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 know the American version of Bonk 3 costs that much but I know the Japanese versions cost way less than that. Leave it to American sellers to rip people off when it comes to anything related to NEC systems.   :x

Are you serious? PC Genjin 3 is worth twice that ! :roll:

Should email the guy and tell him that you would've paid that, except you see he's placed it on his kitchen floor, and there's no way you'll touch it now.

Maybe he's trying to start a trend. I wasn't looking when Bonk 3 US hit $250+, but whatever the hell idiocy caused that to happen can surely spread over into the JP-side, can't it? I mean, its not like $300 for Bonk 3 US isn't a huge screw-job also. Its just that people have conned themselves into believing that a average quality HuCard from 15 years ago that only cost $50 new is somehow worth six times that. If they try hard enough, they can con themselves into believing the same is true of the JP version.

Yeah, it looks like the slipcase is the more abrasive style that came with the later games, not the silky smooth slipcases that came with most of the earlier games.  I hope he gets AIDS or something else just as funny.

Hell these sellers are funny! They're going to lose more money with insert than what they would hope to get if they sold those games at the right price. THEY're going to get screwed (well, I hope so...)

I think that we all hate gamesquad. When I first saw his pc genjin 3 for sale for that price I just laughed and thought; what an idiot, haha.

I like the slipcases that are like that.  I kind of like the feel of those.


More on topic....

I just posted mt TG US Hucards needed list in the other forum.  I think I will mark off the Bonk 3 for sure if the PC Engine is only $20 or so.  That's amazing!  Pretty much the same game... can't beat that.
