Yeah I thought that too! mmmm pitstop 2 . . . :)

The 3rd game is some sort of baseball game - very good tbh! :)

The 5th game is a young lady fighting things . . . bit like double dragon/kung fu master but with much bigger graphics! :)

Andy

ps Very impressed though - Dragon Spirit is superb!

I remember R-Type was 'the' shooter to have and had to be on a PC Engine, spawned so many clones.

Nice find Andy  ;D

Picture 3 is World Stadium '91
Picture 5 is Wonder Momo (bloody awful game!)

I'm going to be listing a load of PCE games (boxed and unboxed) on Ebay soon, including a boxed R-Type. I may be persuaded to sell that outside of Ebay if you want to make a fair offer... ;)

I'm also donating 6 boxed Hucards to the charity auction at Byte Back. Nothing exceptional but it will be a nice bundle that you may get on the cheap....

Oh, and for reviews/pics of all PCE game have a look at the excellent www.pcengine.co.uk

Nor do I really... You could have a look at Ebay completed listings. Alternatively if I list it on Ebay I'll probably start it at £2.50 so you could get it for as little as that depending on the competition! ;)

Trust me, I wouldn't be offended! I can't view Ebay at work so can't see what that one didn't sell for... ;)

I'll let you know when all the Hucards go on Ebay and you may see a few others that interest you. Anything you win I'll knock 10% off for cash at Byte Back (saves me Paypal fees and a trip to the Post Office!)
