There are 2 different motherboard versions of the original PC Engine. The original uses 1206 size SMD components and the revision uses 0805. The revision board also has a different ground panel underneath.
The area on the casing above the controller port is different too.
I am the first person ever to make these observations. :dance:
No accompanying photos to prove your claims, help illustrate exactly what you mean ?? ;)

That would be the context of your thread I take it, that today is the 31st anniversary of the PC Engine ? And a day before Halloween, easy to remember, I didn't know that, heh.
Has it really now been 31 years since it began ? Feels hard to believe for some reason... :bonkthis:

Yes, just being a bit daft there. I was sure someone else must have spotted the difference in the 30+ years that they have been available.
I have just received another PC Engine (original) which has a chip instead of the oscillator. There is a footprint for the chip, but I have never seen one in place before, and I have bought and sold probably 25+ PC Engines.

Def not Aaron's page ;)
Oh, I didn't know that. I kinda thought he occasionally posts on it and did create it. But looking at the About page, it looks like it's not his writing. Is it yours ?
EDIT: Hmm, if I had to guess, it's Paul... :( That would explain some things...
