It's been a long time coming for this but I finally got my PC engine duo-r. Thanks to everyone here for there help and knowledge, and especially to Mickris for referring me to Leon in Toronto Canada to handle my RGB mod. He did a quality, professional job. Very highly recommended if your in Canada.
Here's a pic of my current set up.
Games I have at the moment are:
Spriggan 2
Download
Dragon spirit
Ancient Ys book 1•2
R type Delta
Hell fire
They all bring back amazing gaming memories. Does anyone have advice of how to play Ys? Can you link me to a guide or do you reccomend playing with translation patch?
