Ello from Wales, UK

Should introduce myself I guess!

Used to have a PC Engine with the CD interface many years ago, in some strange twist of a trade (got my hands on it by swapping a game gear and a Tamiya R/C car) i'm guessing it was back around '94, maybe a little earlier.

I've not really thought about my past consoles until I recently bought a house, and now that i'm settled I can start collecting up my childhood memories...in console format.

I've swept through a few over the past year, Neo Geo AES, Mega CD, SNES etc and then about 2 months back I remembered my time with the PC Engine. There was a cracking deal on eBay a few weeks back, a small 6 hour window where there was 20% off everything and I remembered a Turbo Duo I had seen with the RGB mod and re-cap, suffice to say it took me a whole 5 mins to make the decision to buy it!

Aaaand that's about it, I've bought about 15 games for it so far. Nothing spectacular, just the games I loved when I was growing up and a few I missed out on!

Hah yeap, I can't imagine there being many PCE fans down my way.

I mostly know Wales from the Chronicles of Prydain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chronicles_of_Prydain

Which is based on the Mabinogion.

Many of my video game characters have been named Taran and Eilonwy.

Welcome to the site!

Welcome, comrade.

Sadly, most of my knowledge about Wales is indirect via silly pop culture (The Alarm).

My apologies.

I recognize my limitations.

At least I know how to find Wales on a map.

And I think vowels are overrated, too.

Welcome to the show.

I do not know any Welsh jokes

, so I will have to ask some Scottish friends for a few and get back with you.

Best place for it, IMHO ... badaboom!

Welcome from an ex-pat Bristol lad.

Wales is a beautiful country.

I'm of the age to still be pissed-off by the Thatcher "Reaganomics" era destruction of so many Welsh towns.

But enough of that B.S. ... I just hope that you enjoy it here.
