[spawnshop]

Ready to go just after Christmas

Wow, these look quality!  Great work!

man, not again! this is getting ridiculous!!!!!

[GoldenWheels]

Jeez! What did those PCE Works discs sell for in the first place?

[toaks]

I would be interested if there are any left, or if there are any future releases. Just got a Pc Engine Duo and would like to start building a collection.

[in99flames]

I actually went to the site to check. If im not mistaken i think it was like...127 for those three. It was in Euros or GBP(cant remember)...regardless its still a for a huge profit.....*sigh*

"Collectors Edition" bootlegs.

Same guy flipping two different pceworks sets for no less than double their recent "retail" prices. What a real collector/game fan. :/

[o.pwuaioc]

So what's the best way to get rid of one of Bernie's discs? I assume a raffle would need to exclude certain folks?

Just set a reasonable post count limitation and raffle it.

[ObeyMyEgo]

I'm a bit new to TurboGrafx/PC engine stuff.

so the eBay links posted are basically how quality bootlegs? I thought eBay didn't allow counterfiet or copies of copyrighted material?

[MasonSushi]

i messaged twice and never got a response. I guess they are out. I wanted wave 2 minus castlevania. 

[Warbucks]

I sent Bernie a message also, he might just be busy and hasn't gotten around to checking the PMs.

They do unless enough people report it.

Please stop.



And my stance on selling or raffling these off.  I dont care.  I really dont.  They are yours to do with what you like.  Just use common sense.  Raffle em here if you like, or if you wanna sell them on eBay, start em as an auction.

[IvanBeavkov]

Due to popular demand (T2KFreeker) here are my custom instruction pamphlets for The Dynastic Hero and Might and Magic 3.

If anyone has better scans of the covers for these games I would appreciate it. The ones I got are OK but a little fuzzy. I would like to update them if anyone has better ones.

High quality versions can be found here:

The M&M3 print thingy could benefit of one internal page being dedicated exclusively for taking notes, lots of passwords and quests that won't appear in your "quest" menu or anywhere else for that matter, besides the NPC/object that will give you the info.

[Scillianaire]

This thread being inactive for a whole month makes me sooo sad.

[tbone3969]

I'm praying for round 3...

How can we "as a community" help?

Whose gears can we lube?

[780racer]

I'm praying for round 3...

How can we "as a community" help?

Air zonk
syd meads
Ys 4 translated
 and maybe camp california?

All great choices except for maybe Camp California.  Is that game any good?  I don't know anything about it really.

[cr8zykuban0]

Air zonk and terraforming would be awesome!

[Bernie]

One thing we may not have been clear on, is future titles.  Tobias is totally in charge of what games go to press, not us.  Now, I have sent him info on titles lots of folks have asked about, and I am sure he takes that into consideration.  However, in the end, Turbob Xpress has no final say in which games come our way.  I hope that clears that up a little. 

[o.pwuaioc]

Air zonk and terraforming would be awesome!

How about some games I don't already have!

Translations would be highest up on my list.

Kaze Kiri?

[jlued686]

I'll add my vote for Super Air Zonk. But after that, translations would also be high on my list.

[tbone3969]

A pressed version of the Mega Man released for the PC Engine CD would be awesome IMHO

[780racer]

Well, any word if more are in the works Bernie?

[Sadler]

Soooo... I mean, I think what Blue and company have done for PCEFX is great. But some of you guys are asking for things that creators have pretty explicitly said that don't want to have made. Did I miss something? Do we just not care about that anymore now that the cat is out of the bag?

I hear you.  I think we are more just dreaming of titles we want.  Anything else that is released at this point is really just icing on the cake after the awesome first 2 releases.

^ This.

If it does not happen, I don't see anyone complaining, but pipe dreams are cool. Esp. for the super expensive games or translated games.

[HailingTheThings]

I think its fun. Kinda awkward. Decent soundtrack, some tracks are downright wow-status. Also, there be leather gimps if you look closely. <3

[ginoscope]

Don't get me wrong I appreciate what Bernie and Co. did with the first two rounds.

Does everyone really have issues reading CD-Rs?  I had issues on my PC Engine DUO and TG16 cd and after changing both lasers they read everything perfectly.  Not trying to be an ass just wondering.

[Bernie]

We have had a couple devs say they were not against having Tobias press their stuff, but I will let them speak here if they want.  Those projects are not anything ready right now anyway. 

But yeah, I feel shying away from fan translations would be the best bet, UNLESS said translator has said they gives no shits.  I am fine with getting the more expensive releases, and anything else is just a surprise. 

On another note....we do have some inside info on getting fan made projects pressed here in NA.  I won't say too much about it at this moment, but the idea has taken form.  Do not expect anything soon, as everything related to that is still ways off.  Thee guys making games, and converting from NES to PCE, they have lives, and this is a time consuming hobby.  But, yes...there are a couple things on the back burner right now.  I will let them chime in if they so choose.

Yep, my Duo can't read CD-Rs. I don't really want to bother with changing the laser, and besides, Bernie's prices are essentially covering costs, there's no point in doing so. Having almost original art on the CD is an added bonus—who doesn't like admiring all parts of a game, gameplay + media + manual + artwork?

I believe his comment was geared more towards fan translated games.

[EmperorIng]

I have a stack of CD-rs that I really need to put to good use so I can finally enjoy NightWolve & co.'s work on Ys IV and Xak III. A doujindance-modded system shouldn't have problems with CD-rs, right?

I would imagine that if potential titles come from Tobias' stock, then Sylphia, Fausette Amour, and Kaze Kiri would be somewhat logical picks if you wanted to avoid fan-translations. I'd definitely love to see the first two, but I'm willing to offer congratulations on what was already printed.

[geise]

Did he already do Renny Blaster?  Surprised he didn't do     
Bazaru De Gozaru No Game Degozaru or the TV Show yet, but quite a few don't even really know about those games unless they are heavy into the pc-engine.

[EmperorIng]

Probably just as well he skipped The TV Show; he printed enough meh games as-is. =)

[geise]

Heh, I like The TV Show.

[Gentlegamer]

Bernie banned himself?

[synbiosfan]

That's what it looks like.

Helpful guy, long before this thread came about.

[MNKyDeth]

I appreciate all he did for the forum here. The pressed discs and making xmas super great this past year.

Is it just temporary?

[wildfruit]

Bernie is gone?
Gee I missed a lot on hiatus.
Shame, I was going to hit up a DE2 and DracX

[tbone3969]

"Feel the Bern"

Truly one of the best out there.

He will be missed.

[cdpog]

It seems Im a bit late to this party. If Bernie is out, then who can we contact about the discs that are still available? Is it all over? wont someone think of the children?
