Hey guys,

I don't post here a lot (I'm more of a lurker  8)), but I recently started a retro gaming blog, and I kicked it off with a review of the PC-Engine Duo RX, which I figured a lot of you would enjoy...

Here you go:

Nice article. However, the beer reference at the intro sounds awfully lot like advertising with an eliticist touch of glossy magazines handed out on airplane flights. Thus, it feels pretty misplaced in a gaming blog.

Can you "pair" drinks with video games?  Also, the name brings Snesdrunk to mind.  Or Gintendo.

Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! 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!

Nice lil review.  I like how you label the short controller cords and necessary tap as minor annoyances rather than the oft heard "omg-this-is-why-it-failed!" hysteria.

One note: first you say the PCE's library is 650 strong and later that it's 850.  The latter is closest to the truth, but it's a hard number to nail down, depending on if you include LA games, homebrew, Games Express titles, etc.
