      Johnny Millenium dropping in on my favourite UK gaming channel. Well that certainly calls for (yet) another beer to be opened, he said as he took out another ice cold one. Cheers!

    Fun fact, both PC Engine CD Puyo Puyo games have a very special exclusive voice actress for the main character Arle. Kitono Mitsuishi voiced her, you might know her as the voice actress for Sailor Moon in Japan.

    Nice collection. I’ve been building my PCE/TG16 for awhile now, and I really do agree that it’s very overlooked and under-appreciated.

    I’ve actually really enjoyed every game I played for the system. However, it is one of the only consoles I never really collected anything for. Nice video!

      It is such a fun system and great to collect for as well! There’s still quite a lot of the PC Engine games that are fairly cheap!

    Thanks for the video with all the information on the system. I bought a base system back in the 90’s and a few games. Later in the 90’s when the company went out of business a local game store was selling base turbo graft systems for $5 and games for $1. I bought 4 used base systems and a lot of the games. NEC Technologies was 20 minutes from where I lived and I used to go there and play games before they were released in return for filling out a survey giving an opinion about the game I played. . One time they even gave me my favorite game for the system, Neutopia II. I still have the game factory sealed in the box. They also gave me some promotional material which consisted of 5 by 7 inch cards which had the artwork of the box of the game and a written description of the game. I still have these cards too. It is interesting to find out now that some of the games are worth over $100 now because I remember seeing those turbo graft game cards for $1 in used game bins at small game stores in the 90’s. Back then you could also buy a converter that attached to the Turbo Grafx that played PC Engine games. I bought a lot of those too for $1 back in the late 90’s at small game stores with used games...

    Great collection. That Devil crush looking game is called Necromancer. I highly suggest investing in a label maker so that you can add English titles on the label end of the Cd boxes. I do this with all my Asian games across all systems.

      @@RetroBreak I have ordered Operation Wolf loose HuCard, and will pickup Street Fighter Championship (I already have the Avenue Pad 6, 6 button control pad). I have also ordered a Turbo Everdrive from Stone Age Gamer but I still intend to collect my favourite games on original.
      I have always been curious about the PC Engine, since seeing it in C&VG magazine back in the day. Like many people, I had a Master System, Megadrive, SNES etc but always wanted to play the PC Engine but never knew anyone who owned one. Finally, after all of these years I will have one...I can't wait :)
      Do you collect for Neo Geo at all? That's another system that I wanted to own back in the day, but all I could do was dream. I managed to buy an AES around 15 years ago, and have 15 or so games but that system is now no longer affordable to collect for. Around a year ago, I picked up a Neo Geo MVS 4 slot arcade cab. I have around 60 games for that, which is much more affordable and I absolutely love it.

    I get really tired of having to correct people about the turbo. It is not only an eight bit system. I had a dual 16 bit graphic chips. Though the CPU is a bit it was twice as fast is the super Nintendo CPU. But I had a 21 bit address bus where is the super Nintendo and the Genesis only had a 16 bit one. It also came out three years before the Genesis in the super Nintendo. That combined with at superior color palette made it on par with those two systems. When all the specifications are taken into account all three systems are about equal in power. Was rarely push to its limit. Games like Air zonk and Street fighter two champion edition sure what the Hugh card format could do. Don't even get me started that it was the first system with a CD drive! Stop saying it was only a bit. It was every bit as powerful as the other two

    • @RetroBreak
      @RetroBreak  6 років тому

      Thank you for clarifying. I never really looked into the specs too much just know it was a mix of 8 and 16 bit and presumed it was generally less powerful than the SNES / Megadrive
