PC engine was just a souped up 8-bit machine and I already played a NES
Well, to be fair, I didn't know about the CD add-on until sometime around 2020.
Well, it is technically 8-bit, but it could still do a lot of things the NES couldn't do, especially with the CD add-on. Pic related, it's one of my favorite Turbo CD games.
>look it up
>its just some shitty shmup #1554
yawn
Yes, there are a lot of shmups on Turbo CD. But also a lot of other cool titles like its ports of Strider and Double Dragon II, Mad Stalker, Kaze Kiri Ninja Action, Kaizo no Shubibinman 3, and others. It also got some decent SEGA titles like Golden Axe, Gain Ground, as well as Power Drift and OutRun on regular HuCards
>decent SEGA titles like Golden Axe
>decent
are you trying to false flag
>Golden Axe
>Power Drift
I'm a huge supporter and proponent of PC Engine, but those Sega ports are ASS
i love the pce. prefer it for it's arcade ports and platformers though, not one of those gross /vr/ weebs. Ys IV is an incredible game though
slew of awesome taito, namco, masaya, irem and hudson games on it. the konami capcom and sega games are nice too
Red was like the pce's Treasure, pound for pound the strongest dev on the system
strider is ok cuz it's still strider and has some extras, but its very disappointing. nec avenue made much better capcom ports like forgotten worlds and side arms
golden axe is literal hot garbage, thanks telenet, though they made an "ok" port of columns
not really, most of Ganker has played rondo
Can you recommend me some good platformers? I've only played some of the Valis games, Fausette Amour, the aforementioned Strider, a little bit of Rondo, Bonk 3, Chiki Chiki Boys, a few others. Also how do you feel about Bonanza Bros? I feel like certain Turbo CD games are hard for me to get into because they still feel very NES-era to me and I'm more familiar with 16-bit (Genesis and SNES) style games.
Also the fighting games look pretty good, I've only played Advanced V.G. but the SNK ports look solid. I really like the remixed soundtracks
most of the best platformers are on hucard, it's not even close. the CD just gets more attention because it has rondo
must play below, some even genre defining
>rondo
>bonk 2
>liquid kids
>ninja spirit
>new adventure island
>parasol stars
>sonson ii
>ninja gaiden (i love this port, others will disagree)
>legendary axe I
>wonderboy iii dragon trap
rest are good games
>valis 1 remake
>bonk 1 (i love it but i admit it's unpolished)
>dragon egg
>wonderboy monster land (fricking hard but has a continue cheat)
>new zealand story (fricking hard)
>shockman
>shinobi
>tonma
>momotaro katsugeki
>pac-land (antiquated but important)
>rainbow islands
>zipang (best port of solomon's key)
>gekisha boy
>jackie chan
>bazaru de gozaru (unique puzzle platformer game, one of the last games to be released)
>kid dracula (spike mcfang is the sequel)
bonanza bros is a great port but not my cup of tea
kaze kiri is a must play for the boss fights and cool controls, but the stages are a let down, and no platforming
strider and wonderboy monster world are great games that are unfortunately superior on genesis
not a valis series fan overall. shubibinman 3 is a weird one, technically impressive but feels literally unfinished
eternal city is very unique, closest to metroid on the pc engine, but never really got far in it
It's the best 8 bit console though, that ain't nothing to sneeze at, white boy
On paper.
In practice the game is far beyond the NES.
and?
I’ve never even seen one in real life, and I’ll be fricked if I’m emulating anything
What do you mean? It's easier to emulate than the average SNES game.
emulation is just straight up soulless and anti-fun
Baffling to still see takes like yours on this board. No disrespect, you're out of touch and need to get with the times.
Maybe have a nice day? Some of us want the real thing.
>nshittybab is an anti-emulation moron
shocking.
The frick do you propose is unfun about, er.. playing the fricking game?
What I meant was I just flat out don’t care for emulation. I have multiple consoles ranging from 2nd gen to 6th and that’s what I play. If I find myself with enough money maybe I will get a TG -16 one day, but it’s just not high on my priority list.
Cadash and Shadow of the Beast Super CD are pretty good
I know nothing of its library beyond the anime breasts.
It has no anime breasts, i think you are confusing it with PC-88/98
>He didn't play the superior SEGA CD version
Sad
I find this to be the case with SEGA Saturn too, but there are a few good titles mixed in if you are willing to sift through some of the mediocre ones, imo
>It has no anime breasts
It has a few
https://warosu.org/vr/thread/S9168626#p9169014
Only one I played was the Ninja Gaiden port that sucked ass
does rondo of blood count
Not OP, but I don't see why not. Not my personal favorite Turbo CD game, but to each his own
played it?
I lived it
I spent a few hours last night playing PC Engine. The console was a little pricey, but I suspected I would get my money’s worth just from the Gradius and Gradius II ports alone and I was correct. I tried Atomic Robo Kid for the first time last night. Fun game.
No thanks I'm not into hentai.
you want me to join you in shit talking others because they missed out on playing Ys?
If you don't mind.
>tfw I played a PC Engine game before I even knew what a PC Engine was
(Thank you Wii Virtual Console)
That's also how I found out about it. The game I bought was Galaga '90.
/vr/ is normie territory. There are people on here who play fifa soccer and call of duty.
What a great console, you've got splatterhouse, you've got bonk's adventure, you've got 70 fricking metric shitloads of shmups. It has it all.
There's just way too many shmups. There's only two or three worth playing in the entire genre, if you've played them you've played them all. The rest of the library is cool but you have to cross out like 800 shmups to get to them.
Not enough moviegames for ya?
>He didn't play the superior SEGA CD version
You mean the one that is piss easy? Just for that reason it can't be superior
This shmuphead made a video reviewing every single PC Engine shmup, no excuses
and they're all mediocre
I said no excuses b***h, if you aren't planning to play them then don't talk
Which Ys? 1-2 on PCE are must plays, 4 is good too and 3 is definetly an acquired taste, the music of 3 though is a must listen
That's lying, no one with common sense would deny Rondo of Blood is the best game on the console, its also one of the best games ever made after all.
>a video game opinion is lying
I agree Rondo is great though. I don't know if I'd place it as the best game on the console or not since I haven't explored the library much.
>That's lying, no one with common sense would deny Rondo of Blood is the best game on the console, its also one of the best games ever made after all.
The Dynastic Hero is better.
while I would say that, yeah, console shmups in general were made for small children and tweens and they shouldn't be representative of the entire genre with their broken scoring, long-ass stages, and powerup dodging...they are pretty good for what they are, or what they were back then at least. their idea was to bring the acade experience home, and to make it a bit easier to compensate for not having to take your money all the time.
How can the Sufami and Mega Drive compete?
Imagine my surprise when I found this game has a surprisingly accurate GBC port
>2 files in PC engine folder
>Akumajou Dracula X Chi No Rondo.cue
>Akumajou Dracula X Chi No Rondo.bin
Forgot image
You're missing out, anon. It's far from the best game on there imo
Yeah yeah, you played Dawn of Ys and think you're enlightened now.
N word I own a PC Engine just like you I just don't want to play 500 different clones of the same space shooter. I just stick with TwinBee and call it a day.
>i bought a console known for being a shmup heaven but i hate shmups
You are so bad at lying dude
Suck my left nut
It is better to lie than to prove that you are just a moron
ROFL
you got blown the frick out
If Bonk didnt have like a million frames of pre jump I think the PCE wouldve taken off overseas. These games are really fun and soulful but the jumping feels like Bonk's feet are stuck to the ground. Compares to Mario and Sonic who leave the ground near instantly its not great gamefeel.
NEC's marketing was just crap
Can't believe they predicted emojis back then
>calls itself PC Engine
>doesn't play any actual PC games that came out at the time other than some shitty watered down ports made specifically for consolegays
Remind my why people bought this piece of shit instead of buying an actual computer?
>calls itself Family Computer
>doesn't play any actual computer games that came out at the time other than some shitty watered down ports made specifically for consolegays
Remind my why people bought this piece of shit instead of buying an actual computer?
Exactly.
>calls itself PlayStation
>doesn't actually have any space station functionality, instead it just plays dogshit ass Stuart Little games
Remind me why people bought this dogshit instead of an actual space station?
>calls itself Genesis
>doesn't actually have any bible texts just some shitty bongland ports
remind me why people bought this dogshit instead of an actual bible?
Have you played any PC-88 or MSX games from the era? This hardware was more suited for assburger shit like wRPGs, strategies, graphic adventures and of course eroge.
>MSX
>calls itself homosex
>actually probably has some yaoi or yuri shit
oh...
>Family Computer
>Not a computer
It had its own BASIC programming kit.
>he doesn't know
Even I'm impressed
Why did you post a PC-98 video?
Recommend me games with good graphics that aren't shmups or JRPG's
Ninja spirit
Mahjong
Legendary axe
If you like beat 'em ups, I highly recommend Mad Stalker, Kaze Kiri Ninja Action, and Double Dragon II. The Valis series also has nice graphics, at least for me
Splatterhouse
Last Alert, Devil Crash and Kaze Kiri come to mind
Take that broom out of your ass, some console exclusive shmups of the 4th-5th gen were absolutely better than a lot of arcade offerings
>fatal fury special
>new adventure island
>soldier blade
>parasol stars
>ninja spirit
>samurai ghost
>kaze kiri
>outrun
What the frick is up with all the single screen games on this system
Name 5.
>PC-Engine
It's called a turbografx 16 you pleb and I played tons of Bonk on Wii Virtual Console when I was a kid
>There are "people" on /vr/ who haven't played a single PC-Engine game
That's a good thing. The last thing I want are EOP normies hoarding all the good PC Engine games.
I wanna play the Godzilla game that is a semi remix of the vs game for SNES. the PC Engine CD version has a more cinematic feel to it
Does Cosmos Cosmic Adventure counts?
>if you don't go out of your way to play the fourth most successful 16 bit console (barely released in your country) you are subhuman
I honestly wish most people who go on /vr/ would just die. Just die.
Because installing an emulator is hard
When I install a program, it's because I intend to use it.
So I would never install a TG-16 emulator.
The point, you fricking goldfish, is that the sales being low in your country isn't an excuse to not be able to play the thing.
I'm able to play it just fine. But why?
>fourth most successful
Which one would be the third?
>there are people on /vr/ who haven't played any pce games besides rondo
FTFY
Okay.
Why should anyone care what a pedophile thinks?
Cotton is the only PC Engine game I played, because the music was superior to the arcade release.
I don't like shmups
PC engine is overrated and only loved by hentai gays
>the console I can't even correctly identify is overrated
okay, this is epic.
The post you were responding to was in response to this
>>if you don't go out of your way to play the fourth most successful 16 bit console (barely released in your country) you are subhuman
While you're off on an entirely different tangent. Keep up m8. The entire point of that post was that emulation invalidates "muh sales in muh country too hard to get".
Okay.
Why would I go out of my way to emulate a console I don't particularly like the catalog of?
>the console I can't even correctly identify
wut, are you moronic or just dumb? PC engine is famous for hentai games due to allowing games to be released without rating
Ehh there are some eroge ports by NEC Avenue like like Dragon Knight and Doukyusei but they're censored to a non-adult level; they don't even show nipples. Basically the same thing as modern CERO D eroge ports on the Switch.
Separate from those, there's a handful of games with "anime shower scene"-type service shots with bare breasts (
) but there's no sex in those.
>PC engine is famous for hentai games
that wasn't till much later in its life when the super famicom was eating its lunch, and games switched to CD only
>There are people on /vr/ that don't rank Hudson as the all time 2nd best developer
What a shithole.
I would like to hear your top ten.
I have played lots of PC Engine games.
There are a few I really would like translated, but the scene is basically dead.
I haven't beaten either quite yet, but Bonk's Adventure and Air Zonk are two of my favorite games on the platform. The Wonder Boy III port is also kino.
>The Wonder Boy III port is also kino.
BOTH wonderboy 3 ports are kino, anon
the naming for this series is so weird. it's also odd how each of the pce wonderboy games had different levels of alteration
monster land
>bosses and characters changed
dragon trap
>only main character changed
monster lair
>nothing changed at all
monster world
>bosses and characters AND soundtrack changed
I don't even really understand what PC-Engine is.
The Turbografx-16 in Japan, but with a much larger and higher-quality library and selection of titles ranging from HU-Cards to CD games to Super CD and Arcade Card CD games.
Huh, I always thought it was one of those old TV computers like the Commodore 64 based on the name.
That's partly why it was re-branded for North America since the "PC" moniker would've made it confusing to market.
It is the shit is what it is. It just has a terribly generic sounding name.
I just assumed it was some silly marketing thing since they were known for the PC-88 and 98 at the time. As if they were trying to tell the customer "It's not exactly a PC, but it has the engine of one! Which we are experts at making!" or some shit. I don't know if that makes any sense.
The "Engine" part of the name was Hudson's influence, since the company is named after the Hudson Steam Engine.
I kinda remember reading that NEC used to had the term "PC" trademarked in Japan, hence the use of パソコン/pasokon as a generic term for personal computers over there.
Not only was the "PC" used to tie it in to NEC's computers' branding, "Engine" is supposed to convey that this console is as powerful as a computer. Hence why "TurboGrafx" was made the international name, to make it sound like the best system among the console speed and graphics war (especially compared to the NES' graphics and power, hence the early TG commercials).
This is really reaching.
