my first answer would be "entire library"  but if I had to vote for the one best reason to get a Duo  I wuuuuld say Gate of Thunder (especially on the CD with the 2 Bonk games).

I love LoT, but I like GoT even more, so I voted GoT.

BTW, and I swear I'm not being my usual self here, but is that seriously the entire list of US Super CDs? Twenty seven? Shit. No wonder I switched to imports before the US market even died. That's extremely small. The Super CD was officially released in the US...but just barely...

I assume there won't be a poll for JP SCDs since the forum script probably (hopefully) won't allow for polls with 294 choices in them.

This is a very, very tough poll. So many fantastic games on that list.

I followed the trend and voted Gate of Thunder. I had my finger on Dungeon Explorer 2, but had to go with GoT.

the PCE polls are going entirely by year. I only had to resort to separate CD/SCD polls on the turbo because Pcedaisakusen.net doesn't list year of release for American CD games.

I voted Gate because I think it has to be the best designed game out of those choices and it would probably be my favorite as well.

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

It is hard to choose between Gate and Lords, but Gate is better.  It really shows off the Super CD.  It loads super-hyper-mega fast and is really impressive all around.  It was a giant leap over the non-Super CD games.  It impressed me and still does.

I picked Lords of Thunder, but Gate of Thunder was oh so tempting with its threesome of extra games.

my first answer would be "entire library"  but if I had to vote for the one best reason to get a Duo  I wuuuuld say Gate of Thunder (especially on the CD with the 2 Bonk games).

I agree with Joe in that its hard to choose between Gate and Lords of thunder but i went with Lords of thunder, i think its better in almost every single way i can think of, which is saying a hell of allot.

I was having the same debate and came to the opposite conclusion... How 'bout that.



(Okay, fine, Lords has a better soundtrack, but Gate wins the rest)
