The images I took photos are readable though, if you click the image thumb, then on ImageShack double click the image and zoom in, the text is readable.

I'm up for doing some more pics if other forum peeps join in and scan or take pics of any PC-Engine/TG-16 articles in Magazines or Fanzines.

I was going to clean up in photoshop but they really aren't good resolution and have alot of noise. I appreciate the photos, but they are hard to read.

Guess what, my friend. I have a ton of scans on my computer, sitting there for nearly 3 years. I'll match every scan of yours with one of my own .

I have a few days of vacation coming up (next week), so I think there is actually a chance that I'll follow through.

I ask only that you follow these scanning guidelines.

I have many of the first Electric Brain Fanzines, around 20/30 of them I think (It wasn't called EB at first but PC Engine Fanatics  - I've a picture on my Hucard article, bottom of the page - these are the ones I have...). However they are all in storage in France, my native country. I probably have some scans laying around but I won't be able to scan anything for some time I'm afraid (as I live in California right now).
I thing EB was available in the UK, a friend of mine sold them to me when I was working there, 7 or 8 years ago...

aha so you're the person behind VG Den, great work, its probably my favorite site for PC Engine reviews.
It would be awesome if you could ever scan those issues of PC Engine Fanatics.

I currently can't meet those guidelines as I don't have a scanner, the best I can do is like the pics I put up in the first post in this thread.

I think it would be cool if we could get a huge thread going with loads of scanned/Photographed PC-E/TG-16 articles.

Thanks mate - VGDen is a lot of work and It'll pass the 500 reviews mark in my coming (soon) update 

I'll try to dig-out the scans I made a couple of years ago (mainly PCE reviews and covers) - but I won't be able to do complete scans for some time as I'm only travelling back to my native country once a year...

We can do better than that .

We can simply add to my site, which has a searchable, re-sortable database:

Why do all this work without sharing it with everyone, right?

Hey! First, I want to say that I received La Bible PC Engine #1 and it really is nice. I am glad to see this project finally come to fruition. Everyone here should consider picking one up, even if you only know a smattering of French.

Second, it would be wonderful to see the scans you have. They could serve as placeholders until better page scans are made .

This was such a looooong project and I'm also glad we finally wrapped it up. The final book is incredible, way beyond my wildest expectations and the whole team has been great. We're now working on Vol#2 which should be (at least) twice the fun 

even if you only know a smattering of French.

I think this is cool, you can learn about the PC Engine and how to speack French in one go ! How good is that ? I don't know that many books out there that can achieve such level of effectiveness
No more seriously, we've been talking about an English version but many factors need to be considered first. That'd funny 'cause I have the opposite problem - a lot of French people have asked me to translate my web site in French... Ill keep ya posted.

I'll try to dig them out this week end... but I've been really busy at work recently, so it may take some time...

Holy cow esteban! When did you update your site? Guess I haven't visited in a while. Looking good!

Hey m1savage

You know, it was only a year ago that I finally updated it. And, truth be told, I wouldn't have done it if the old site hadn't disappeared (my old service provider let the site sit on their servers for almost 2 years before deleting it).

Here's the kicker: all of that work was done and ready to go for... 1-2 years before it went live. If only I had moved back to N.J. sooner....

[m1savage]

Maybe I need to move lol. Glad to see it done.

Side note to lkermel - I still enjoy your site a lot!  I think your link to Adventure Island (Hu) may be broken? I noticed it didn't work for me the other day. (firefox)

Keep up the good work guys!
