Search the forum for "Fly Wing"...a fellow member shared it years ago. I had never seen one, either.

This is PCE compatible....I think the company sold same model for other consoles, too.

Why does the hori wing commander have 2 sets of a+b ?  For handedness ? I can't imagine trying to use both at the same time

I guess it's supposed to allow both right-handed and left-handed to use it properly.

Darn...you know, google no longer caches the forums...(it used to be really easy to search for stuff w/ Le Google).

If Necromancer (or _________) has pity on us, he may be able to find the original thread.

I'll look, too.

Is this just an obscure PC Engine hardware thread or can it be other stuff as well?

I got that Rolfee book recently and have no idea of its origins.

Awesome thread.  Lots of stuff I've never seen before.  Thanks for sharing!

I don't own any obscure PCE stuff. :(

Thanks for posting pics.

Question: anything in that book about a miniature Rolfee figure?

There is an ad in a PCE magazine where a (possibly homemade) ROLFEE miniature is pictured.

WELL, THAT IS MY SPECULATION...I have no clue, really.

Isn't it the resin kit Rolfee?
