Hi guys!

My name is Ryan and I am here, because a few months ago a friend of mine had me over, and he had just gotten a Duo. We played the 3 in one CD game that included the two bonks games and Gates of thunder.

I was truly amazed at the shooter, and the bonk games as well. (Never played a NEC nor knew anyone that has every owned one)

It was an extremely cool system, and so I decided to purchase a TG16 unit when I stumbled across it for a decent price.  I purchased a few games, like Blazing lazers, and Cybercore, and Devils crush. By that point I had been bitten by the NEC bug. Now I am currently on the hunt for a Duo update from my TG16 as I do want to be able to play CD and Super CD games. and it seems the best way to do that is getting a Duo.


Anyways,

I just wanted to introduce myself, and thank you for having an amazing forum on this totally amazing system.

~ Ryan

Well I just was really blown away. Like you always hear stuff about these systems. But I really think it knocks the socks off of the other 16 bit systems.

The amount of sprites on screen with 0 slow down really won me over. I  love how powerful it is for the 8/16 bit system it is. It does not do some things as well as the SNES or genesis, but I really just fell in love with the system.

I hope to learn a lot on here, and maybe re-home my old TG16 to someone who would like it, as I wont be needing it since I will soon have a duo.

Welcome. If you 've got the time to learn, learn about the wonders the PC engine has to offer, then hope over to Kieth Courage's or torboken's threads to pick up a DUO. 

Also post over on the What game are you playing thread!

I'm going to try to play some Atlantian homebrew myself

If i ever win this war with Esteban.  How does he respond and read all these threads, he must be a god among obey
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

I will for sure contact Keith, as I have a fellow retro gamer friend who had a great experience with him. (Keith's duo is the one I played). I Need to look at the FS Thread, and find out what a TG16 is worth with power/RF. I want to keep the controller, as I just love the color scheme. Maybe Keith would take partial trade in towards a Duo.

I am extremely excited to get the 3 in 1 disc, and play Gate of Thunder again.

no need to "have" to go CD, there are many HuCard games all over the place, everywhere, and many are better than CD stuff.

I have been running errands all day, so my phone is on perma-pcefx...

A TSUNAMI COULD BE HEADING FOR NJ and I'd be arguing about autofire vs manliness.
