Solscud007 Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 Went to a shop here in LA sort of like the Japanese rental lockers where they have these display cases that people rent and put thier stuff in and price each item. Anyway I found some old PC Engine/Turbo Grafx 16 games. All Japanese. The best one was Knight Rider Special. It is a cheesy 80's style racing game similar to Sega's Outrun. I got a plane side scroller, Thunder Blade ( A crappy helicopter game), and the second Best is called Image Fighter. Made by irem (the people who made the current R-Type Final for PS2. It is a birds eye side scroller like the macross arcade game. great graphics. The Knight Rider game is the best cause at teh intro has a great midi of the Knight Rider theme song and there is one vocal of KITT saying "Maikuru ikimashou" (Let's Go Michael in japanese) Each game was only 6 dollars mint with original packaging and instructions.

zeo-mare Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 nice to see there are some more PC engine Fans on this board make sure you get the CD rom and pick up Macross 2036 (the sidescrolling shooter not the Strategy game), Dracula X and the Ancient Ys Vanished series. Quote

TheLoneWolf Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 As awesome as Dracula X is, it looks a whole lot better on the Xbox with the Mame2x filter applied. Quote

What place in LA did you go to? Was it in Little Tokyo? Quote
JB0 Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 As awesome as Dracula X is, it looks a whole lot better on the Xbox with the Mame2x filter applied. I prefer Rondo of Blood in it's natural form. I really don't like pattern recognition filters. Quote
