I was just lookin' at this myself. Sure is neat-lookin'. Reminds me of the Sega computer that had a Genesis built-in (can't remember the name).

Here's some old discussion:

Weird... I haven't noticed it until this morning. Ya know, a few years back I would've went crazy for something like this. Nowadays, I'm lucky if I have room for new games, let alone more consoles. I'm happy to just admire the photos now and move on!
But it is cool. Too bad the too aren't actually integrated. Kinda like gluing a potato peeler to the side of a waffle iron.

HOT DOG!
I need to get on the hotline to Aaron ASAP, surely we need a separate subforum for discussion of this Hu-capable device as well!

EDIT: Sorry, I sure I just overreacted to what was simply a quick joke.
This is insulting.
I made a reasonable argument for why the PC Engine LD games and accompanying hardware merit special attention, as did a number of other members: http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=9942.msg180801#msg180801
Initially, you didn't even take the time to correct your misconceptions and understand what we were talking about before dismissing us out of hand (and this was on the Suggestion board which you don't moderate, FYI).
So yes, I suggested that you at least ask Aaron before making snap judgments - I glad you found that so funny.
I know I’m taking this personally, but we didn't get a subforum or even a goddamn sticky and now I have to listen to a moderator joking about an "Aaron hotline" and using a faulty comparison to equate my argument with absurdity.
The X1 Twin is nothing like the PCE library of Laserdisc games. If you honestly think twelve of the most esoteric PCE games on the most obscure format don’t deserve a home at the “NEC Console Resource”, fine, but by comparing apples to oranges it seems you’re either making fun of members’ suggestions or you still don’t understand the hardware/software in question.

Yes, you overreacted, but I think he really was either being a dick or he still doesn't actually understand the technical uniqueness of the LDROM library, which would be rather incredible.
That being said, complaining about the organization of the forums here is like complaining about the plot in a porno movie. It sucks. Nobody cares. It will never change. Don't worry about it.
