Ultimate weeb console and I'm not being insulting.
Its JRPGs are NEVER EVER receiving fan translations because they use unsubtitled voiced audio tracks for dialogue and the way the cutscenes are coded make use of every last bit of ram meaning its near impossible to add English subtitles.

Damn nice little system. Its decently cheap. The turbo everdrive works damn well and is one of the cheaper everdrives.

There are a lot of shmups though there is a lot of different genres.

I remember being absolutely blown away by bonk when my friend rented a tg16 in the NES heyday.

For someone who appreciates retro for retro it's almost a must have console. It wasn't as popular here and didn't have popular mascots like its contemporaries but it's a fine system.

There actually is, but it can be dependent on the base console. Some are less noisy than others.
My white PCE had video noise on a PVM and higher line count consumer CRT when using RGB. I'm guessing composite would blur the results enough that you might not notice the video problems. The audio definitely had a hum to it on quiet menus and places without music in game. I did the FURGB and the FBX audio amp and it significantly improved the video and audio output.

Terraonion actually went back on their word regarding them not doing another hardware revision.
After selling their remaining v2 stock they have now started selling a new v3 with tweaked versions of FBX's audio and Voultars RGB circuitry that they've developed in collaboration.
Kind of a bummer but at least it's fixed now. I have already gotten FBX's audio bypass since the overblowing audio was kind of shitty anyways.
The RGB output I can pretty much live with. Dunno if it's something to do with my console but even on an LCD interference is only barely visible in darker colored areas and is indeed completely unnoticeable on my CRT

After the first revision the video output isn't that bad. Noisier than it should be, yes, but if you don't feel like doing the bypass it's still acceptable. The sound problems were inexcusable though. Swapped L/R CD audio channels? I mean really?

Yeah, at least they're (finally) fixing it, but what a shitshow this has been.

Honestly the swapped channels are a minor problem compared to the clipping audio.
The adjustment option for the cd volume was really only a bandaid since it still wouldn't fully prevent clipping and it ruined volume balance with the normal pce audio.
The swapped channels they actually fixed in software by the way. The latest firmware fixes it.
The clipping is sadly based on the hardware and can't really be fixed without replacing the audio circuitry itself.

I'm not sure what makes you think those things are limitations for emulation and romhacking. The real reason it's never going to get translations is because there's no demand for them and translators have dozens if not hundreds of other projects they'd rather work on.

That's a big wew lad for you kiddo. There were hundreds of mutiplayer games for the PCE. It must really suck to be such a hard core fanboi of whatever you are that you not only miss out on some great games but embarrass yourself.

Lots of games had parallax scrolling and many did it better than download. Like many claims that x system can't do y this is a meme parroted by underage who can't lrn2code. The anon you replied to did qualify the statement by saying "layers" and that's not how they're done on the PCE or NES or other systems from that period. It's not clear if he understands that you can do parallax scrolling without using "layers".

i'm a pc engine fan but you have to be delusional. it had the smallest library, least 3rd party support and a glut of shooters and digital comics

Emulates well with Mednafen and Magic Engine. Lots of fun games. It is like the NeoGeo of the 8-bit era. If you want to use real hardware, I would highly advise all the capacitors get replaced and worth looking into mods.

Games are officially distributed in either HuCard (TurboChiip in US) or CD-ROM format. Hu-cards are region locked, and about 5 are SuperGrafx only but otherwise all Hu-cards play in systems of the correct region. CD-ROM games require system (Hu) cards where the newer cards are backwards compatible with the older less memory system cards (some rare exceptions) in descending order from most newest/memory to least: Arcade CD, Super CD, and (regular) CD-ROM. Systems like the Duo systems and SuperCD-ROM addon already have the Super CD-ROM system card built in and only require an Arcade Card to play Arcade CD-ROM level games.

Succeeded by the PC-FX system which is not backwards compatible and stands on its own.

Ever notice the “layers” never overlap? And if they do it’s just a tiny 8x8 thing like the top of a building or a tip of a mountain? And even then it’s usually when there’s little or no enemy sprites on screen.

By that logic the NES can do scrolling layers too because of Metal Storm or Batman. Maybe the Genesis has “Mode 7” because you saw a scaling skull in Splatterhouse 3?

It was! But the Japanese market at the time seemed to have an appetite for things like this. Right in the middle and slightly after the “bubble economy”. Look at the X68000 and FM Towns. Crazy times that will never come again!

The "layers" never over overlap because there are no layers. Those bits you think do don't. You just don't understand what's happening.

By your logic anything that no one ever said is true because of some ridiculous shit you pulled out of your ass. It must suck to be so butt blasted you have to resort to childlogic.
