Hi Thibaut

.

I would revise your post with a note that the prices are in USD. I'd also add the format that folks here are more accustomed with (just put your original prices in parentheses):

$2,000 USD ($2.000)

I know it seems redundant, but I think it would make things clearer.

Good luck!

P.S. There was a bounty on PC Cocoron in the past, issued by a fellow PCE fan, but nothing came of it... I hope you succeed in finding this game! It intrigues me to no end!

The decimals confused me too!

I am pretty sure it was Jammaniaclord (www.magicengine.com forums) who offered $300-900 to anyone who could provide PC Cocoron. As far as I know, he didn't even get any solid leads...

Keranu · « **Reply #5 on:** June 25, 2006, 06:12:11 PM »

I think at one point Jammaniaclord was even offering $1000 or so for it, but he gave up sometime last year. I also heard that there is a person in Jamma's direct connect hub that claims to have the game, but will not share or sell it.

I remember this, it was Jammanialord who made a bounty. How long ago was it? Can't remember for sure, tho.

Keranu · « **Reply #7 on:** June 26, 2006, 04:36:11 PM »

He made his epic bounty two years ago I think, though I think he has technically been looking for it ever since the early 90's. It was just until two-three years ago when he performed and intense search

To my knowledge, the only person who has flaunted a copy of PC Cocoron is known as Yuki. This person has blatantly shoved it in the face of PCE collectors and has sworn to neither sell it nor dump it.

Keranu · « **Reply #9 on:** June 27, 2006, 06:44:06 PM »

Sounds like we might be talking about the same guy. If he really does own that game, yeesh what an a$$hole.

That's interesting. I never doubted that PC Cocoron existed in some form. The weird thing is that over the course of the PCE's life, PC Cocoron was announced a number of times. It had at least two concrete dates that I can remember. Of course each time the dates slipped into the unknown.

I'll have to go back to my old mags and do some digging. I never did notice anything about why the game never came out, but it seemed to me that there had to have been some retail copies made. I believe the game was even reviewed by at least one PCE mag. Not only that, there was a similar situation with Imperial Force. Not sure if any specific dates were mentioned for that game, but it was basically delayed forever. Both games were done by the same team (Sur de wave ??) and it turned out that they never even officially released anything on the PCE.

It's a shame. Both games looked interesting to me. But I read on a webpage somewhere that PC Cocoron, despite it's colorful gfx, had ok gameplay. I don't remember the link now, but I wonder if the webpage was by that Yuki person.

The only game I have by Sur De Wave is "Nostalgia 19xx" (

) for the Mega CD. It came with 2 CD's: the game itself and an amazing soundtrack.

Has anyone played the Famicom Cocoron game? Are they related? It was featured on one of the Japanese video game shows that Ninja Spirit provided in the YouTube threads. They didn't really show much, if any, gameplay. But they did show the famicom cart and its label. I really don't know anything about the game, except that you "construct" your character out of parts from a toybox. At least, that's what I read on some website...

No, I didn't want to google before posting. Sue me!

Not sure about the Fami Cocoron (don't remember it), but I found the page I was thinking about. Maybe you can tell me if it's similar to the FC version.

PC Cocoron review. It's in Japanese, but there's plenty of pictures.

Update: I explored more of the site, and it seems it is indeed made by Yuki.

Holy crap. I've never seen actual screenshots of PC Cocoron. Goddam!

So, obviously I have to do some research, but was Sur de Wave a European company? Or was it a Japanese company that specialized in bringing European games to the PCE?

I ask because Nostalgia 19xx always struck me as a game that would have originally appeared on a computer platform (Amiga, PC, ST). And the screenshots for PCE Cocoron strike me as VERY "Amiga platformer from European developer" ...

Thanks for the site, akamichi. I have been to this site before a few times, but never saved it.
