10/31/2023: Localization News - Dead of the Brain 1!

No, NOT a trick, a Halloween treat! Presenting the Dead of the Brain 1 English patch by David Shadoff for the DEAD last official PC Engine CD game published by NEC before exiting the console biz in 1999! I helped edit/betatest and it's also a game I actually finished in 2023, yaaay! Shubibiman also did a French localization. github.com/dshadoff/DeadoftheBrain

I'm assuming that one game is Gate of Thunder? My advice is to get more games :) .

Keep it if your into shooters and action platformers.

Still if your looking for games on it... try ebay or the sell threads here.

I do suggest picking up the Ys and Valis series for the Turbo Duo as they're really really good games!

You may also want to try out Sapphire and Cotton! :wink:

If you're new to the Turbo Duo, try Valis III before the rest of the games. Although there a lot of us who love the series, the games aren't without their faults and aren't universally appealing.

You can't play Sapphire unless you either drop $75 - $150 on a converter or $150 on a PC Engine Duo system + $20 - $30 on an Arcade Card Duo + $200 - $400 on the game itself. So even if you just download and burn Sapphire or buy one of the bootlegs for $60, you'll still have to spend a bunch of money before you can play it.

You should try the arcade version of Cotton on Mame before buying the Turbo or PCE versions. Its another game that some people love, but isn't so hot gameplay or graphics wise by Turbo standards.

Here are some good cheap games to look into first, all of which will work on your system as-is-


CD:

Lords Of Thunder
Monster Lair
Forgotten Worlds
Dragon Slayer
Exile
Dungeon Explorer II PCE*
Kaze No Densetsu/Legend Of Xanadu II PCE*
Dynastic Hero PCE*
Neo Nectaris***
Vasteel***
Side Arms Special

HuCard:

Aeroblasters
Ninja Spirit
Bloody Wolf
Dungeon Explorer
Dragon's Curse
Blazing Lazers
Dead Moon
Legendary Axe**
Alien Crush
Cadash
Bomberman '93
Neutopia
Military Madness***
Samurai Ghost
Side Arms

Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him 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, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

Yea Vasteel is pretty badass. I like either the US or japanese release,I can play both just fine. All those titles Black Tiger listed are great starters for serious fun.

Dark Fact

Didn't the U.S. version of Vasteel have really really bad voice acting? :-k

Maybe that's another reason to try out the game. :wink:

It looked like the original acting wouldn't have been much better. I don't know why they even bothered tacking on such boring recycled cinemas in the first place. I sat through them the first time, but just skipped them after that and I don't think it ever affected the gameplay.
