MERRY XMAS, comrade.

The plan is for me is to avoid all the humans who will be swarming around for the upcoming week.

Thankfully, I don't think this year will be as hectic/crazy as previous years...so that's good.



Also, I plan to recycle PCE XMAS photos from 2013...

The order of the male DIN plugs match the order of the pads on the ground:

L to R: PCE Master Blaster 3-button, White PCE Turbo, Core Grafx, TurboDuo, TG-16.

IMG

NOTE: the plastic housing for TG-16 is *not* bigger than the PCE counterparts...it's an illusion due to the DIN vs. mini-DIN...

IMG

...again, it looks as if you could use the square-ish PCE plug for the BattleTap, but you can't use it (and I tried to jam it in there like a fool one day).

IMG

Not surprisingly, the BattleTap itself uses the "tiny round" plug (seen adjacent to Tap).

NOTE: I use a TG-16 —> PCE adapter to use the TG-16 pad with BattleTap.

Ok, digi.k inspired me...

Also, I am 100% guilty of procrastinating this morning.

Instead of helping my wife clean the house for a stoopid party we are hosting this afternoon, I decided to set up a photoshoot with some old cards I found in a box of dusty cables.

Thank you in advance.

This is what I used,

I only had the 3.5mm to female AV. But that works fine too. Just connect the ends with your regular AV cables.

IMG



To get it all working I had to get the SNES mini's HDMI signal downscaled. So I used one of those cheap chinese HDMI to AV converters.


IMG
Yes, thanks for confirming. :)

I forgot you needed the extra step of HDMI —> composite, but since I have composite for all my video sources, I don't have to worry about HDMI (yet).

I want to play some VHS VCR via TE/GT.... I found some old home movies at my parents... I thought it would be amusing for my brothers to see it displayed on a TE.

That's awesome!

I'm on train and rushing to bring kids to soccer, but I'll try to find all the ads I remember from PCE mags:

QuoteGAMES FEATURED ON JUPITER...▲

The same advertisement ran in four successive issues of Gekkan PCE (July, August, September, October), with only slight differences concerning the featured CD-ROM titles...

JULY 1990: Ultra Box. Super Darius.
AUGUST 1990: Ultra Box. Valis III.
SEPTEMBER 1990: Last Armageddon. Valis III.
OCTOBER 1990: Last Armageddon. Valis III.


The selection of games featured in this advertisement suggest that NEC was not simply playing to its strengths (Super Darius was a desirable arcade port in the very popular shoot-em-up genre; Valis III was a solid platformer with extensive cinema scenes to flesh out its story) but attempting to highlight unique entries in the CD•ROM2 library as well. UltraBox, for example, represented a new breed of software for video game consoles. Each installment of Ultra Box (six were released in total) offered an eclectic collection of exclusive mini-games, multi-media experiences, and a digital catalog of all licensed HuCARD/CD games. This catalog of games was updated with each subsequent release.
Last Armageddon was originally released for PC-88 and MSX computers, but later ported to many platforms.

QuoteDeserts of Mars Poster
features a magnificent, if menacing, skeleton-wyvern soaring in a bleak, barren world...
 Deserts of Mars Poster (2600x1636 .jpg) ▼

MENACING: The CD•ROM2+IFU+CoreGrafx hardware easily evades the fearsome skeleton-wyvern...
Valis III was an obvious choice for promoting the CD•ROM2 format, since it was well-received by critics and players alike. Surprisingly, NEC featured Power League III, a HuCARD game, in this month's advertisement as well. This marked a break with tradition, since all prior ads promoting CD-ROM hardware featured CD-ROM software. The decision to include Power League III in the ad is a testament to the sheer popularity of baseball in general—and Hudson's Power League series in particular—with Japanese gamers.
NOTE: I wrote the commentary several years ago and will gladly fix/revise/update it...so feel free provide feedback. Thanks. Yes, I liked this stuff, but I got corny when I wrote about it.

I still like PUSH IT TO THE LIMIT, though. That has an "edge" (ha!) that is lacking from American Dream.

BUT YOU ARE CORRECT, "American Dream" is so 80's it hurts.

If you thought that was bad, there was a super shitty condition TG16 duffle bag that sold on Instagram (of all places) for $250! [-(

F*ck.

I wanted the duffle bag, watch, water bottle, wallet, etc. etc. etc.

I had the little pamphlet catalog as a kid and I remember thinking that $$$ will always go towards buying a new game.

NOW, however, I wish I bought this silly shite when it was cheap on ebay many moons ago.

I have never held a TG-16 water bottle, but I know that it will look great (and smell toxic).

As Paranoia_Dragon already stated: THIS PROMO IS THE SEXIEST TG-16 MARKETING in the cosmos.

Too sexy?

No, it can *never* be too sexy.

NOTE: One of the dancers is so goofy, though, he just doesn't belong (sorry, Dancer #2!)

He looks like he is wearing a costume (the clothes are alien to him), whilst the other dancers are comfortable in their hats/clothes.
