It's got every official PCE game ordered by format and date, some pages for peripherals, etc. Nothing you haven't seen before, but it's cute and nice to have!! It's also real cheap from amazon japan!! get it!

Yea I got a copy a few days ago from amazon.co.jp

I haven't really looked at it yet but it's just been sitting here.

I like it so far - seeing everything laid out (mostly) chronologically is teaching me some things. I never thought about how bomberman didn't come out til the third year of the console's life!

Thanks for the heads up exodus, ordered! On a side note, I love Amazon Japan so very much.

Print IS forever after all.

Damn. It says it can't ship to my address for some reason.

You can just buy it on ebay.

Yea I might. Only thing is they are 2 to 4 times the price.

It's $26.99 on PlayAsia, plus whatever they charge for shipping.  Maybe that'll be better for ya, toaks.

The book looks cool (there's even a blurb on the PCE-LD1), but so many moon runes.  I'm not keen on spending my pennies on a picture book.

I’m glad you said that. I feel the same way and thought I was missing something in the previous posts.

Regardless of whether you can read it (disclosure: I can), it's still every PCE game with dates and photos for $20. Frankly the info in it is pretty sparse anyway, though there are a few neat things from time to time. Just saying it's a bit less about the words and more about seeing a complete chronology of the system, including games you might not otherwise be browsing through. Worth it to me! (but again, I can get more out of it reading the thing)

I wish there were two pics for each game at least, one of the box and another of gameplay.  Maybe there is?

EDIT:


The mag is roughly 230-ish pages of cataloging pc engine games and peripherals and also including pc engine publications around that period ie pc engine gekkan, fan etc.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Six images are too many.  Clash does not approve.
