Best year for game releases on the PC-Engine?
« on: June 11, 2009, 01:19:55 AM »
After reading through the best game of the year threads I got to wondering what was the best overall year for game releases on the PC-Engine, so here's a poll thread to decide  :P

As a reminder of the games released I've linked to these threads with lists for each year:

for me it was hard choice between 92 & 93.

1992 includes: Soldier Blade, Gate Of Thunder, Star Parodier, PC Denjin, Gekisha Boy, Cho Aniki, TwinBee, Bomberman '93, Shubibinman 3, Nexzr, Parodius, Pop'n Magic, Tatsujin etc..

1993 includes: Winds Of Thunder, Dracula X, Sylphia, Magical Chase (FAN Edition), Dungeon Explorer II, PC Genjin 3, Cotton, Bomberman '94, Rainbow Islands, Nexzr Special, Street Fighter II etc..

92 has a larger quantity of good games but for me 93 wins it for those big PCE Killer apps released in that year.

'93 all the way - Bomberman '94, Dracula X, Cotton, Dungeon Explorer II, Bonk 3, Street Fighter 2, and Ys IV.  It just don't get much better than that.  8)

Cool I agree  :D , but you didn't vote yet? as there's only one vote so far for 93 which was my one.

man, this was a toughie. 1990 and 1992 were serious contenders, but 1993 beat them all.

Tough choice between 1992 and 1993 for me, but I went with 1993.
