WTB Ys Book I and II (TGCD)

[InfraMan]

I have an extra US copy of Ys from a lot I picked up recently. It looks to be in really good shape, with the manual, case, and insert.

I'd be glad to do $45 shipped for it... just shoot me a PM if you're interested.

i'm looking for the English version so that I can actually comprehend the text

Is the PCE version in Japanese? For whatever reason I was led to believe that it was in English as well. And with that I was planning on buying the PCE version instead since it is cheaper.

No, the PC Engine version is definitely all in Japanese and came out before the Turbo version.

Ys IV has a fan translation.

Well thank you for saving me from that hassle

You can (and should) go ahead and get copies of the recent CD homebrew games - Mysterious Song and Pyramid Plunder (among others).

Awesome, I haven't looked into PCE homebrew yet which is odd because i've payed a lot of attention to the Dreamcast and MD homebrew communities. Do you know if these games are still available for purchase? I went to what seemed to be the developers websites but it looks like both of those are sold out.

Thanks again

You can buy Pyramid Plunder here.  He also has produced another homebrew CD game - Insanity for the TG-16/PC Engine.  If you contact him, he will probably give you a package deal with the 2 games together.  Also, he is very near to releasing Atlantean - the first homebrew HuCard release!  I believe that Mysterious Song may be either getting another press run soon or something, or you can add it to your WTB thread.  Several members here bought multiple copies to support it.  There are a couple other CD released homebrew games for TG-16/PC Engine as well.  You can check the list here.
