Maybe I'm crazy, but just looking at those battery cases kiiiinda makes me wish I had a white plastic Turbo Express....

Maybe if they where beige that would be crazy.

Congrats to the winner and to his good friend with the heater skills.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Keith Courage Waiting List]

I'm sure one day you will find Keith Courage in a video games stores. I know all you find if any TG16 games is Magical Chase but someday a copy of Keith Courage will be yours.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Convinced a friend to get into Turbo]

Want to play CD games get a Duo-R want just Hu Card games get a PC Engine core.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What PC-Engine Stuff did you get today?]

I got my discs from Bernie and co. I can't wait to dig into Dynastic Hero.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbob Xpress: Bringing affordable "gamer's" games to the community! Round 2 Go!]

Thanks Bernie and crew. I just received them and I can't wait to play them tonight.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: WTB: PCE controller]

I highly recommend getting a standard PC-Engine controller. It is good to have one. I feel like my thumb is swimming on the RX controller.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: WTB arcade duo]

Sapphire that would be fun to play.

Also thanks for the alternative places to shop online.

Edit: ok I have to pump the brakes a little bit. I have bookmarked those sites for later.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What Turbo game are you currently playing?]

I'm trying to figure where the last 4% in Dracula is left. I have been 96% for a while. Nearly played through all again but I love playing the game.
Also I have been playing with Beyond Shadowgate. Thanks Bernie.

Still banging away at Gate of Thunder but I'm not good at it. I think I might have a better chance if I had a friend over passing it back and fourth.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbo Everdrive 2 as a Super System Card]

I was reading on krikzz message board and they where saying not to load up the OG System Card 3.0. They recommended to use a patched System Card 3 file. I didn't look at the dates perhaps it was an older conversation that has been outdated. Good to know it is an option if/when I get a SuperGrafx and CD-ROM2 addon with RGB. Someday maybe next year.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: TZD - Hucard cases being sold]

Couldn't you just go here https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=18661.0 and put in an order?

[General Gaming / Re: 16 bit cityscapes]

Those are some nice cityscapes. Very Cool. I just poured through all the pages. Also saved a few images.

[General Gaming / Re: Sega CD model 1 repair]

I also have issues with my launch Sega CD Model 1. My issue is different. The disc just doesn't read. I think xcrement5x is on the money it sounds like the belt or gear.

PM sent for batch #2

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Raffle: 1 set of Turbob Repro discs]

PM sent Thanks again Bernie great idea.

Edit: Donation sent. Count me in for 10 entries.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Raffle: 2 Japanse Hu cards (complete, fair condition)]

I'm thankful for my friends that invited me over to share thanksgiving when I was home alone this year. It was nice.

[General Gaming / Re: Everdive Sale]

I couldn't sleep last night and stumbled upon this sale and pulled the trigger on SD2SNES. I have been wanting this and here is the only sale on this I have seen. I had no issue ordering krikzz's shop.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: RetroFreak: New competition for Retron 5 with PCE/TG16 support]

I'm not a fan of these. They are just emulators wrapped around useing an orignal cart and controllers. I'm sure this works for others. I would just use an emulator and a controller.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu ?]

it is not bad. I like Vigilante more. I think it has to do with skinheads kidnapping Madonna though. That and I like the game.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: WTB: Turbo Duo (US console) with recaps, laser repair and Scart]

I can understand the want of the all black US TurboDuo. I love mine and I wanted it for years before I got mine. I did a couple years later grab a Duo-R. I love it. it does also have a region mod and RGB. RGB being the big reason I wanted it. Also because I think it is also very good looking as well. I have an all US  console collection but I'm also having a Japan console thing going on. For some it is introducing something new to something old and familiar but still being new to me. You can get a US TurboDuo just expect to pay more. You might want that money to buy the games. That is where the real money is spent.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Recommendations for PC Engine games CD/hu card]

Rondo

Gate of Thunder

Those are good. Also others have a pretty good list for sure.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Subbed PCE Commercials]

These where fun to watch today. Thanks for sharing. I do enjoy these old commercials.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Classic Turbo Grafx/Duo PC Engine Collection]

Let me know if you do decide to break it up there are a few there I'm interested in.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: 720p output]

So in the short hand is this an addon to the back of the PC-Engine and Cores that like other video adaptors that let you output RGB or Component. this also upscales 4x to HDMI?

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Re: WTB Turbo Express LCD]

Are you talking bigger or just better screens? I also heard newer screens are taking less power. I'm not sure if true but it would be nice if so. Someday I will have an Express. a new screen and battery mod are somethings I would want with it.

Also I didn't know it could also play PC-FX games.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: lMbUbSbCbLbEl * lEeMePeHeAeSeIeSl % bTkAkBkLkEkTkSb]

Either I'm having a stroke reading this thread and making some sense of it or we are losing it and I'm not alone.

Grats to the winner!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: For sale: Air Zonk. Loose game.]

How Much do you want for Air Zonk? Listening for price.

[General Gaming / Re: Fallout 4]

I haven't been playing it but I know many that are and I can't hang out with them because of it. This game just hadn't pulled me in like others. I'm also afraid if it did.

[General Gaming / Re: Snes cd add on]

I think the Wondermega is pretty sexy but I prefer the duo. I saw this SNES prototype pics and the update of them turning it on and playing games one it.

This is the thing that started it all with the PlayStation. Nintendo really mis-handled that breakup.

I would like to get an SD2SNES to play Road Avenger and Zelda with cut screens and cd soundtrack. Also BS Zelda. It seems funny that the SNES is the only Nintendo console generation not to have a disk system.
Even the Famicom has a Disk System and the N64 got in on it. Perhaps it was the Famicom Disk System that made them unsure about CDs. I think they spent too long working it out that the generation ended and Sega didn't run away with it.

[General Gaming / Re: Never Played NES]

These videos are nice. Interesting choices so far. How are you playing these and capturing the video? Emulator or real hardware. If real hardware whats the setup?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Yahoo auction]

I have wanted to buy from the Yahoo Auction from the states. I just haven't figure out the additional costs.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbob Xpress: Bringing affordable "gamer's" games to the community!]

The next batch preview looks great just waiting for ok to send PM. This is really great for you all offering this at all. Also agree Sapphire would be cool later. if possible.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Any games that can use Power Glove?]

Yeah the Power Glove I saw for $150. That is crazy. I hadn't heard anything about the Power glove modded to work on the Turbo Grafx 16. My friend had one back in the day and is just plain sucked at playing any game on. I picked one up years ago for dirt.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Controllers, Favorites?]

Does a TG16 controller exist that has the sturdy feel of an NES pad? I hate how the turbob controller feels like an empty hollow shell. I like how the nes pad feels heavier and sturdier.

I don't know I enjoy the feel of the turbo controller. To me it is like a premium NES controller. I like the sides being curved and not rigid. Also the D pad and button action is good. the cable is coming out the center and not the side or off set on the top. I do think that there is a bit of muscle memory for me. I have used this controller first when I was very young as a kid. So holding one now I have a memory of it.

I want to get a 3 button controller. I think that might be a nice option. Of the 6 button controllers I am not a fan of the Duo RX controller. My thumb is swimming in the d-pad on that one.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbob Xpress: Bringing affordable "gamer's" games to the community!]

Thank You Bernie and Team. I just got them. This weekend is looking good. I'm excited as well for the next batch.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: how to store loose hu cards]

The baseball card sheets are a really good idea. I currently don't have any loose cards so far. I also don't have many games. I have been targeting the games with cases so far. I think if I only had a few loose games I would look into getting cases.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Introducing myself and Turbo Views......]

Thanks for watching and commenting guys.   

It is great to see you back here. Another great video. Man it has to be a challenge to review that golf simulation.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbob Xpress: Bringing affordable "gamer's" games to the community!]

Yes.  We should have the following titles in hand by next week sometime.

Dungeon Explorer II
Bonk III
Godzilla
Dynastic Hero
Dracula X Japanese

That is exciting news. Thanks again.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: For sale, Air Zonk, Splatterhouse and Neutopia 2. Loose games.]

What do you mean on hold? Did you sell it then just update the OP. Also just ask for what you want here. Also remember they are loose games and this is not ebay.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Your 5 favorite PC Engine games?]

Dracula X Rondo of Blood
Air Zonk
Gate of thunder
Ninja Spirit
Bonk's Revenge


It was hard only naming 5.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Who was lucky enough to have TG16 rentals in your area?]

I didn't have TG16 rentals but I had my best friend that had one. Also he kind of was spoiled for a time and had tons of toys and video games. I remember going to his house all the time and watching Police Academy videos pausing to play TG16 games and playing Thundercats.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: RAFFLE: Lords of Thunder US Version]

Congrats Chop! great game Nice raffle OP

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Full PC-FX Set of Software For Sale]

Wow, This would have been the only console complete collection I have. Although I never go for such a silly completionist collection. Someday I might pick up a PC-FX. I sadly don't speak or read Japanese. it is still cool.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Trading: Camp California, Vasteel, Lords of Thunder: Price Suggestions Please]

I'm the guy that paid $300 for Lords of Thunder, but I feel I got ripped off.  It looks to be in good shape (no scratches) but it must be defective, as it won't even boot in my PC-FX.  So sad.

Yeah, I know pretty bummed that you paid $300 and you can't even play it on your PC-FX.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: SD-card or HDD replacement for CD drive?]

I know of the 3DO USB mod and a Dreamcast and Saturn. I would love a PC Engine CD Modded for USB. Someday maybe we will find that yellow sliver. The closest tech I could achieve is installing the mod.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: When did dracula x become a $200+ game?]

I am so glad I bought mine in January. I only wish I could buy more and did earlier.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Poll- Are you a new or old PC Engine/TurboGrafx gamer?]

I played it all the time at my best friends house. So much fun. I finally got a duo a few years ago.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbob Xpress: Bringing affordable "gamer's" games to the community!]

Bernie thank you for doing this.
