Recapped the #turbografx16. On the PAL TG16 I destroyed a few pads. Most caps are connected on the top on one side. So it is better to heat the pad topside and remove it. Also make sure to suck out the solder on those ads before putting new ones. Will make it easier. #pcengine #PCエンジン
Capmapped (will be submitting this word to Meriam Webster's new words of the year!) the NEC TurboGrafx-16. Will be recapping this one next. #retrorevival #pcengine #turbografx16

Gunhed or Blazing Lazers?
This iconic shooter was developed by Compile and released for the PC Engine / TurboGrafx in 1989…

Last Time on Emerald Dragon
Prince Haslam has been freed from the Orb, so now we're heading to the Infernum. But first, through the Cave of Ruin.
Think level 90 is too high?

Just dropped: Jaseiken Necromancer OST (composed by Jun Chikuma of Bomberman/Faxanadu/Etc fame), the very first RPG for PC Engine and a doozy with its H.R. Giger cover and horror aesthetics (blood spraying out of enemies) #pcengine www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvgp...
Never seen something like this before. IC102 has a plastic metal shield thing? U populate I pads. 23C1000 mask rom, uPD65006 CMOS gate array (?) and space for an Als245 for mapper logic? #pcengine #PCエンジン #turbografx16
I think I read somewhere that the boards between the US and PAL #turbografx16 were quite similar with so.e small differences. But these look quite different, unless they were talking about the shape... #pcengine #PCエンジン
Opened up the US #turbografx16, the inside of the shell looks a lot more polished compared to the PAL version. #pcengine #PCエンジン
Updated the cap map, v1.1 now. Forgot to add the cap numbers of the two lower caps and there was one more sneaky hidden cap on the little power socket PCB. Also changed the color of 1 cap because it was too similar to another. #pcengine #turbografx16 #tg16 #PCエンジン
My mother always said too much TV was bad for me, but all those McGuyver episodes taught me a lot! It's working. Took a #pcengine Duo cable, put it in a loose DIN socket and then used alligator clip cables to connect ground and composite et voila! Don't judge my table. Order in chaos. #PCエンジン
Finished recapping, but made 2 mistakes. 1. I didn't test if it was actually working before recapping so I have no idea if the thing even worked before. 2. I don't have a power supply or AV cable... #pcengine #PCエンジン
Kinda tempted to pick up the re-release of City Hunter… The PC Engine adaptation was originally released way back in 1990.

This preview is also calling out the same 3D effect but also how the girl is cute...and they are looking forward to it, and all the different golf games have different appeal points
"The shot you are taking is in 3D"
Article mentions how the physics is calculated in 3D, and it is supposed to be like you are watching golf on TV
For the golf game afficionados here are three previews of the mysterious "3D golf" NEC Avenue game, none of them actually calling it 3D Golf...one Japanese blog thinks it was cancelled because there were already a bunch of other golf games coming out (which was true). #pcengine
Emerald Dragon - A Friend Lost to the Hellions
Emerald Dragon is longer than I thought....but it's an RPG so I don't know where I got that stupid idea.
Anyway, another cinematic screenshot. This game gets rather dark, doesn't it? Combat is simple, but the story is keeping me.

I've updated my list of games I'd love to see in the second Bomberman collection, I totally left out Pocket Bomberman lol. Still take these in to consideration @redartgames.bsky.social @konamina.bsky.social for the next collection.

Some time later... Well, here she is. Might as well make a cap map and recap it. Anyone notice any differences from the US board, apart from the crystals? Maybe I should NTSC-ify it... #pcengine #PCエンジン #turbografx16
Last time on Emerald Dragon
We found the Avesta in the Cave of Jelmethe and now must bring it to Ostracon at Fort Mithramihr to rescue Prince Haslam. Obvious trap is obvious.

And now for something no one has ever seen before...
You can also see it as US, Asia and Euroland all together having the best time and getting along. But with Asia on top of course :) #pcengine #PCエンジン
Some side-by-side shots of the PAL TurboGrafx and the US #turbografx16. Not much difference. Physically only AV/RF port part is different. Then of course the colour, painted accents and sticker(s). #pcengine #PCエンジン
The casing looks a bit off, like not completely injection molded. I have never seen this before. Almost looks like it was injection molded and the slits were actually open and they smeared stuff on to close them because they didn't need the extra airflow... #pcengine #turbografx16 #PCエンジン
I thought I'd open her up to have a quick look inside at the PCB, but the shield is soldered on. So no quick look. AV port is not the same as on the Core Grafx'es. Never opened up my #turbografx16, so would now know if anything is different. #pcengine #PCエンジン
Made in Taiwan. Quality product (I hope). I really like the back cover, makes it look much better than the US #turbografx16, unless it also had a cover, I never had one on mine... I like the grey over the black, but young me would probably have gone for black. #pcengine #PCエンジン
Finally got a Euro TurboGrafx! Wanted one for a long time but pricey and not readily available. But then on Vinted where I am selling some of my stuff a few were being offered. This one was cheaper and even in box, no psu and a cable though, probably why. #pcengine #PCエンジン #turbografx16
