Well a am interested to see if there is any welsh pc engine owners out as over the years I have only ever known of 4 people that have owned a pc engine and over the years they have become a dying breed, I think I have become a ethnic minority where pc engine is concerned.

So if there is any of you out there let us know I am just outside of Cardiff in Caerphilly be cool if there is anyone else in the area.
I always wanted a thing called tuna sashemie

Out of interest were there many "grey import" video game shops in Wales in the late eighties/early nineties?

I'm not from Wales, I'm in England, but just on the opposite side of the Bristol Channel.  :D
