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.

Well I joined the site last year and didn't get the memo that you're kinda supposed to introduce yourself until a few months later. At that point it felt kinda awkward to introduce myself. I guess I'm bored enough this evening that it doesn't feel awkward now. So anyways.

Been gaming since the Atari 2600. Nintendo fan 4 life. Alllllllmost got a TG16/CD back in the day as a co-Christmas gift between my brother and I. We decided to get multiple SNES games that year instead of blowing our whole load on a new system and whatever was packed in. Ys Book I&II almost made us take the leap though.

So I bought a TG16 a few years back at a local store. After a few years I had amassed a whopping 8 or 10 games. Guess I don't need to tell you guys how hard it is to find Turbo games in the wild. So with some help here I have finally been able to dig into the Turbo library that vexed me for 20+ years. Special thanks to Madboom specifically for hooking it up.

Even though you might not guess it from this longwinded post, I'm not one to just post and jump into a topic will nilly. A lot of that has to do with the fact that I'm far from a Turbo expert. There is a lot of Turbo knowledge floating around here that is starting to seep in with me. Big thanks to all who have contributed to that.

Anyways, I've enjoyed my time so far and have thankfully managed to avoid any landmines(it does get REAL up in here sometimes). Alright, guess that does it!

Welcome, comrade! :)

A heartfelt intro, and I have never found Turbo in the wild (even in mid- late-90's) so you did better than I did.  :)

Doin' fantabulous! Thinking about Turbo'ing it up if I get the time tonight actually. How you doin'?

And is there an option to get alerts if someone responds to a thread you created? The only reason I checked here was to see who actually responded and saw a new post. Of course I guess I could dig into the settings myself...

I think there is an email notification system.

I use tapatalk on my phone and it makes life a lot easier (for me, anyway).

Also,

WELCOME BACK!

A belated welcome to Pcenginefx to you!

captain_n77

Thanks for the new welcomes!

I tried downloading the tapatalk app, but didn't stick with it. 99% of the time I come here is on my laptop anyways. I'll try to look into the options and see what's up.  :-k

There's a notify button at the top and bottom of each thread, and there's a couple options in your profile for how notifications work.
