PCE Works- Dracula X - Standard Edition - New Release
« on: May 03, 2016, 12:04:19 AM »
For anyone who missed out on the PCE Works "deluxe" edition reproduction last year and doesn't want to shell out $230+ for a copy on eBay, they now have a two disc (one is in English) "standard" edition for sale. I bought mine for just under $70 shipped to the US.

This version is very similar to the deluxe edition. The packaging is different and you miss out on a sticker, but still get the bookmark and mini poster. Personally. I think this edition looks a little nicer.

I am in no way affiliated with the company, just thought I would share with anyone else who is a Dracula X fan.

Are you sure that it's a two disc bundle?

The picture only shows one CD from what I can see, and the description doesn't mention including an English-translated CD, just an English manual.

If he's charging money for the fan-translated English-patched CD as well, then he's crossing-the-line again.

You paid $70 for a bootleg PCE game?

You f*cked up.

If you buy the English version from "PCEWorks", you are encouraging him to bootleg more fan translations which will make more hackers/translators/programmers abandon the PCE scene.

This Drac X set in all of its incarnations has already done enough damage.

Every year there is a new graduating class, and every year two million more noobs jump into the fight for the same supply of PCE games.

Still praying for the crash...

Why does it seem like no one does any research before buying boots.

I guess if you made a thread about how research saved you from falling for some bs no one would care.

I am definitely a PC Engine noob and am also new to these forums. I wanted nothing more than to share this info with those who might want a copy. There is supposed to be an English translated disc which accompanies this set, but it is a "limited" supply. I own an original copy of Dracula X, but thought it would be nice to have an English manual and artwork, even if it is a bootleg. From what I have heard, the quality is very good.

$70 may sound like a lot, but considering an original copy of Drac X sells "cheap" for $175, I'd say it's a reasonable price for two discs. Not trying to stir the pot, I'd rather, "share the love."
