PCE 30 Years Book (CANCELLED)

[sunteam_paul]

In 2017, the PC Engine will be 30 years old. To celebrate this event, I hope to gather stories, photos and memories of the PC Engine and/or TurboGrafx-16 from the community and compile them into a free book that anyone can view online or download and print.

This book will be a community project, written by us, for us.

I'm looking for virtually anything you have to say about the PC Engine, which can include:
When you first saw a PCE/TG.
General memories, events (serious, funny, happy or sad) concerning the PCE/TG.
Stories about the PCE/TG (real or fictional is OK!)
PCE/TG related artwork you want to share.
Photos of you, your setup, you playing, or just being silly with your PCE/TG.
Anything else PCE/TG related that you can think of!

You can send any content or enquiries to me at paul[at]pcengine.co.uk or message me on the forums here (If you have large/many images then I suggest using a service such as wetransfer.com)

If you are contributing, when you send information, please let me know the name or handle which you would like to be credited as and a photo of you (or something to represent yourself) that I can use as an avatar of sorts with your comments.

LET'S MAKE THIS AN EPIC BOOK WORTHY OF THE PCE!

Oh man, this is going to be so damn cool!!

[Groover]

This is really cool.

[sunteam_paul]

I expect hair-dryer stories to be submitted!

[geise]

LOL.  Man Bernie, it's never going away.  This is awesome paul.  Now do you have a Tatsujin to english translator if he is going to add anything?  Probably not though.  FB has sucked the life out of him.

[SplatterTrigger]

This is going to be amazing. I plan on contributing Paul!

You may just want to translate La Bible PC Engine from french to english 

[pixeljunkie]

This is rad! Definitely will contribute

[blueraven]

Will definitely be sending something about the repair threads and walkthroughs, and the Folklore that the community has created, through memes, modifications, raffles, chat, etc.

I can either do an academic analysis of these things, or make it totally informal. Maybe a bit of both.

Anything and everything is good. A lot of the book would be informal, almost like a collection of forum posts showing a range of opinions and experiences, so anything deeper would also provide a welcome variety.

Man, at least right now(getting sleepy), I wouldn't know where to begin...

[tknjin]

This is fantastic, I would love to contribute as well

Off topic but this is the kind of thing I would be interested in. I could easily translate from French to English. Where can I find a pdf or physical version of this book?

[Sarumaru]

Oh god. When I first saw this post I got so excited and piddled. I'd like to contribute in a number of ways. Mainly with artwork though and a story perhaps.
