[brettlee]

Finaaaally... I'm able to shoot some pics of the LT. Amateur shot so please bare with me She's a pleasure to spend time with. Her screen is too beautiful, it has to be seen in real life. She was originally dirty and I had to clean her up quite abit, but I didn't mind that of course :p




SO ever loving the PC engine...

[Ceti Alpha]

Very nice!! 

[Tatsujin]

Has anyone tried the TV on the PC Engine LT or Turbo Express since the signals went digital?

They haven't all gone digital yet, but what would be the point?  No signal equals lots o' snow.

Yeah, and if I wanted to look at snow I could just look out the window.

they're still broadcasting analog up in Canada, right?

after we go all digital, you might be able to score a tuner cheap!

Oh yeah, you can still get a few channels in analogue yet. Days are getting numbered though.

Just want to add that if you have a Yahoo account with japanese bank account affixed and you speak Japanese enough to basically pretend to be japanese a good 30% of sellers will ship to you.

I have an LT. I bought it back when portable technology was not good enough to completely trounce its LCD screen. I'll probably sell it because the PSP with emulator really defeats my need for it. The only thing stopping me from selling it is mine is in pretty bad condition. As is always the way, as a trader and modder I would pull parts off it to make systems I wanted to sell look better and more valuable. Because mine was always just for gaming with. I'm not a huge collector because seeing 1000x the games you have in your collection come into and out of your house as you trade in them pretty much kills that. I always end up with the dregs as a result of wanting to make what I sell worth more. I would rather mod systems, make them look perfect and sell them on. And yeah I am the sort of person who loves portable gaming but stays in their house with it mostly, I like to take it from room to room and lie on my side and tip it sideways. Bought LT for that reason, don't need it now. Hell I bought a portable screen for my gamecube for the same reason (did not tip GC on side, but would tip screen on side.)

there maybe already lies the main problem of about 99.2% of the users in here then they still have others to overcome.

I have an account. It takes living in Japan for longer than 3 months, enough to qualify for a gaijin registration card. Then you use that to get an online account at ebank.co.jp. If you leave Japan they allegedly shut your account down, but as long as you keep using it to pay people and send money into (I have it affixed to my Japanese Paypal account) I doubt they'd bother. I have mine (and am actively using it) 7 months after leaving Japan. Naturally I never told them I left Japan and am breaking their TOS but who gives a damn.

You can allegedly use Yahoo payments service with a foreign credit card but I've tried every single damn credit card I own (UK) plus every single credit card owned by my fiance (USA) and they basically reject everything. It used to be the case that most any card would work, but they changed that. They let you sign onto the site from oversea and they say they will accept foreign cards with some exceptions but the exceptions seem to be "all of them," including the card I sucessfully set up an account with 6 years ago which I am still using and THEY TAKE PAYMENTS OFF THAT CARD MONTHLY yet refuse it for new accounts. I wanted multiple accounts too for shipping to different countries but this limits me seriously. So I have to request "will you ship to the US" and "will you ship to the UK" on different items. My guise that I present to sellers of being a Japanese citizen "studying abroad" then looks shaky. Oh well. Hopefully most of them dont click on other things I've bought and view my questions to seller.

The other new rule Yahoo set up is if you don't reg your CC (which they never accept) or a JP bank account then they won;t let you bid on anything over 3000 yen. So you're screwed for bidding on most things anyway.

If anyone wants help sourcing items to be sent abroad I can help out for an obvious fee. I'd have your item sent straight to you from the seller, as opposed to using one of those insanely expensive holding services that bid for you by proxy. And like I say you have a 30% chance of the seller saying yes.

NICE!!!!!!! I've just picked up an LT mint condition, box is a bit tattered but the unit is brand new. the previous owner never used it by the looks of it. cost me an arm and a leg though. £650.00 around $800.00 I think. (scratches head).

well worth it though, I mean if you want to buy one of these of someone you have got to through some serious money at them. This guy wasnt letting it go for nothing.

More like $950.  Ouch, but congrats on the purchase anyway and have fun with da sexiness.

Congratz are definitely in order on your new LT!!    It's pricey, but you've got yourself a dream machine.

Hi Wilson W111 nice LT, I have just bought one as well, 2nd hand but in mint condition, my box is in ok condition taking into account the age but your box looks better, there is not a mark on the unit though, and the screen is perfect. Quick question for you though, do you find that the lid is ever so slightly loose? does it have a bit of a wobble? mine does. It works fine and im sure its just made that way but i'm a perfectionist and I have waited for one of these for 20 yesrs plus too! its my baby and I love it. I tried to dismantle it to tighten it up but I bottled in and quickly put the screws back in LOL...
