[General Gaming / Re: RetroBlox : Another new Play-Everything "Retro" Console]

Admittedly, I hadn't thought about that... If this device is going to play ISOs as well that's all fine and dandy, but well, I don't know about you, but I already play both PCE CD ISOs and Sega CD ISOs on my Wii ;3

Also wii is only upscaling to 480p, this thing hopefully will upscale nicely to whatever tv you're using.

I do want to try to mod my wii, I recently got a broken one that was just dirty or something works fine for me, so I kinda want to try to mod it. Can you pm me links on how is the best way so I don't have to trudge through the shady corners of the world wide webs?

You need the Wii's MAC address and an SD card, that website does all the bundling and downloading work for you.  After that you plug the SD card with the files on it into your Wii, open the 'letterbomb' in your messages, and follow the steps on screen.  Once that's good grab all the emulators you want from wiibrew and you're good to go!  A $4 Wii2HDMI adapter from AliExpress is a personal recommendation of mine if you're running on an HDTV and not a CRT though, cleaner 480p image than component in my experience.

Been spending a lot of time with the Turbo ED the past few days.  I've never played >95% of these games.  It's been great discovering them.

I'm in the same boat, I got a TED recently and whenever I sit down and play it's a whole library of games I'm totally unfamiliar with.  It's an amazing system and an exciting feeling.

[Localizations, Games, Apps, Docs / Re: Snatcher English translation?]

One of the main differences in Snatcher is some of the music, the PSG stuff.

Take this for example. The PCE version is definitive to the Sega CD here though I can't say for other tracks

Wow, I've only played the SEGA CD version of Snatcher, and thoroughly enjoyed it, but the PCE version sounds leagues better.  I guess I didn't even realize there was a PCE version of Snatcher.  Between that and Shin Megami Tensei, I really need to pick up a CD-ROM unit (and learn Japanese...)

Greetings!  I always meant to put in some time at Famicom world, especially since I've been on a Game Boy binge lately.  So many forums/games/systems, so little time.  Welcome aboard!

Thanks!  I highly recommend Famicom World, it's a community much like this one.  I've been a member there since 2006 (which is hard to believe).  But there really are too many great games and too many great communities, hardly any time to actually play the games!  Learning about them is almost as fun though.

[NEC Console Resource / Re: Proper Introduction]

Hello everyone, I just wanted to properly introduce myself.

I've had a real itch to play and learn about PC Engine hardware and software lately, and my searching led me straight here.  I had a friend in high school who's dad would let us play his TG16, I was pretty enthralled with it and have had little opportunity to play a real unit since.  I have been collecting for Famicom for well over a decade and am a very long-time member of Famicom World, I think I recognized a few members over here.  Anyway, I didn't want to seem like a leech or come off as rude while in my hardware hunt, I respect your community and the enormous wealth of knowledge you all posses and I'm glad to be here.

Thanks!

Welcome, comrade

I love NES/Famicom. Such a rich library of games.

Also, PCE RULES ALL.

Fin.

Thanks for the warm welcome!  I'm currently waiting for a Famicom EverDrive in the mail, pretty excited to play some translated dungeon-crawlers.  I'm real intrigued by the PCE, particularly the sound hardware, it's SO RAD.

[NEC Console Resource / Re: Ahoy!]

Double Dungeons is one of my favorites as well.  There's something about 1st person dungeon crawlers...

[General Gaming / Re: So I got me a generic FEKA ED, what to play?]

Those EDs should work for 32X and Master System games as well, if there's any of those you've been itching to play.  I've been planning to pick one up for that reason.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: PCE Software Bible updates]

The site looks amazing, it's easily the best PCE resource I've found online.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: WTB: PC Engine Console]

Happy to be here, and I appreciate the advice!  I'm definitely willing to consider a CoreGrafx, I originally mentioned it in my post but edited it out for simplicity.

Hello, I'm obviously new here, and I want to thank you all for letting me join your community!

GOT ONE!
