  1. You ask a good question. No idea WHAT HE stands for. The Super Grafx was a really pathetic attempt to upgrade the PCEngine to compete with Genesis and SNES mroe evenly. It added one background layer to teh graphics chipset, for a grand total of 2. Unfortunately... A. It wasn't a very big deal. Parallax scrolling was nice, but other upgrades would've been more appreciated. B. The PCE couldn't really make effective use of both layers anyways. Not enough power. Let me find pics... ... There's 2 seperate CD drives. The V1 CD drive was about the same size and shape a s a core unit. And white, like original PCEs. It docked into a suitcase-sized adapter that the PCEngien also docked into. They sat beside each other. http://www.goldenshop.com.hk/AI-trad/colle..._scdconsole.jpg That's a CoreGrafx docked with a V1 CD. http://www.goldenshop.com.hk/AI-trad/colle...g/pc_ampset.jpg And the original white model(ignore the amp under it). The second version of the CD-ROM drive looks like this... http://www.goldenshop.com.hk/AI-trad/colle..._cdrom2core.jpg And the TG16 is bigger than the PCEngine because "bigger is better".
  2. Screw it all. See below. But no, the only PCEngine product to upgrade the processor beyond the original CD-ROM expansion was the PCFX. Not the Duo.
  3. Huh. Says it's a PD game. *makes note to find ROM image.*
  4. Well, I have a sort of love-hate relationship with MAME anyways. It's the only thing that emus a lot of the stuff I want, but other things have been left broken for ages, even after fixes were found. And the hypocrisy of the MAME team annoys me. "It's all about preservation and documentation, not playing games. We won't add a hack for optical encoder steering wheels, even though it would make them work more like the arcade machine does, because that would be UNFAITHFUL EMULATION! Now watch as we slap in 3 diffrent hacks for potentiometer emulation, including our utterly nonsensical "pedals are digital" hack, and a hack to make Defender work like it uses a standard joystick to make it more playable for people that get confused easily!" Oh and... "We don't emulate games that are still actually making money. Huh? why are Ms. PacMan and Galaga in there? And why did we just expend the effort to make Blitz 2K work right? Ummm... STOP ASKING QUESTIONS!"
  5. lol heathen be gone!!!!!!!!! ugg. You guys just have BAD taste. I have always thought that any and all Street Fighter games should be based on that movie. Amusingly enough, there IS a Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game.
  6. Because they like to mess with your mind.

    About PS2 Macross Game

    HAHAHA!
  8. What if I KAWAKSed them? Didn't KAKWAKS only play one of them? Well, in any case, I suppose KAWAKSing them is pretty much the same as MAMEing them. Different GUI's, same result. I thought they'd added CPS1 to KAWAKs. Ah well... I don't actually recall what CPS1 emu I used. Just know I used Kawaks for CPS2. I was kind of being sarcastic anyways. Just reminding everyone that there ARE other arcade emus out there.
  9. I thought EVERYBODY claimed rights for DYRL.
  10. Ah. I thought there was some sort of PC98 extender to make a DOS PC behave more like a PC98(since the hardware is similar, if what I've read is accurate). My mistake.
  11. I liked the Mario movie. Of course, I realize that the position it's in, somewhere between a "real" Hollywood film and a Mario game on the big screen, leaves it with almost no one to enjoy it. The gamers wanted something more, well, Mario. The rest of the world wanted something more like every other movie. I looked at it as an alternate Mario of sorts. Like Mario Land on the GameBoy. Or Super Mario 2 on NES. Another variant on the theme, albiet a darker one than usual.
  12. They also run a game of Trek up one of the bridge monitors in one episode. I think there's a few othre references, but I'm not sure.
  13. http://www.wolfgames.com/dcmacrossm3le.jpg Got cardstock?
  14. Sometimes they're left in because it can affect the rest of hte game to dummy them out. This is usually older games, though. And sometimes they leave them in to reward insane hammering of random buttons. What if I KAWAKSed them?
  15. WHY does everyone want to see EVERYTHING remade as a live-action movie?!?!?!?!?!?!
  16. It's possible the PC-98 extensions you were using aren't compatible with Win98 anyways. I'd recommend a full PC-98 emulator, personally. http://www.zophar.net/pc98.html
  17. MacrossDotting: The new internet plague.
  18. Now that you mention it, I DO See a certain ChoRyuJin influence. ... Damn you to Wisconsin for tainting GGG with that abomination of a Crayola box!
  19. Yeah, about that: Thank you guys for exceeding her bandwidth before I had a chance to droo....See her site I never hit the site either.
  20. The bundled movie is the Street Fighter 2 Animated movie which was only released edited and dubbed in the US. Not the Alpha movie, SF2V series or any others...just the original SF2 movie. As for those pads...for those interested, they do have a website Streetfighter Controller If they have better D-pads than the Ascii ones (which were great, just apparantly not able to stand up well)...I guess it'd be a good investment.[ I don't think its the actual SF 2 anime movie. Taken from NCSX.coms info It says its interactive? What is it like Dragons Lair? lol Sounds like it. That genre refuses to die off for some inexplicable reason. As a side-note, I've been rummaging up some reviews of Nuby products, and they seem to be considerd fairly decent overall. Which makes them a far better 3rd party than, say, MadCatz(how do these people stay in business, anyways?).
  21. I've only had a little time on the Saturn. But I really like the pad, and it's widely regarded as one of the best-functioning gamepads out there. Pity the system folded in America, really. It deserved better. ... And I still play the old Genesis and SNES.
  22. Bleh. I'll just beat someone up and steal their saturn pads, I guess.
  23. Dun have a new one, but I DID clean up a certain well-recieved but over-exposed Pikachu girl. Amazing what a little cleanup will do.
  24. I just cleaned out my NES good and it worked like a dream. Everyone cleans the carts(I HOPE), but few people get into the deck and nail the cart connector with anything. ... Said connector is due a pin flexing though. They're getting bent out of position, and some of my games have quit working right. I can piggy-back a GameGenie to get my pickier carts to work, but it's a nuisance.
  25. It was actually put in intentionally. There's no other way, as they had no reason to even poll gamepad 2 otherwise. It was likely put in for purposes of beta-testing and they just forgot to disable it afterwards.
