Welcome aboard Missa. Its nice to have a girl visit the forums  :)
Ty, just don't confuse me with those sims playing, neo pet collecting, my husband bought me a game system and I don't know what to do with it kind of women.

My father purchased a NES in 1986 for my sister and I ever since then, I have really enjoyed videogames.  I've since carried on in his ways and when my oldest cousin (I'm the first of my generation) turned 12 I got her a dreamcast with Crazy Taxi and Rez.  (This was a good number of years ago though so the dreamcast was still in stores then.  I'm not cheap or nothin' :roll: )

My favorite genres of games are: 2-D shooters, RPGs, Japanese Music games (like Parappa and Vib Ribbon, but also the Bust a Move series), then probably simulation games or real time stratigy games, but I usually play RTS on the PC.  I also like japanese book novel games like the Yarudora series of games, but I am probably 8 years out of practice at least with my Japanese.  I love that the PC-FX games talk a lot because I wouldn't stand a chance of understanding anything if I tried to read it.  Within a year of playing the FX I hope to get some of my Japanese back ^_^
The other game I feel I should note that I love is Every Extend Extra.  Playing a mine has never been so much fun.

In other words, bullet hell (kinda what I figured).  Have you tried out Super God Trooper Zeroigar yet?  It's not that type of shooter, but beggars can't be choosers when it comes to the FX.

No, I cannot afford it.  I've been thinking of begging my friend in New Zealand's Brother's Wife to bother someone to try to find me a cheap used copy in Tokyo but for the moment I have given up on getting a copy.  I am just happy that my PC-FX has hardly any discoloration and most of it is on the back side :dance:

That would come in handy in so many ways, but especially in trying to figure out how to play songs. How does it work?

Near the bottom right, under the volume and balance controls is something with a note scale on it.  This increases/decreases the tempo and also slightly increases/decreases the pitch.  It works great though.

Wow, I've never played a music CD in my FX. I'll have to try that.

Thats awesome  :) I started my gaming craze on a nes in the late 80's too! You have great taste in gaming, I love 2-D shooters and rpgs. The great thing about pc engine is that it has lots of great ones  8)

Indeed, PCE is the platform for shooters and RPGs.

I would think it likely that after a year with the FX I might be interested in a DUO-R or DUO-RX.

As nice as PC-FX's charm and uniqueness is, you definitely have to check out the PCE! It's legendary!
