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.

I laughed at the first game used to show off this accomplishment.

There's now controversy over the theft of source code for the emulators used in the Retron 5.

Thought about getting one before all the things happen, but don't know how I feel about owning a hunk of shit, I mean, I already have an N64 (possible j/k) wouldn't wanna add to it.

I saw on Facebook today that they are now raising the MSRP to $159, even after all this. I like the idea of an emulator box with controller ports but this one is not for me.

Raising the price!? I figured they would lower the price to liquidate the current inventory to raise revenue to pay for their lawsuit before they are ordered to stop selling them. Lol

i'm honestly just curious how i would go about loading this up :)

but also, why does the genesis emulation seem so shitty?

Yeah, it seems like all the games look brown.

that is weird I had not noticed.

But then again I do not own this system, and have only seen reviews of it on line......and even then they like to mostly focus on NES, SNES, and the game boy funcitons....Genesis and SM get little to no screen time.

I just picked one up the other day.  Have not had a chance to play it yet.

Retron 5 running Ys for PCE. I hope that there is a hack released soon.

It is one of those things where I want to pick one up for the convince

But then I think. Wait. I could knock out another two $100 level games off my expensive list.


Then don't

I guess if I were to stumble on one for less then $100 I would get one.


But as it stands I can already play all these games minus import Genesis games.



And even then I haven't looked into moving a Genesis to play import games truthfully

This is very interesting. I've had one since day one and had no idea it was able to do all these other things. I like the Retron5, it's very convenient for all my 16-bit cart gaming needs as well as teh famicoons.
