on the site, is there any consistent and simple way to understand which regions each of the games were released in?

i can't seem to find any logic that illustrates the point.

(of course, it's obvious when a game is released in japan as most of the screenshots show title screens with kanji - but it doesn't say if there was also a u.s. and/or pal release of the same game)

I'm pretty sure Sunteam is always looking for ways to improve his site.  your dilemma could be one of them

The site is in the process of getting a complete overhaul. It's a long process but stay tuned. You probably won't see any updates to the site as it is now until the revamped site is ready.

Well, it is the PC Engine Software Bible.  Doesn't that mean that everything on there is from the Japanese release?  :lol:  (just yankin' your chain)

Hopefully, Paul will add some more content for the US exclusive releases.  Only Darkwing Duck, Falcon, Loom, and Order of the Griffon are on there now (I think).

I recently sent Sunteam a PM letting him use my YouTube PC Engine videos for his site.

It's a good site; but (as always) I don't agree with all of the "reviews". It's an excellent resource though and hope the revamp makes it even better.

An opinion is what it is. :)

But I think one of the ideas behind the revamp is going to be to provide a wider range of opinions on the games.

I'm going to be doing a lot of reviews for the new site in hopes of giving an "alternate perspective" on some titles.

Been a bit busy so I only just noticed this thread.

Yup, more US only games are going to be added, yup the focus is on the Japanese releases, yup, the reviews are being split a bit more into overview and comment, erm maybe I'll put a list in for US releases although don't expect them to feature prominently as a) I don't live in America b) This means I've not had exposure to the US games much c) I don't really give a hoot about them although d) they should be in there for completeness, nevertheless I want to avoid e) putting huge flags on the lists and f) having separate reviews for different country releases so things like JJ & Jeff will be either g) be mentioned in passing in the Kato & Ken review possibly, or at worst h) just have the title at the top of the page.

I hope that's clear.  :-"

Please feel free to send me any opinions of your own to add to the site to paul [at] pcengine.co.uk

It may be a (very) long time before the update is done but I'll store it all for use. Many of my reviews are going to be rewritten now, so my own opinions may change.
