Thanks spamcatch2004 & Jared4781!  I'm really glad that you guys liked the program.  It didn't take any money to do the program, just 24hrs/3 days of constant work on my part

[PC-FX Discussion / PC-FX World Updated 2.16.05]

Hi all,

The new PC-FX World site is now open!  Please note a few things before you visit:

pcengine-fx.com/PC-FX/

- 95% of all of the GAME OVERVIEW videos are NOT working due to time...so please don't email me about broken links.

- If you do find a broken link that is NOT a video, image broken or info/spelling needing correction, please let me know.  I know there are still bugs in the site, so if you come across one, please email me.

- Lastly, enjoy the site...I've spent hundreds of hours on it, and I hope it is what you have been waiting for!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Are there any websites with replay videos of PCE games?...]

Hi Dave, glad to see you at the Pcenginefx boards!

Well, you are a little early as pcengine-fx.com *will* have replay videos of PC-FX/PCE/Turbo games, but the PC-FX ones will be first and those won't be online till probably November.  The Turbo section will start development after that and probably won't be out till mid '05. :\

I've not heard of any site that really has much in the way of videos for the Turbo/PCE....but if I find one I will let you know.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Cosmic Fantasy 2 Ranting]

LOL!  Yes, gotta love that strategically placed mist

CF2 was also one of my favorite RPGs when I was young.  I've not played it through again since then, but man, I loved the cut scenes (Babette is still cool!).  

As for leveling up, I did the EXACT same thing....turn on the turbo button and just go through the battles...Tedious yes....just like what I did in Ys I & II (or was it IV?) when you go down to the basement of one villiger's house where he has the hole in the wall with monsters coming out.  Just hold down the spell button and shoot monsters for hours lvl'ing up.

I was so pissed about Laura though (did she die?  Or was she controlled by the bad guy?).  WHAT A JIP!  Van (and I) spent ALL that time just to not get the girl.  Man....I would have gone into depression if I was Van.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Finally Got My PC Engine!]

LOL...no problem jlued686...moved.

[Feedback / Turbo/PC Engine Content]

That site intially looked good until I start clicking the links. That site hasnt been updated in more than a year. GOOD GOD! I thought it was going to be a wealth of resources, but 1/2 the links dont work or they say COMING SOON.

Gotta say! pcengine-fx.com is deffinately the site to go to.

Aaron. Why dont you do what the other sites do and do the Moderator system so that we can maintain and update certain parts of your site so we can take some of the strain off your hands. I know this site is HUGE and its way too much for 1 person to handle efficiently.

Remember the "IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME" theory? Well its built, but "IF YOU UPDATE IT, MORE WILL COME". Let us help you out with this monsterous task of upkeeping the site. What do ya say?

I would very much like to off-load work to other people, however there a many reasons why I don't do this...with one being quality control. I am very much attached to my site(s) and I only trust myself to make sure that layouts, designs, graphics and content are to my standards and to my visitor's standards. Plus it can be a mess to manage content integration since I use a closed-HTML system, which doesn't cater to moderator systems outside of my own development computer.

The Turbo section will be back, and when it does, it will be the largest Turbo resource anywhere...you can quote me on that

[Feedback / Good Idea, Bad Idea: Priceguide]

Cool guys, glad to see this taking off.  Once you get some good content then I can stick it on the main site (in the mean time since the PC-FX World is currently WIP).

[News / pcengine-fx.com Update 8.12.04]

Did something happen to the forums?  I posted a bunch of stuff in the last couple of days and it's all gone now.

Anyway, Episode 4 was great.  Keep 'em coming!

Yah, I we did have a day when the site and boards were offline a day or so ago...they might have been destroyed during that downtime

[News / pcengine-fx.com Update 8.12.04]

Best episode yet... I thought the surprise in the turbo goods section was going to be the LT but that the turbo duo thing was neat... there can't be too many of those around.  Just out of curiosity, how many turbo games do you have?   I know there were like 134 released in the US and I'm sure you have lots of japenese titles as well.  I have like 55 to maybe 60 games last time I counted, but I think you'll shatter my record.  Keep up the good work man

Respect,
Ryan

Glad you liked the episode there Ryan!  Many people think that I have a bucket load of Turbo games, but actually I don't.  I would have a lot more if it wasn't for the PC-FX taking up all my money years ago....a handful of the FX games I have cost me over $200 each (a few over $300).  Now that I'm married, I can't spend nearly as much as I used to on games, but I'm still slowly building up my Turbo collection...I want to at least get all the US titles, which I still need one more SuperCD game (Terraforming) and about 25 more HuCards.

[Media (PCEFX Radio/TV) / PcenginefxTV - Episode 4...now online!]

I'm really glad you liked the episode...I've been getting a lot of positive feedback from it.

I do have a background in video production...mostly VFX work for short films and such, but I can pretty much do anything related to video production....editing, mastering to DVD, DVD authoring, Visual FX, CGi, filming....you name it.

[Media (PCEFX Radio/TV) / PcenginefxTV - Episode 4...now online!]

Work has finished on PcenginefxTV Ep. 4, and is now online for viewing.  I have gone back to the style and format of the first two episodes, but raising the production values a notch  Hope everyone likes the Turbo Goods section!

[News / pcengine-fx.com Update 8.12.04]

pcengine-fx.com has been updated with news, changes, and best of all a brand-new PcenginefxTV episode!.....enjoy!

[Media (PCEFX Radio/TV) / PcenginefxTV Ep. 4 - In production!]

Just to let everyone know, the next episode of PcenginefxTV is well into production, to be released this month ;D

[Feedback / Turbo/PC Engine Content]

Yah, I saw turbografx-16.com last year and I thought I had a competitor for "most comprehensive" TG site...or at least a site that looked professionally done (I liked their design and theme), but yah, they haven't updated or have any of their big sections open.

Just to let you know, I do plan to bring back the TG/PCE section in full force, however don't expect it until next year...I'm focusing all my spare time on the remake of the PC-FX section, which is high priority at the moment with the upcoming emu.

[PC-FX Discussion / Modded PC in a PC-FX shell]

Damn, wish they would have shown the back of that modded FX  Cool find though!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Looking to buy Terraforming SCD (US)]

Funny that I should be using my own board for this

Anyway, I'm looking to buy the Terraforming US SCD....if anyone has a tip to where I could buy this online (retail wise), or if someone has one for sale, I'd be interested.  The only place that had the US version listed was at Telegames UK, and they are out of stock

[Feedback / Welcome back Aaron!]

Thanks for the welcome guys  It's great to be back in the Turbo community again!

m1savage: I've reset your password - I've sent it to the email listed in your Profile.

[Feedback / Good Idea, Bad Idea: Priceguide]

This topic has been brought to my attention many times in the past, and it is a good idea...The reason why I have never really created one is because the prices fluctuate so much; it is first hard to track prices based off of auctions, and really auction pricing isn't an accurate way to price a game...however auctions are the only way for us to really get a picture as to what things are going for so there aren't many other options.

I'd be willing to help out in this regard as well, either by submitting info, or hosting the page on pcengine-fx.com....whatever works...I'll leave it up to you guys since you brought it up.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Meteor Blaster DX (new PCEngine CD Game!) released!]

Moved to the correct forum.

[News / pcengine-fx.com server issues - Please read!]

Hi all...

During the past few days, pcengine-fx.com & AsianGirlRock.com have been having major web host issues and are currently getting fixed.  We are aware of the problem, and are bothing our host about it......sorry about the downtime (again!)

[Feedback / Promoting]

Hi Spamcatch2004,

Thanks for the post and the comments.  I've actually been on the net with pcengine-fx.com since '96, and have already submitted a LONG time ago to every search engine you could think of.  I'd be surprised if a search engine didn't have my site listed by now.

I've also been a part of various online networks over the years, but I'm not really interested to rejoin any of them because that would mean putting up ads on the site and I wouldn't want to re-create my site layout just for that.

By all means, if you can help get the word out that pcengine-fx.com exists that would be great..I still get email from people that have never heard of the site, which is cool since I tend to think everybody who is interested in the content I provide knows the site already.  But ultimately, sites like mine, and every other turbo site out there cater to the retro gaming market, so I doubt that any sort of promotion could bring in a huge number of new people (but I guess it could happen).

[Media (PCEFX Radio/TV) / Pcenginefx Radio: Love it? Hate it? Tell me!]

With the return of pcengine-fx.com, comes the return of Pcenginefx Radio Live...This is a live-shoutcast stream playing a selection of tunes from various SuperCD, CD-ROM2 and HuCard games.

From the people that have been tuning into the stream, do you like the rotation of the music?  Like the selection?  Any music you would like to see included in the rotation?  Please post your comments/suggestions here!

[Media (PCEFX Radio/TV) / PcenginefxTV: What would YOU like to see in the next ep?]

I've been getting a lot of requests for a new episode of PcenginefxTV, so I'd like to ask visitors what you would like to see in the next episode.  Any kind of suggestions/requests are welcome!

[Media (PCEFX Radio/TV) / Welcome to the Pcenginefx Radio/TV forum!]

Feel free to post requests, suggestions, questions and comments about Pcenginefx Radio & PcenginefxTV in this section!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Meteor Blaster:DX]

I just got the final shipping version of Meteor Blaster:DX from MindRec today...did anyone else order the game yet?  If you haven't seen it yet, I have a video, screenshots and an interview with Bt on pcengine-fx.com.  I highly recommend that you purchase the game either from Bt @ Mindrec.com or from TurboZoneDirect (tzd.com) to support the cause!

[News / pcengine-fx.com now open! - 7.29.04]

Congratulations Aaron, the site looks great.  I've been a turbo fan for a long time now and I'm very happy the site is back up, and I hope it continues to stay up for years to come.  Thanks for giving the Turbo Community a great place to visit.

I too love Pcenginefx TV and would love to see another episode!

Respect,
Ryan

Hi Ryan!

Thanks for the comments!  Always glad to hear from a fellow visitor  With all of this interest in Pcenginefx TV, I may have no choice but to make another episode ;)

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Bonk RPG]

Hi jlued686,

Thanks for the question - the Bonk RPG was reported to have been only 20% done before it was scrapped, and thus no playable demos or test versions were made.  For more info, check out this page:

http://joyce.eng.yale.edu/~bt/turbo/unreleased/bonk4/

[News / pcengine-fx.com now open! - 7.29.04]

The site still looks great, and i LOVE the videos for PCENGINEFX TV!!!!!


Thanks for coming back, and keep up the hard, yet rewarding work on your amazing site!

It is SO awesome to have an English PC-FX site!!!

Glad you love PcenginefxTV  I do want to do another one here soon, but really don't know when I will find the time.  I'm currently working on the PC-FX World site and some new features for the upcoming months.  The main priority is the FX site as that will be even more important with the upcoming MagicEngineFX emu.

[News / pcengine-fx.com now open! - 7.29.04]

In your links section, for Darkcityproductions.com, it says that the site is updated regularly, but it really hasn't been updated in a long time, and the message board has been down longer than the last update. I have messaged Darkman, but never got a reply. With his current status in his personal life going on, i am not sure when he will update again.

Still a neat site to goto, and Darkman always has neat things to add to his site to make it more fun.


Just thought i would mention that, and hope that he can get back to his site again.

Yah, Darkman is a personal friend of mine, and in fact we live in the same area.  He is having major computer problems, so don't expect updates anytime soon.  The site was usually updated, so I'm not going to change my link description (not a big deal anyway).

[News / pcengine-fx.com now open! - 7.29.04]

pcengine-fx.com has now been reopened!  I want to thank everyone for their support during this downtime...we are finally back and good to go!  Enjoy!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / New TZD Announcement - 6/14/04]

The TZD "BOGO" special has been extended till Aug. 30th.  Please see original post above for details.

[Feedback / Love the site...]

Hi spamcatch2004,

Look no further - as the site rejoins the land of the living on July 29th

As for the PC-FX picture, it has been replaced by the PC-FX machines in front of Tokyo Tower (at least until the 29th)....I will probably re-post these as people have told me that they really like these photos.

[PC-FX Discussion / MagicEngineFX Release Date]

It has been announced that MagicEngineFX will be released on or around the 19th of November (same time as the new MagicEngine 1.0).  This is very exciting as this has been a long-time coming to the community and will rejuvenate interest into the PC-FX system, as well as allow people who couldn't afford the console to experience it.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Ph33R]

This has nothing to do with the PC-FX...moved to the correct forum.

[News / pcengine-fx.com Re-opening Update!]

Hello all,

Just an update on the status of pcengine-fx.com...it looks like we will (plan) to re-launch the site during the first week of Aug.  We are currently in stand-by mode waiting for Bt @ mindrec.com to release the new Super CD game Meteor Blaster:DX.  As soon as he does, pcengine-fx.com will be back up and kicking

[PC-FX Discussion / What happened to the Turbo List?]

They have been having major web host issues over the past few months (TurboList, MindRec & TZD) but everything should be back to normal now.

[PC-FX Discussion / O_O Take the PC-FX quiz!!!]

Got an 80....guess that was because of the Angelique question (which is still wrong?).  Very cool quiz Scott

[News / eMail down since the 17th]

My pcefx@pcengine-fx.com email account has been down since the morning of the 17th, so if anyone has sent me a message since then. please note that this is the reason.  I have not heard back from my web host, so I'm not sure if the messages since then are recoverable.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / New TZD Announcement - 6/14/04]

From TZD:

Can you believe it was ten years ago that TZD opened their doors for Turbo fans everywhere?

Believe it! It's been ten years since we first started, and to celebrate we're bringing back our most popular sale ever. Yes, BOGO is back! Nothing held back, this is your last chance to save big on new, unopened Turbo inventory.

Buy One Get One is simple. Purchase any item from our price list, receive any second item of equal or lesser value for 50% off. No limits, no product held back.

Here are the details: Sale ends Aug. 30, 2004. You must add 'BOGO' to the comments section of your on-line order. We'll adjust the total. If you place the order on the telephone or in the mail, be sure to say 'BOGO' me to get the discount. Item of equal or lesser value is 50% off. We reserve the right to refuse any order. International customers please email your request, we'll give you a total, as we can no longer accept credit cards outside the U.S. Don't wait, order today, everything is on sale, but there are limits to everything we have.

Please note that the brand new release from Mindrec "Meteor Blaster DX" is included in the sale, but a production delay means we will have to backorder that item, we'll ship them just as soon as they arrive.

And lastly if you haven't already, run, don't walk to your nearest magazine store to pick up the July issue #113 of Tips& Tricks magazine. Joe Santulli's Collector's Closet devotes a full page to our favorite game system, and we're told issue #114 will feature more about rare Turbo games.

Screen shots and ordering information for debit/credit, check or money order purchases are a click away!

[PC-FX Discussion / What?]

Hi darkkenshin99,

Where did you get FXer?  Unless I was taken out of the loop, it is my understanding that FXer does not exist and has been long since dead and buried.

BTW, just to clarify, FXer is not related to the PC-FXGA in any shape, way or form.

[Feedback / Re: Been waiting for a good NEC site...]

During the past few months I've been searching for some good NEC sites.  With the exception of the Turbo List page (which is a bit rough), there are none. . .  at least not in English.  I never saw pcengine-fx.com when it was up, so I can't wait for it to come back so I can check it out!  What's the ETA on the re-start of the site?

-Rob

Hi Katsu,

I thought everyone has been to my site one time or another  Always glad to hear from new visitors though!  Sorry that I can't give you the "full tour" of my old pcengine-fx.com site, but this way you can experience the site better than ever.

ETA for the main site (excluding the PC-FX World site) is within weeks...

[News / pcengine-fx.com downtime-status 5.20.04]

Good to see pcengine-fx.com around again.

I keep hearing about FXer coming back from the ashes. Pretty news! Is the emu available yet somewhere? I can't find any link or any announcement on the forum.

Wow. September 2001. Have I been registered here for that long?

Hi Kaminari,

You keep hearing about FXer?  Where have you heard this?  FXer has been long-since dead, so I have heard nothing about this...

As for the site, it is not back yet - just the new board.  But soon.....

[News / pcengine-fx.com downtime-status 5.20.04]

Hello all,

Just a quick update as to what is going on here at pcengine-fx.com:

 - Currently we are having lots of web server issues.  Our new host had a server meltdown and is still recouping from the crash.

 - If you didn't know by now, the pcengine-fx.com forum has a new address: https://www.pcengine-fx.com/phpBB.  The old board will be retired in late June replaced by the new and improved phpBB one.  If you had a member account with the old board, your username has been migrated to the new board, however you must re-configure your email address and password.  All passwords have been reset to "password" so please login with your username and this temp password and change it in your settings!

 - The main page of pcengine-fx.com has been tweaked for the re-launch of the site and we should be going live by the end of June.  Prepare for expanded/upgraded content and a brand-new game feature!

 - Lastly, work has just begun on the new PC-FX World site.  It is only 1% complete, but boy does it look AMAZING...I'm going to say that it is the most clean, professional layout I have ever done.  I don't want to show it just yet, but expect BIG things from the new PC-FX World site!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: New with pcengine and i have some questions]

>>Is the same an extended pcengine/turbografx system ( cd and the others thing for be duo compatible ) than a turboduo system? ¿What of both are better compatible?

If I understand you right, you are asking if a Turbografx+CD is more/less compatible than the TurboDuo?  If you have the choice between the two, get the TurboDuo.  It will play the most types of Turbo games with less additional items to buy.


>>There are some hard-hacks for these systems? Where i can get it those?

Yes, there are hardware hacks for the system....but they are not all in one place so finding them isn't too easy...but here are a few links:

http://www-personal.umich.edu/~dfw/hackfaq">www-personal.umich.edu/~dfw/hackfaq
(really outdated FAQ...but has some info)

http://joyce.eng.yale.edu/~bt/turbo/turbo.cgi">joyce.eng.yale.edu/~bt/turbo/turbo.cgi
(files on the Turbo Mailing List..they have some hack faqs on there)


>>>What about protection zone of CDROM and cards? How i can use a protected zone card or cdrom on the system?

There is no copy protection on any Turbo/PC Engine game.  You do however need a converter if you want to play Japanese HuCards on a US system (and vice versa.)


>>>Have the CDROM some thing of protection? And the cards? How fix the console for can run at all ?

There is a hardware hack that will allow you to play HuCards from any region (see the hack links above) without a converter.


>>>What about the arcade card? Is valid for arcade CDs?

You just need the Arcade Card in your TurboDuo to play Arcade card CDs (if you have a US TurboDuo, you will need the HuCard converter to use the Arcade Card)


>>>There are backup unit of the cards? are difficult to get? Where get it these cards?

There are backup units for HuCards, but I think only 5 people in the entire world own them (in other words, impossible to get)


>>>What problems could have a Turboduo system (compatibility and others) are fixable these problems? How fix it?

No problems for a TurboDuo...you just need a HuCard converter to play any Japanese HuCard games or system cards and you are good to go.


>>>I can have a RGB output (scart)? is possible? how add it ?

It IS possible to have RGB output, but it is not easy, nor cost effective (not worth the effort or time).  You can find more info here:
http://www.gamesx.com/avpinouts/duoav.htm">www.gamesx.com/avpinouts/duoav.htm

>>>Where i can buy it a  pcengine/turbografx/turboduo system and accesories (including arcade card)? What of these are more cheaper ?

Since I recommend the TurboDuo, you can find those on Ebay and I know some online retailers carry them as well.  Expect to pay at least $200 for a TurboDuo.  Arcade Cards are around $50 or so....look around...I'm sure you will find a place to purchase them from.

>>>What level of compatibility have supergfx with the other systems ?

The SuperGrafx can play any SuperGrafx game, plus any PC Engine HuCard game.  It does have a CD attachment, but I'm not sure if it will play CD-ROM2/Super CDs correctly...

>>Is true that is possible use modified nes roms onto pcengine/turbogfx/turboduo systems?

If you are asking if you can play NES roms on your TurboDuo, I don't believe you can...I've not seen any NES emu for the TurboDuo.


>>>Is possible use the roms on a cdrom and be runned on cdrom system/turboduo?

There is a way to play ROMS off of a CD in a TurboDuo, but it is pretty complex.  Look up more info at:

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Is it true that there are only 1500 PCE ang TG-16 ROMS?]

More than likely, that is the correct number (or in the general area), however adding the CD based games will easily bring that number to over 2,000 (don't remember how many CD games were released off-hand)
