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!

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!

God fucking dammit I really love the look of that Pal system box. I used to like the North American system box well enough, but the NA TG16 box sucks so much ass compared to that one. The only thing I don't like about the Pal/UK box is the "16" missing from the logo.

Tatsujin

and that it is in fact 50Hz PAL :lol:

I think if they had dropped the "16" from the US release, it would have sold better. :D  Turbografx just rolls off the tongue and sounds so badass.  Turbografx-16 is long and awkward (and a little misleading).  I love my TG16 more than just almost anything, but it is a silly name. ;)

its a shame the picture is the same front and back, and there is a spelling mistake on it too!

Quote from: guest on 06/29/2013, 05:39 PMMight want to pick up a Turbo Everdrive so you can try before you buy.  I personally play games on the Everdrive even though I own the HuCard.  So nice to have every game ready to play on real hardware.
i tried to a couple of days ago there was one on ebay bundled with a pc engine duo, wentt way over my budget

Quite possibly the cheapest imaginable game Keith Courage would be well worth picking up.

If they would have taken the need for grinding out of the game, Keith Courage would have been one of the better early games on the system.  You can probably find someone on the forum willing to part with a copy for cheap.

EDIT: this particular member has an extra loose copy with a loose manual you can have for the shipping cost.  (should be about $3-5 usd slow mail to the UK I think)
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)
BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere. You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

I think I'm up to about 10 copies of the game thanks to buying in bundles.
I'm busy playing pinball, but I still drop by to visit.

wildfruit

no its not modded at all. most games run slow but a couple seem to run normal speed.

Tatsujin

Oh houly cowcrap, I see. Get that thing modded ASAP, or even better buy a region modded DUO(-R), preferred with S-Vid or better output, and put that thing onto a shelf for the sake of its good looking only :)

No wonder you still love your MD over the PCE/TG, if you had to live with such a "quality" :lol:

I don't like that it's too small to hold everything.

i like the greyness of it and the red and blue colour scheme on the stickers, and it still has that new console smell

Bardoly

Nice start for Turbo!  Bomberman '94 and Blazing Lazers are great!
