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 was digging through a spindle of really old PC CDs and stumbled across one a friend made me back in the early 00s.  It's mostly made up of game demos from that time, but one thing of note is a copy of Ys! It looks like it was the version that was released for DOS back in 1989.

I made a quick little gameplay video (<2 min.) using my cellphone just to show it off.
I put it in my Dropbox, so if anyone is interested in checking it out, shoot me a PM (it's only about 300k zipped!). If I'm not allowed to share it, let me know and I'll edit my post.

Oh yeah forgot about this version. :) I think it qualifies as abandonware but it might fall under the no links for rom thing.

I have a complete copy. The manual was pretty cool from what I remember. Some of the name changes are entertaining, like Dark Fact being named Malficus (or something).

If you have Ys Eternal and likely the Complete version for PC, it has an early version (PC-88?) that you can play right off of the disc.
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!
