[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: looking for prototypes (will pay well)]

Ok then. Well I'll try not to be picky, and I'll be happy to talk about anything that anyone wants to bring to the table. But really, originally I was just referring to games that were in development.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: prototypes]

Does anyone else think it would be really interesting to see what SF2 would have looked like during development?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: If you can have 1 non-English release on the TG (in English), what would it be?]

Emerald Dragon, Gulliver Boy, or FEOE2.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / simple 80s games]

Sometimes I get in the mood to play older "atari era" type stuff. I'm talking about those 80s arcade games that were less complex but addictive to play. Where the goal was usually to score the highest.

So, which of these were brought to the turbo? I can think of the following right off the top of my head:

Space Invaders
Galaga
Umm what else?

+ all the stuff Arkhan is doing.

I almost forgot about Davis Cup Tennis. Great game, and yes the samples were a very nice touch.

On that note, I remember a boxing game (Champions Forever?) with some nice sampled music. Too bad more hucards didn't explore this playback technology. I'll bet some nice things could have been done with simple loops.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Best sports games]

Glad we could bring that into the light for you.
If there are any other sports RPGs please let us know. I'd love to play one.

Slightly off topic, does anyone know of any for other game systems?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: special effects]

Just thought of another. New adventure Island had nice transition effects that I haven't seen elsewhere. Not to mention that game is just oh so great!

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: special effects]

Great list!

Art Of Fighting is such a great port. Don't ya think?
The huvideo stuff is really nice as well. Ever wonder what would have happened if it were used in Sherlock or ICFTD.
Metamor Jupiter is really impressive too. I wasn't expecting it when I first saw it.

I'm assuming you put Darkwing duck on the list because of the magnifying glass effect which was done pretty well, I think.

Sapphire is of course a great example. Superb animations!

I also thought the 3D wireframes in SI were done well. I wonder if they used it in any of their other stuff.

I totally forgot about gunboat and falcon. I really wanted to enjoy gunboat but haven't been able to so far. There was a time I used to love Falcon though. Speaking of which, has anyone ever played it in multiplayer networked mode?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: looking for prototypes (will pay well)]

I was originally talking about games. Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the differences between the types you mentioned. Maybe you can break it down for me a bit.

Thanks for the info.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Best sports games]

I need to try that cheat code out.

The tennis RPG mode was really cool too. It's much like final lap twin's which I really enjoyed. Too bad they didn't make more like these. I found them to be really unique and original.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: special effects]

Either is good really.
I wonder if in any cases, the effects were changed between US and JPN versions of the same game.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: prototypes]

Thanks vestcunt, I appreciate that. It was big of you to say so. No hard feelings.

I guess I was mostly curious about what types of unconventional items were still out there. I figured a great place like this, full of fans, would turn up something interesting and worthy of discussion.

As far as the system itself goes, I've been a big fan for years. I find there to be so many great games, and probably many I've yet to fully discover. Either way, I'm sure this is the right place.   

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / special effects]

I was wondering which US games had special effects that were otherwise uncommon to see on the system. Maybe we can get a list going. I'll get it started:

The titlescreen of bomberman had a cool vertical stretch type effect on the title.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: prototypes]

I'd also like to add that I'm liking the forum, since I'm a fan of the games and systems, like you all are. So if anyone has any real constructive criticism, or advise about something I'm doing wrong, I will pay close attention. I'm here to enjoy the discussions, and have only sincere intentions. Thanks go out to the large majority of you, who have been friendly to a new member like myself.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: prototypes]

I was reading some old posts, which I thought was encouraged. Something you specifically mentioned in one of them was why I asked you. It wasn't done at random, and it was a sincere question. I asked only a few people actually, and I was never rude about it either.

I still don't see how any of this is untypical use of the forum. Since when is it a scheme to offer money to purchase something? Is there a rule somewhere that says I need to have been here for x amount of time before I can post such things? I don't get it.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: prototypes]

Usually quotes are used to repeat someone's words. Not to put words in their mouth. But, which part of any of my posts is inappropriate for this forum exactly, and how is your rude response at all appropriate?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / looking for prototypes (will pay well)]

I figured I'd offer to buy some, in the hopes a would be seller is willing to dig these out of their closets, for the right offer.
So if you think you have any, PM me and I'll make you an offer.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Anyone around who was at NEC, TTI, or any of the 3rd parties?]

How can I get in touch with turbogirl today? Does anyone have her contact info?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Anyone around who was at NEC, TTI, or any of the 3rd parties?]

It must have been great fun to be able to play all the games first.
I wonder where they are now, and if they're still playing these games. 

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Best sports games]

I was thinking about this the other day. What are some of the better sports titles out there?
Madden was pretty good compared to other versions, I think. Which others?

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: prototypes]

So nobody here owns one? How can that be? PM me if you have anything.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / prototypes]

Has anyone seen any for the turbografx. Does anyone here have any?

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

Has anyone spotted any rare turbografx items for auction lately? I'm talking about stuff that doesn't show up often (or ever).
