuming. I've currently got Saber Rider upcoming as well as the Pixellence book and weekly videos to make for YouTube, and Grelox, and etc etc.
Yes, I'd like to do a volume 2, but can't say when.
Regarding the articles, some are exclusive to the web based zine, so anything that appears in volume 2 will be 100% new stuff.

You. Or me. Or somebody has to make a chiptune vs. Red Book vs. __________ comparison mp3/video.
We have a few candidates....Daisenpu is one of them. Sidearms. Raiden (but the Red Book is orchestral...but that would still be kool to compare)...

Keep working on the pixel art for the games :)

Regarding the articles, some are exclusive to the web based zine, so anything that appears in volume 2 will be 100% new stuff.
I've got to add that I loved Volume 1, and would also love to see an eventual volume 2. Do what you need to though, as I know it'll be worth the wait :D

That is looking great!!! A lot of tedious/meticulous work goes into something like that no doubt and few have the staying power to press on for that sort of thing, so the fact that you're still at it for all these years shows exceptional dedication. I notice how you even still update your PC Engine Bible thread over at the Magic Engine forums. ;)
Yep, nobody reads the Magic Engine forums but I update them anyway :)
That looks fantastic! :D

Oh, boy. I want one. I need WAY more gaming books for my coffee table, and WAY, WAY more for the Turbo / PC Engine in general.
Man this looks awesome! Do you still sell that other book that had either Ys or Star Parodier on the cover? I remember you retired the Star Parodier cover, can't remember if you still make those

Received the book yesterday, what a beauty. Loved it as I loved the previous one, and will love the next one for sure. Thanks for allowing us to have/read a book on the turbo/PcE, in 2015 !! Who could have imagined that back in the dayz ?!

I still remember how fun it was to finally hear the final song...the ending animations weren't spectacular, but they were well-earned.
I never thought this soundtrack would be enduring.... but it is.
:)
Copy & Pasted from TubeYou:
"I was rarely drawn to "happy" upbeat songs, but this soundtrack is just SO DAMN GOOD that I don't feel embarrassed for loving it. LOVE IT. There is a sweeping, majestic quality to every song that is so damn fitting for a driving game—except the horrible sound effects in this game (screeching breaks, lame engine) somewhat mar the experience. So damn cheerful, this soundtrack. Too cheerful. It makes me cringe, yet it warms my soul. :) "
You just like it because one of the tunes sounds like Kato Chan & Ken Chan.

It was the game that truly sold me on the PCE back in my early days of collecting for the system, along with Dragon Spirit and the amazing R-Type conversion. I think I can safely attribute those three games to kindling my lifelong love for the system and passion for Japanese import gaming in general, so the nostalgia factor is beyond words. Dragon Spirit has by far the better music, but there's still a few great tracks to be found in Gunhed.

Gunhed was maybe the first game I saw running on the PCE and it did look impressive. But PC Genjin was the one that sold me on the machine. And I never liked shoot 'em ups at all until I played Super Star Soldier. Gunhed is flawed - the pacing is terrible on the first few levels and the music doesn't pack the punch that it should.

Sylphia, madou monogatari and brain dead, were sold with the registration card?
By my hands passed for years, many of them, and none has had reg card, some friends of mine also have them, with spine, but without registration card and on the internet there is no picture with her neither in Japan, yahoo, ebay, europe , nor in auctions sold or current.

Yes: Sylphia, Madou Monogatari and Dead of the Brain were sold with registration cards. Slyphia also included a sheet of stickers (simply the "Sylphia" logo—no character art), Dead of the Brain included a small coloring book with three crayons ("blood red", "yellow spleen" and "green mucas")...
I do not believe any additional items were included with those titles.

If you weren't such an idiot, you'd understand the three games you're asking about (one of which wasn't even mentioned in your original query thread) are pricey, uncommon games that not that many pcefx members own.

By my hands passed for years, many of them, and none has had reg card, some friends of mine also have them, with spine, but without registration card and on the internet there is no picture with her neither in Japan, yahoo, ebay, europe , nor in auctions sold or current.
Thanks to who knows how to answer a question, we will see if anyone knows how to respond to a QUESTION.
