@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...

Hi guys,
Wanted to introduce myself.

I'm Arn and I'm a turboholic. Just introduced my 10 year old son to the turbo and he's hooked.
I'm a retro gamer and a pinhead. I have a pc engine duo-r that has been modded for American turbo chips with a switch. We've been playing bomberman and bonk and he's been watch Spida1a's Turbo Views over and over. We ordered his first DVD set and can't wait to watch.

So he wants some games for Xmas...

I got him
Cadash --- loose chip
Bloody Wolf --- in cd case with manual

He still wants
Order of the Griffin
Splatterhouse
Splash Lake
Parasol Stars
Lord of Thunder
Ninja Spirit

If anyone has a lead on these if you could let me know I'd appreciate it.
I'm a regular eBay buyer and have lots of purchases through Neo Geo.com (not recently though) and am on pinside as a regular as well.

Games don't need to be CIB
Even loose chips would be cool, although I'd prefer cases with instructions.

Let me know
Thanks!

My son and I had that discussion and he wants the original games. I guess I spoiled him with our Neo Geo AES.

I appreciate the info and will consider getting it for myself, but in the interim we are still looking for those Chips/CD's

Thanks!

Welcome, comrade.

Cadash and Bloody Wolf are great. He will enjoy both.

Cadash is fun 2-player co-op (you have to be a bit patient and it's smoother when one person already knows what to do).

It sounds like money is no object for your household, so you should have no problem "collecting" the desired games.

I have been collecting for a few now. I currently have Gorgar, Cleopatra (SS), Tales From the Crypt, Startship Troopers, Lord of the Rings, Creature From the Black Lagoon, Ripley's Believe it or Not and Black Knight. I have my friends High Speed over that I am working on but I'm all out of room. Interested in the Walking Dead pin that Stern announced.

Money unfortunately doesn't grow on trees. I just got the bad luck of having pretty expensive taste when it comes to retro gaming. Thanks everyone for helping out. My son is going to have a very nice X-mas with your guys help.

Still looking for...

Splash Lake
Parasol Stars
Lord of Thunder (can be Jap or Eng)

Haven't played BK2000 but Creech is really fun, especially for casual play as the rule set has a lot to do but is very easy to understand.

Still looking for Parasol Stars, Splash Lake and Lord/Wind of Thunder!

Thanks all.

Go with the ice splatter house.  Or get the last gen splatter house as it has the first three splatter house games as unlocks after you beat the main game. Plus it is the arcade port of the first game. The last ten game can be found for like $6

I been hoping to win that Walking Dead pin from the contest every week now!  One more shot, here's hoping.  BK2K is also one of my favorites but I haven't had the money or room to buy it yet (don't ask me what I'll do with TWD if I win it, but I'd figure something out).  Did you get Alien and Devil's Crush yet?  And Time Cruise?  Alien Crush was one of my first and favorite TG-16 games.
