So good SmokeMonster!
Damn, I say this every single time about I talk about this system... I step on this forum and my PC engine hype to get one increases by 100000000
I got saved $200 and I want to get enough for a system + everdrive... unfortunately all the Duo systems I find (ebay mostly) are super overpriced......
That little screen I mentioned above isn't compatible so far with the Pc Engine or 1/2 the stuff I plug into it.
The screen rolls and the colors are off.
I bought a PC engine duo from eBay, it was one that didn't have any sound.
It just needed new caps.
I think my total price was $160 shipping included.
Got it from hit-japan
This one works quite nicely
Though the price has gone up a bit since I got mine, it's still a great screen.

Anywayss, besides ebay or yahoo auctions, where do you guys look for PC Engine systems?

The PC engine Facebook page is a good place
Ah Woody, I reached that site surfing on google looking for a nice PC Engine community, anyways seems the forum account has to be approved and mine is pending (or unaproved, don't know... never received activation)
Check the forums on http://pcenginefx.com. There's a couple guys on there who fix up systems (i.e. recap, replace gears, etc). and sell them at a fair price.
Hi Woody!
I have been surfing the forum for few days and ended up talking to someone who seems to be selling systems usually, told me he has some stuff for sale and asked me what system was the one I was looking for, let's see if I got a pm back during the following days, would be great to be a PCE user after all the waiting haha.
At this moment I want to do on thas forum what is is always encouraged to do here, be part of the community instead of just snip a sale and then disappear (umm, not sure if I did write this properly... english sometimes is a bit difficult to write). So I will try to take part of their conversations and such.
Late last year I got a Briefcase unit and an Everdrive and have played a ton of the HuCard games. I've looked at a few of the CD games, mainly ones I knew about, but was wanting some suggestions. I really liked the CD version of Valis 1 and 3. The HuCard games Legendary Axe 1 and 2 I really liked, too. What would be some other CD games to try along those lines? (I had Rondo of Blood on my Wii when it came out for Virtual console so I've beaten that one several times)

Edit: Oh yeah... I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a joke, but I actually did enjoy Wonder Momo quite a bit...
Maybe I should contact Retrogate, been well over a month now. Faq says it should take 15-20 days.
Tracking says We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece. and nothing else. Tried that Ukrainian post page, its all chicken scratch to me.
Edit, item has shown up in the states now.....cool
Now I've kinda cooled on the Pc Engine. The cd players broke and I can't fix it, I sold the couple games it came with for a few dollars (maybe I should've waited). It came with a Japanese baseball game and Toyshop boys. So I've had nothing to play on it for a few months now.
I tried to email the mod linked with registration @ pcfx. Now it looks like the registrations expired, so I'll have to do the whole thing over again.
