12/23/2024: Localization News - Team Innocent

PC-FX Localization for Team Innocent is released, a pre-Christmas gift!! In a twist, it feels like the NEC PC-FX got more attention in 2024 than any other time I can remember! Caveat: The localizers consider the "v0.9" patch a BETA as it still faces technical hurdles to eventually subtitle the FMV scenes, but they consider it very much playable.

Hey everyone,

Well, Faceball 2000 for Virtual Boy is coming out in Febraury, but I would like to know more about the game.

I've never played any other version, so tell me about the SNES, GB, GG and PCE versions, and what you like. Thanks. :)

uhm.. I have the Gameboy version.  I don't like it that much.  It's more impressive for what it acheived technically than that it was actually fun.
Also, the GB version had 16 player linkup, but not (I assume) without custom hardware.

PCE Faceball is the only one that matters to me, so my comments may or may not apply to all versions: up to four players in a couple different modes ("kill 'em all" and "motteke tamago"), it's kinda slow, the tunes are catchy, and the graphics are very basic (but it's real 3D!).

PCE Faceball is just a demo, right? There's barely any info on the game online.

And more!!

Technically the gameboy one is VERY impressive with the sheer amount of people you can get playing in the same Maze!  I've had a TON of fun playing this game on any platform really.

Of the two big console versions (SNES vs. PCE) I actually prefer the Turbob version with its killer soundtrack and the 4 players simultaneous mode!!  It was like Goldeneye before Goldeneye.  :P  The SNES version is no slouch by any means, but the PCE version allows for more players and has equally impressive grafx.  It's kind of like comparing Buster Bros (Turbo) to Super Buster Bros. (SNES)  More players... more fun!
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!

Yes and no.  There's the quite common complete retail game, but there's also a relatively rare 'sample disc' version (click here for Tokei's video description).

I just played the GB and SNES versions briefly online. The SNES one is the better version, but has worse music. I like Faceball. Not great, but very solid. I guess I'll get the PCE and Virtual Boy versions. :)
