Ordered!

Thank you Paul for all your hard work on these amazing projects!  :)
Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion/blackmail!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

_Paul

I hope people like it, I really want to do a volume 2 with JP PCE games.

imparanoic

will you do the japanese variant pc engine as oppose to tg16?

Elder

I just sent an email with the info you requested.  Can't wait to secure my copy :D  Your previous book is incredible, and I can't wait to get my hands on this one.

I already like it, and I don't even have my copy yet!  Please, do as many of these as you can.

Are you still doing the other book as well?  If I was interested in both is it possible to order both at once?

Not at the moment. 'Gamer' is currently not available. Maybe sometime in the future if I do a vol.2 I might see if I can offer a bundle but no promises.

Ah that would be cool as I didn't get around to getting the first volume. I'd definitely buy both volumes!

A nice package has arrived in todays post.  The question now is: Do I give it to my dear mother, as she has asked me to pick something up as a Christmas present from her or do I act like a five year old and demand it now ;-)

OK I am going to be good and pass it onto Santa, however I did take a little sneaky peek and the book looks great.

31 Days and counting LOL

Who gives something to a family member to give back to them as a Christmas present?  What's the point of that?

Why?

So you don't end up with (another) hand-knit sweater you hate :)

CGQuarterly

So does she pay you for the book?  What happens when you open it?  Do you pretend that it's a surprise?

I'm not criticizing, I'm just trying to understand how this works.

kiketonto

I email paul for payment !
I hope to get the book! It's look so nice!

I buy stuff for myself and save it for Christmas. I guess that's sort of similar so I can understand it.

I snagged a certain book for myself for x-mas, and I'm dumb enough that I'll probably forget and it'll be a surprise when it comes in the mail.

I like it when that happens. Especially something I preordered 6 months ago.

Prepping for book 2 has begun (making a big list of JP Hus and working out what to include).

Same here, but, since it's Jp games, will it be written in moon runes? :)  Seriously though, looking forward to it!

Well, that & Niko Niko Pun!  Actually, Niko Niko Pun isn't that bad a looking game, it's just boring.

Aoi Blink would seem like a great contender.  Bomberman 94, Dragon Egg, Download, Dragon Saber, Liquid Kids, Parodius, Photograph Boy, Street Fighter II, Legend of Valkyrie.

Actually, change my vote to "all of them".  Two or three volumes (or however many it takes) over time would be fine by me.  :mrgreen:

WARNING!

Orders for the first book will cease at the end of January. The FINAL batch will be sent out (hopefully) mid-February.

If you're too late, you're too late. Non-payment in time will count as a missed order.

roflmao

So after January these will no longer be available?  Gah!

Uguuu, time to scrape up some funds for this bad boy.  I would regret missing out on it later.

Got the book a few days ago, and it's awesome. My only advice would be to package it better, maybe with some cardboard in the envelope, or at least write "please do not bend" on the outside; USPS often crams stuff into mailboxes, and the book would have suffered -- I got lucky the day I received it.

Thanks again for the great book. Do you expect the next Pixellence to be released this year?

_Paul

Volume 2 will be hopefully this year. Q3-4 most likely.
