PC Engine controller in latest Game Informers magazine
« on: September 18, 2007, 06:13:02 PM »
Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but I just got the mag in the mail.  And I was flabergasted to see a dude holding a PCE controller, next to a fire hydrant.  It's on page 32, with an article talking about simpler games that can be downloaded to consoles.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Reminds me of that Dragon Force music video someone posted where a couple of the bandmates are playing a game with PCE controllers.

Thanks for the pics P.D.  Methinks that article must've alluded to simple games for simple minds, 'cause this goof looks borderline retarded.

- check at the 2:56 in the video. Unfortunately I couldn't find the thread that we discussed this in.

EDIT: Looks like the other player is using an NES Advantage :) .

Oviously, he's using a NES to PC-Engine adapter for that controller!  :^o
