2/13/2025: Localization News - Cosmic Fantasy 3-4!

Rather earth-shattering news in the PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16 community: Cosmic Fantasy 3 & 4 has been officially localized to English by Edia 30 years later for the Switch! Hard to believe! I know their script quality is poor given the 1&2 port but still good to see.

Hey all!  In the spirit of generosity that's plagued the forums recently I figured I'd take a crack at it as well.

Up for raffle is one complete box of Nintendo GamePacks!
(It's not Turbo-related, I know, but it's the best I could come up with on short notice...)

IMG

The box contains 48 unopened packs of cards.  Each pack contains 3 scratch-off cards and 2 stickers.  

Here's a sample of what some of the stickers look like:

Truth Time:  They don't really stick very well these days.  I gave my 3 yr old a pack from another box earlier this week and they didn't stick very well.  But after being hit with a glue stick they were good as new. :) I took a complete collection of stickers and taped them together to form a poster and have it hanging in my office.

Here's a sample of the front of the scratch-off cards:

IMG

Truth Time: They don't  scratch off very well.  We tried to "play" the games that my son opened earlier this week and the coin I used ended up rubbing off both the silver and whatever it's supposed to cover.  These things were made 22 years ago...

Here's the back of the scratch-off cards.  They include very useful tips  :roll::

Anyway, that's it.  I'll pull a name out of a hat sometime next week (I'm thinking Monday).  I'll make the drawing tonight, Tuesday, 9/20/2011.

Enjoy!

Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion/blackmail!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

Not joining in, but this is one awesome raffle here!!  Talk about retro goodies!!!  Best of luck to all of you.

roflmao

Excellent!  I'm glad to see such a good turnout.  I've updated the OP with the names of each of the people who have signed up so far.  Please let me know if I missed anyone!  (I'm trying to get over a cold right now so am not running at 100%)  I'll keep it open at least until Monday evening, though I might make the drawing on Tuesday so folks that don't stop by over the weekend have a chance to join in.

Depending on how I'm feeling (if this cold has gone away) I may even post a little video of the drawing on YT, just so you know it's legit. :)  But the jury's still out on that.
