Yeah that's what I bought I just called it a turbo game since I'm using it on my duo.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Sidearms has been around longer than I realized.]

Funny I just bought sidearms special for cheap. Which is weird getting use to the controls.

Hah!

THERES 4 YOU DUMBASS

Shhhhh just turn off your brain for a second and don't turn back.

[General Gaming / Re: SNK to announce new hardware ?]

I'm amazed they went Bar top instead of the AES because it be cheaper instead of the built in screen.

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

Can any one recommend them a thesaurus or give them one for this whole thing ?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: PCE Dynastic Hero for Sale]

Thanks for the greats purchase

[General Gaming / Re: Anybody have any experience with DS bootlegs? + nurse drawing]

Well I've seen a bunch you usually at gamestop and most of them have the wrong code on the cart and the color of the plastic can be wrong or the sticker could be wrong in many quantities or they could misspell words.

If you really want to sell off your device you'll need to make the screen 4:3, have a video output, keep a way to have a cd drive function and, make it cheaper than a usual turbo express and pc engine gt

RetroPi outputs proper aspect ratio, have video output (HDMI and Composite), handle CD games fine (everything up through PS1). The most expensive Pi costs $35, but all the 8-16 bit stuff runs fine on the Pi Zero which is like $10.

If you've got a 3d printer, you can print your own case, or get one here for about $25.

A busted Gameboy might be cheaper?

This kit has everything else you need.

I've been wanting to build one of these for ages.

Oh i wasnt talking about the retro pi i was taking about that video on the top the portable console
Sorry for the confusion.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What is a good pc engine controller?]

Hey does anyone know how the ps2 to pce converter work I always see them around compared to other controller types ?
Are they any good or just pieces of crap?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: RGB external booster case?]

Make a cardboard case it shouldn't cost much

[General Gaming / Re: SNK to announce new hardware ?]

Neo Geo: The Board Game

To have that retro feel you'll pay as much as you did with an actual neo geo and pay 200 for each piece.

[General Gaming / Re: SNK to announce new hardware ?]

Who else thinks this is going to be a neo geo classic?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: PCE Dynastic Hero for Sale]

Hey is dynastic hero still available ?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What is a good pc engine controller?]

Damn dude nice. Good to see more Gen Z people play the Turbo.

I joined PCEFX when I was 13. Have grown quite a lot since then. Used to have a Duo-R but now I just have a Coregrafx 2, mostly emulate as well.

What are your favorite games? Maybe we got some in common.

Most of my personal favorites are
Zelda link to the past
Metroid zero mission
Castlvania 3
Alien crush
Legendary axe

If you haven't already, you should try Dragon's Curse.

Hey is dragons curse and dynastic hero text heavy I'm looking into the pc engine version

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: ISO: Turbo Booster, maybe CD unit:]

Have you looked into the db booster that provides AV/S-Video/RGB

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Flash Hiders TGXCD1039 and Variable Geo TGXCD1049]

I doubt they put any of the arcade card info because of how horrendous the turbo did in america and saw no reason to put money in already big failure but you should still have acess in the source code of the game for the arcade card.

Well I haven't gotten to far in turbo but I recently just got a pc engine duo from keith Courage so that list will change. Since I'm able to purchase pc engine games instead of turbografx 16 games which are insane now to buy.

Not a bad list of games, though we got some differences. I like all the 16-bit Castlevanias more than the Castlevania 3 ;) (except Dracula X snes, ew).

Here's my top 10, no order

Mario 64
Portal
Bloodborne
Garou Mark of the Wolves
Majora's Mask
Wario Land 4
Bonk's Revenge
Sonic CD
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3
Postal 2

You planning on buying games? Rondo of Blood is $200 at this point. Hope ya got some good cash, but it helps to save up for college. You'll need it for gas money/uber rides, food, hygeine stuff, maybe even alcohol if you chip in with someone.

Ha I'll probably have to get Rondo as a repro or get lucky and find a deal but I doubt that will happen.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What is a good pc engine controller?]

One thing is for sure, you neither waste question marks nor other punctuations, do you?

Yeah i kinda do most of this stuff at school.

How old are you dude? I'm 19, sophomore in college. I post on my phone occasionally

Still in highschool but got into many things from doing emulation then into getting the hardware.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What is a good pc engine controller?]

So was there any wireless controllers that used radio frequencies or is it all mainly IR I know the official NEC one is IR.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What is a good pc engine controller?]

Ive updated the topic for the discussion about pc engine / turbografx 16 controllers or converters.

[General Gaming / Re: SUPER BOMBERMAN R opening cinematic (Nintendo Switch)]

I'm not surprised it's not happening, but it's too bad Vita isn't getting a port too.  I'd be all over it.

I know I be more happier for a vita version than any other version of this game. Hopefully Japan would a port but that  Probably won't happen.

[General Gaming / Re: SUPER BOMBERMAN R opening cinematic (Nintendo Switch)]

It feels weird to have bomberman speak or boss others around. Though the plot kinda seemed simple.

It's kinda great to see konami try working on video games though. Hopefully it isn't pay to win.

Switch version was not pay to win.  Even the special characters were fairly easily obtainable in game.  As long as there are no changes, I'd recommend picking this up on other systems.

Switch online was laggy shit too, the PS4 and XB1 should improve on that.

The only part I didn't like was the view of the field I wish it was top down instead of the corner view. But it be great to see better competition and not to much lag.

Im just finding out about this whole thing. So my question is if it is a hucard or cd game.

Thanks. There's also the EDIT button if you wish to avoid accidental double posts. Disabling the Tapatalk generated signature in your tapatalk settings and sometimes writing more than just one short sentence per post is also appreciated.

These unwritten rules are not gamebreaking, but if you wish to show you're caring for forum discussion culture, following them will gain you appreciation by other members and sweet, sweet (imaginary) bonus points.

Thank you I have been trying to figure all of this out since ive joined this fourm. Since it works well off and on so its a pain.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbo Gouging on Ebay ( r.i.p. - gouging much )]

I'm not saying that isn't ridiculous, but looking on ebay $90 is the lowest price.  When did That happen?

I guess all the bad publicity made it too popular ?

[General Gaming / Re: I think I may have just ruined my authentic turbografx experience.]

Well the wii doesnt have all the games unless you hack it

lol wut?

The first thing Keith mentioned was using an emulator on the Wii. Hacking, at least homebrew, is implied.

Yeah i kinda realized that after i fully read it

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Turbo Gouging on Ebay ( r.i.p. - gouging much )]

Has anyone see the the darkwing duck for tg16 on amazon for 99.99 for just the card i was laughing so hard when i saw it

Nope, just a mode a/b button to switch between 2 and 6 button modes.

Thats kind of a waste isnt it

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Cool garage sale find today]

Dude thats some pure luck

Hmm i dont know what to say about this image you have provided me

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What is a good pc engine controller?]

What parts did you use for those arcade sticks

The one with PC-Engine in red text on it was made by the forum member here named bartre, he'll have to respond for what he put in it. He gifted it to me, excessively generously.

The grey Hori Fighting Stick PC in the bottom picture only has the stick replaced and I used a Seimitsu LS-32-01 Joystick. https://www.focusattack.com/new-seimitsu-ls-32-01-joystick-2017-model/ But not the 2017 version I did that mod late 2015 early 2016.

On this stick I also used a Seimitsu LS-32-01 Joystick and Sanwa OBSF 30mm buttons (https://www.focusattack.com/sanwa-obsf-30mm-pushbuttons-light-blue/)



This is the same shell that bartre used to make the PC-Engine stick, which was the PS3 Madcatz Fight Stick which they released a few times under different branding:
Street Fighter IV version:


WWE Version (I got 2 of these for 70$ shipped at one point, and used one to make the above gradius stick)


They also released a Wii variation for Tatsunoko VS Capcom


I think Madcatz sold the shell molds to a company called mayflash? I plan on getting one of these and swapping the PCB with genesis controller so I have a niceish microswitch stick on FEKA. Their sticks look almost identical to the Madcatz fightstick shell:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0015PHMFU/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I169NSDUDN564A&colid=1R29VAFM828WT&psc=0


and I just recently got this wireless bluetooth rechargable li-battery powered stick for the Switch (works also with my android phone & tablets, laptop, and SNES Classic, and was on sale for under 50$), Love this thing so far but eventually want to add seimitsu stick and sanwa buttons:

Thanks for the info ive been looking into arcade sticks

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Super SD System 3]

It plays CD games, plays HuCard games, emulates System cards, and has RGB out.

Thanks i was wondering what this did

It also allows unlimited copies of games saves as either traditional save banks or per game.

So do still use a system card for it

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: The Official Pioneer LaserActive Player thread-]

So can the pioneer laser active tg16 add on play supercd or do you need a system card still.

I believe you still need the System Cards to supply the Bios. Don't quote me though.

Hmm i know it plays normal cd but i dont know about super cd
