Quote from: dshadoff on 01/10/2019, 01:46 PMI wish somebody would make a good wireless aftermarket adapter for the PCE/Turbo.
Something like the Gamecube wireless, or the 8BitDo Retro Receivers...
I have an adapter so I can use a PS2 controller on the Duo. I never tried using a cordless PS2 controller with it but it seems like it should work.

Haven't tried it but I think it is cool that it comes with an adapter for Duo/PC Engine.

Sign me up please.

Kudos to you for the raffle!

We know who made it actually, he visits here now and then, dshadoff (David)
I didn't know that fun little fact.

That cover art is way better than the PC Engine version! I really enjoyed the game in the arcade but the PC Engine version was lackluster. Hopefully they did a better job on the Mega Drive version for you.

You must be excited since your avatar is "Bubble Bobble".

Quote from: MasonSushi on 04/19/2018, 09:16 AMThanks. I like to have the originals, but having some cheap repros of expensive titles to hold me over until I get the original might not be a bad idea. I don't like the idea of using CDR's, so I wont go down that route. Also I didn't see disc based repros on that site, just HU cards and I have all of those.

Thanks guys. Awesome peeps here.
He recently advertised a sale of disc repros on the facebook page but it looks like it ended...

Order ANY 3 CD games for 50$, or any 6 games for 90$

Quote from: hoobs88 on 04/18/2018, 02:25 PMHave you contacted Jodi from Turbo Reproductions? You can probably get some sweet reproduction discs for a fraction of the actual cost.
Does he have a site?
http://www.tg16pcemods.com/reproduction-hucards.html

He also has a facebook group called "Turbo Reproductions"

It's been so long since I pre-ordered so I forgot...is the soundtrack included or do we have to pay extra for it? If so, can I order the soundtrack and pay the difference?

Quote from: hoobs88 on 04/11/2018, 10:28 AMWhat's the difference between the regular and gold version of Yokai Dochouki?
The game code itself is the same.  The case and huey are gold colored and the back page of the manual is different.
Any photos of this?
#21
Quote from: guest on 04/10/2018, 10:58 AMSome missing ones: Final Soldier and Bomberman '93 special hueys, Yokai Dochouki and Power League gold hueys, Madou Monogatari, Terra Cresta II, whichever Super Real Mahjong is teh rarez naughty version, the six kids games for the ten key thingy, and some of the LA games (Vajra 2, Akuma no Shinban, Zapping, and ?).

Some that're getting there and will go over $150 on a bad day: Aldynes, Double Dragon II, Hana Taka Daka, and Terraforming.
What's the difference between the regular and gold version of Yokai Dochouki?

I couldn't find a photo of the PC Engine LT connected to the Super CD-ROM system so pretend that the Core Grafx is an LT (in the photo from the link below). The left power input has a short cable that connects to the Super CD-ROM system which leaves the right power input for the power supply but if the LT is used by itself (without the Super CD-ROM system) I believe you can use either input for the power supply.

Can't remember if it is Core Grafx or Core Grafx II that I have an extra of. Send me a PM to remind me to look for it after I get out of work later.
#25
I had a controller where one of the screw holes was stripped and wouldn't fasten the back cover to the front cover because the screw couldn't pull it close enough together which resulted in one of the nearby buttons not able to make contact with the PCB. Not sure if that is happening for you but it seems like you've exhausted all of the other possibilities.

PCECP.com has a list of all of the games for PC Engine and TG-16. That might be a good start.
#32
Quote from: guest on 10/23/2017, 10:11 AMWhy not a Run button?  It's not like 'start' was an industry standard, nor were buttons 'a' and 'b' something automatically expected and better than 'I' and 'II'.
Why the reverse placement of II/I and B/A buttons? Shouldn't they be in numerical or alphabetical order?

Alternatively, you could get some 3D printed cases and affix some custom made spine labels.

Quote from: tbone3969 on 09/26/2017, 09:25 AMWhat does a working loose LT system go for you think?
I got mine about 9 years ago for $800. They seem more scarce nowadays (or maybe it is because I stopped looking).

The stereo effect during "R-type" and "L-type" was cool!

Quote from: hoobs88 on 08/12/2017, 12:33 PMI posted 3 ringtone tracks from Lords of Thunder on a ringtone website. I'll try to find it and send you the link.
These 3 tracks were posted on mobiles24.com
Just do search for "Lords of Thunder" to find them. You used to be able to click on a members profile and see all of the ringtones that they uploaded but it appears as if that option is no longer available. I have no idea what the other 8 ringtones are that I posted or how to find them.

Edit: After navigating the site for a few minutes, I found all 11 tracks. Here is the link http://www.mobiles24.co/search/user/hoobs/free-mp3-ringtones

Quote from: ParanoiaDragon on 08/12/2017, 06:23 PMMy main ringtone right now, is the main overworld theme from Dungeon Explorer 1.  For when my dad calls, since I work for him, I have the boss theme from Bonk 1 & 2.  My notification noise is currently the tune that plays in Neutopia when you acquire an item.  However, I haven't found a way to make notifications have different tunes, such as 1 for text messages, 1 for voice mails, etc.
I wouldn't mind the "Neutopia acquire an item" ringtone if you could share that.

Dragonforce - Reaching Into Infinity. I'm going to see them in concert on Friday.

Do they still put the GameDude Logo stickers on the game/case/manual that is impossible to remove?

I read an article about that place recently. Nice to see some photos of it! Bubble Bobble and Crystal Castles! I should visit there sometime.

My Turbo Express has been modded with the switchless version. Most of the modders on this forum perform that mod too. If the previous owner stated that it was region modded, but the new owner doesn't see a switch, I would think it is a switchless mod.
#47
Quote from: LowRes on 05/26/2017, 10:38 AMI found out the little switch in the battery compartment is to cut off the AV out from headphone jack so it doesn't interfere with the sound when actually using headphones.  I originally thought it was a region mod switch but I was wrong.  From what I can tell it actually doesn't have any region mod installed. 
The most common Turbo Express region mod is the "switchless" one. Press and hold the 'Select' button while powering on to change regions. If that doesn't work, it hasn't been region modded.
#49
Quote from: Opethian on 04/28/2017, 10:20 AMcurious where you put the switch for the region mod?
Me too. And what would you charge to have this service done?
