New to the forum, not new to the PC Engine

gradius · 02/08/2013, 11:03 AM

Hello from Birmingham, England

Been a lurker for a while but never posted.

I have owned a PC Engine or 10 since about 1990 and I currently have a Duo, white with briefcase, core I and Super Grafx. I have about 150 games and i'm more of a collector than a player these days.

Arcade games are my main vice. I have 3 Japanese candy cabs and about 25 pcb's. It can be a pretty expensive hobby and things can go expensively wrong more often than I'd like.

I'm a bit low on funds currently but I will be on the lookout for more games soon.

Aero City has a real deal stool!

I'll keep the cab talk to a min since this is a PCE/Turbo forum.

Only got 1 game centre stool, 2 more would be nice.

Back on topic.

I've been playing bikkuriman world today, one of my favourites.

Welcome to the forum!

Jump right in and rate some TG-16 games (if you can).

Carparama · 02/15/2013, 03:16 PM

I've been periodically visiting this site, but it's been six years since I posted. Yikes.

My dad always played his TG16 (as mine was lost in a move) and I was always afraid to ask to have it. Alas, he doesn't play it anymore and wants me to have it. I'm hoping my games aren't lost, but I'm willing to get the good ones back. Bonk's Adventure, Bonk's Revenge, World Class Baseball, Cyber Core, Tale Spin and Yo'Bro to name a few. (Yeah, I actually like the latter two.)

A belated "Welcome" to Comrade Gradius and "Welcome Back" to Comrade Carparama.
