Also, what is the little I/II switch for?
Quote from: guest on 03/29/2017, 12:40 PMIf you need to brighten it to remove the yellow I recommend this thread for a bit of light reading:Thanks. I have read a guide online for whitening a PC Engine using only pure liquid bleach. No sunlight or anything. When I get the gamebit I ordered (required to open it), the first thing I'm gonna do is give the plastics a thorough cleaning in warm soapy water. I'll go on from there if required.

Quote from: guest on 03/29/2017, 09:58 AMThat's good. I'd just feel a bit guilty if someone got banned in a thread I made.Quote from: Artabasdos on 03/28/2017, 02:54 AMNice, but be careful! This might be considered promoting piracy. IIRC that's against the rules.Long timers like esteban know what's up.
The rules prohibit roms and isos being directly linked; that's it. Nobody has prohibited scans of manuals, case/disc art, magazines, or the like.
Quote from: Digi.k on 03/29/2017, 07:47 AMthe original white pc engine don't have any Audio Video connection except for RF. you can buy an AV booster that slots into the back that gives you the composite RCA connections or a later model that adds battery back up RAM.Yeah, mine just has RF. There's a bloke in Canada that does an addon that does RGB through it using the expansion port.
Or you can mod the console for either s-vid, RGB or even mod the AV booster
The later models of the pc engine ie coregrafx, coregrafx-II, shuttle and supergrafx have AV connections to composite RCA.

Quote from: imparanoic on 03/28/2017, 11:15 PMLol indeed.Quote from: esteban on 03/27/2017, 06:37 PMalso different country have differences in meanings or context for the same word or saying,Quote from: Artabasdos on 03/27/2017, 03:32 PM"Bog standard" is used here in the States, too.Quote from: mitsuman on 03/27/2017, 03:19 PMLol. Nah, it's pretty nice actually.Quote from: Artabasdos on 03/27/2017, 02:38 PMYeah it is. Where I live saying "my duck" is a term of endearment. I have no idea why.That's weird. Where you live is weird.
It's also actually "me duck". Autocorrect changed it for whatever reason.
At least, I certainly heard it frequently enough in NJ growing up in the 80's. My peers never used it, but adults did. And two teachers.
I am not claiming that it was popular, or anything like that, but it was certainly used.
Same for "whinging" as in "stop whinging!"...now, it could be that my teachers/family had some connection to England (my grandma was born in England).
ie, UK, " dying for a fag" means i want to smoke a cigarette
but in US, " dying for a fag" means i want make a pass at a homosexual person
or example, usage of " wanker" term on US cartoon, " the simpsons

Quote from: imparanoic on 03/28/2017, 11:08 PMThe Amiga was released in the USA.Quote from: Artabasdos on 03/27/2017, 10:16 AMthere are reasonable priced pc engine pads on ebay uk, but you have to wait for them and some are listed from GBP1 or GBP5 starting prices, at the end of the day, pc engine was never released in UK, even turbo grafx wasn't really official released in uk and the prices dictates it's supply, there will always be buy now ripp off prices, just look a nes mini and it's 5 folds inflated pricesQuote from: mitsuman on 03/27/2017, 10:12 AMI bought 4 PCE controllers and a multi tap for about $70-$75 shipped from Japan. I didn't think it was too bad of a price really. That's roughly $12-$15 per piece.I just bought a 2 button original PCE controller from a Japanese seller for $17. The English sellers are taking the piss.
even computer exchange or very occasionally then game or gamestation has odd pc engine items, but the prices won't be cheap as pc engine is quite rare in UK, just like seeing spectum 128k or commadore amiga or even worse amstad gx4000 in usa,
Quote from: elmer on 03/28/2017, 07:23 PMHey ... you can't ban esteban ... that manual and labels are far too nice!As amusing as you may think that suggestion is, if this site runs off a 3rd party host, even those relatively benign posts could be enough to breach the hoster's rules, therefore likely leading to a suspension at best. They won't give a shit about the wink-wink attitudes between forum members.
Thanks for those!

Quote from: Otaking on 02/25/2016, 06:35 PMWhen it comes to video games, as said above this my favorite subject.Probably because most kids owned a Megadrive, Amiga 500, Master System, C64, or some Speccy variant in the U.K. back then.
That's why I love old fanzines, it's like a window portal back into that time. The one Esteban linked to above is a perfect example.
Through the 16 bit era the PC Engine and the grey import scene was massive in the UK, but for some reason I don't know, there seems to be a lack of any community that wants to reminisce about those days. I'm jealous of Shubibiman who has the French Necstasy forum. I would love a UK equivalent.
Here's a couple of threads about the UK scene. It has links to other threads which had loads of magazine & fanzine scans which unfortunately mostly appear to have now gone from where they were hosted.

Quote from: majors on 03/27/2017, 09:18 AMI can understand the pragmatic appeal of an Everdrive. I still prefer physical carts, and I'm in no hurry. I can hold on and find good deals. Japanese sellers are also usually way cheaper than the Western scumbags and their fucking ridiculous OTT prices.Quote from: Artabasdos on 03/21/2017, 04:24 PMThanks, but the Everdrive doesn't appeal to me. I LOVE owning the real things!Well...a TED is physical and tangible...it even cost real money. Let's see how you feel about flash drives after you start hunting down games
I'd say 95% of the Everdrive owners here also have a large library of real games. It's worth it for the 2-3 uber $ games like MC and Coryoon. Each individual does have different needs, such as me, the TED is convenient when going to conventions since I do not have to lug all my Hu's plus if stolen, it's replaceable much easier.
Quote from: mitsuman on 03/27/2017, 10:12 AMI bought 4 PCE controllers and a multi tap for about $70-$75 shipped from Japan. I didn't think it was too bad of a price really. That's roughly $12-$15 per piece.I just bought a 2 button original PCE controller from a Japanese seller for $17. The English sellers are taking the piss.
Quote from: guest on 03/27/2017, 10:00 AMThere are five first party 2-button pads plus several third party and misc controllers, including the Ave Pad 3, which are all cheaper than any 6-button controller:Hmm. On eBay UK under "Buy It Now" it's cheaper to buy 6 button controllers. Wonder why it differs.

If it's cheap though I'd rather have the real thing.Quote from: Gypsy on 03/25/2017, 04:14 PMYeah I mean, I don't want to start a morality debate or anything. Is the game available to buy digitally? A very quick and lazy search on my part says no, in which case I really see zero harm in downloading it. Ultimately it's a personal decision, but I can't see paying hundreds for it.If the original creators, or at the very least the publishers or rights holders aren't making any money off of the game anymore, then I'd say it's fair game...
Quote from: guest on 03/27/2017, 01:35 AMGameplay wise, I think Tsu introduced the cancelling mechanic, didn't it? If yes, I'd choose Tsu or Sun over the predecessor anytime.Yup. I like PP1 too though.
Quote from: guest on 03/26/2017, 02:41 PMThe PCE version of Puyo Puyo Tsu is well done by the standards at the time, but it could have been better than the arcade. It runs in a higher resolution, which preserves the pixelart of the arcade. I believe that the only downgrade is the missing background in the puzzle boxes and mediocre chiptune sound quality. The imperfections stand out mostly because of how well the original game turned out on PC Engine.I don't get why they used chiptune at all on a CD. I also don't get why there's no background when the 1st game had it. Should have stuck it on a HuCard.
Quote from: Gypsy on 03/26/2017, 05:04 PMThe model 2 Saturn controller rocks. I play with both the 6 & 3 button MD controllers. Both are fantastic. I may even prefer the 6 button MD controller to the Saturn.Quote from: Artabasdos on 03/26/2017, 01:37 PMPossible I was thinking of the first Puyo on PCE. I love the Saturn controller so that's really all I play it on. Sounds like the MD version is worth checking out though.Quote from: Gypsy on 03/26/2017, 11:27 AMHaven't played it on MD. Have played it on PCE/Sat/SFC though. I'd take the disc based versions over the SFC version any day.PCE version looks rather half-arsed in that video.
Quote from: Joe Redifer on 03/17/2017, 08:06 PMPreferably decent condition, not mauled by a dog or anything. All I'd need is the console, power supply (US) but if you have a SuperGrafx pad I'll take that as well. Also you're crazy for wanting to get rid of your SuperGrafx. Name a price and maybe I'll bite.I'll sell you a picture of one.
