This system kicks ass, been playing Dracula X, and Bonks Revenge, and Lords of Thunder all day....brings a tear to one's eye. I pre-ordered Lords of Thunder [one of the first games i ever pre-prdered. Remember getting it as though it were yesterday.] Also got the promo video they made you could send off for that had the shitty "street team" talking to people in game stores and stuff. Good times, good times... :crying:

I just picked up Dungeon Explorer 2 at CGE over the weekend.
What a game, what a system. :drool:

CarlDMC · Aug 24, 2004

I love my Duo as well. I will never sell that bad boy. Bomberman '93 is the best party game ever on that system.

pixeljunkie · Aug 24, 2004

Don't even get me started on Y's I & II :buttrock:

Baseley09 · Aug 24, 2004

in high school, would listen to that game in the car. I can still dig on the soundtrack for that game. Cheesy? yeah, i dig the tune for the final boss battle though. Only track i hate is the ballad one for the end credits. Still, not as bad as the Riot Zone soundtrack.

Disconnected · Aug 24, 2004

I should hook mine back up mine up and play some Lords of Thunder and Ys. One of the best consoles ever made.

showdownfan666 · Aug 24, 2004

I love my Duo I play Y's and Lords of Thunder all the time. It's in my top 3 systems of all time.

RabbitTroop · Aug 24, 2004

I had the same setup, with a Super System 3.0 card, which i got for Gate of Thunder.

Dallas_Five · Aug 24, 2004

i have to admit, i've been playing my duo way more than my neo lately.

i just got Spriggan and i'm really enjoying it. I need a joystick though.

Tron · Aug 25, 2004

I just got back into the whole scene last year. I just have a CoreGrafix with the Super-Cdrom2. I'm hopeing day one i can get a, TG16 agian. Just for my domestic hucards. Has any body played Kaze Kiri ? I should be geting that game soon.

Rassilon · Aug 25, 2004

Indeed. The duo is a wonderful machine. So many great games, its a shame it didnt do better in the US. I usually rank it in my top 3, along with Genesis and neo-geo.
Too many great games. Military madness, silent debuggers, tons of RPGs and shooters.

Its often hard to avoid the temptation to get another one here, as mine is in storage in the US.

Atro · Aug 25, 2004

Damn !

My PCE Duo doesn't boot up.

Some moron has plugged a PSU with a diferent polarity. Is it repairable ?

yeah, i picked up a copy a couple of months ago from Neo Bomberman.

It's a really fun game, especially if you like Shinobi or ninja games in general. Kaze is one of the best animated sprites in a non-fighter, the BGs and music are beautiful, the AI is pretty good in that enemies actually block attacks which can make fighting pretty intense, and the bosses and some enemies (kite ninjas rule) are really cool. The only negative i can think of is that the game can be sorta repetitive, with every level being basically the same thing: move back and forth on one plane, killing enough enemies to trigger the boss battle. Still though, the amount of moves you have at your disposal, the fluid control, and the overall high production value overshadow any slight problems the game has.

Tron · Aug 25, 2004

That's good too hear given it's price. For what it go's for these days. I just wounder if it was over hype or not that's all. Good to hear i'll fun have with Kaze Kiri then. :buttrock:

terry.330 · Aug 25, 2004

Hell yeah I love the Duo and PCE, I just ordered Sylphia from NBM

and I was playing Cotton this weekend.

Chicago Cheeseburgler Crew · Aug 25, 2004

Go get Sapphire and an Arcade Card. Fucking do it.

dakingofzumunda · Aug 26, 2004

I've just recently gotten into the whole NEC gaming scene with my Core & SCD2.

I've been playing lots of, Gates of Thunder, and absolutely LOVE it! I'm a BIG ThunderForce guy too. Gates of Thunder, has definitely turned my head away from the TF series as of late. I like jamming to the first stage music in the game.

I LOVE the tracks on Gate and hearing that Lords has an even better soundtrack, really wants me to get the game.

I still have yet to play Lords of Thunder. Guess that will be in my pick-up list soon.

LOT has a more metal soundtrack to it. I like the track for the fire stage.

One thing strange about LOT is that the character's vulnerable area includes the sword, but the back half doesn't take damage.

For me, I would have to pick GOT over LOT. The music seems more fitting and space ship themed shooters seem more proper than character shooters (LOT, Cotton, Sylphia...) Both are GREAT games though.

Anyone care to educate me?
