@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Quote from: guest on 06/22/2015, 07:41 PMI already have 7 or 8 different flyers, so chances are I already have 'em. BUUTTT, if I don't.... I may just enter. :D  Guess I'll wait for pics.

wait... they weren't printed on one of your dot matrix printers, were they? (;  (couldn't resist)
No, but according to my father they are circa 1994-1999. Pretty tip top shape I might add.

No thanks.  I know I have the booklet one, and I'm reasonably certain I have two flyers as well.

Very nice! I still have mine. Hopefully they'll go to a good home!

I want these to go to whomever will make high res scans of these for historical documentation.

When I win the flyer, I will promptly scan it.

Or, I will convince the winner to scan it for me and Nulltard.

I would like to join the raffle, I promise not to scan it or share. It will sit in my drawer for the foreseeable future until someone unearths it from my game room in 2085

Thanks!

if i win I'd only want the one flyer I don't have. I'd either kick bigus some change to ship the other stuff to #2 or re-raffle or something.

No promises on how quickly I'd get it scanned... I have quite a backlog of stuff...
That sounds like a good plan to me. I don't have a real good scanner at home otherwise I would have scanned them myself. So I hope whoever wins these has a awesome scanner!

Groover

Count me in. Those are great. I remember pouring through those at my friends house. He had the turbo growing up.

This was one of the more exciting things for me in the last two weeks. It was fun. Maybe my name will come up one day. Grats Professor. I'm so glad that someone that  also really cares about this stuff will get it.  Thanks OP for the raffle. This was fun.

These things came from a time when TZD was honest and true. I am glad to have them and to have a small piece of something left from when TZD really meant something, before the Red Frog sellout. They really kept the light on for Turbo fans during the mid and late 90's. Sucks they went out the way they did, but thats life.

Indeed, did you get those today Professor? I'm amazed that the mice didn't get to them at my dad's house, unfortunately the turbo stick boxes weren't spared. :( Those looked literally like swiss cheese and definitely not raffle worthy.

PCEngineHell

Yeah they arrived safe and sound. :) They are up on my shelf now safe and sound with my Turbo and PCE stuff.

Awesome, glad to hear it. If I come across anymore Turbo/PCE extras at my dad's house (non molested by mice) I'll be sure to post another raffle for them.
