Hidden Gems? – PC Engine Games I’ve Never Played

admin336 views



Instead of me telling you about some hidden gems, we go on the journey together with some games I’ve never played before. Will they prove to be worth my time, or are they just internet hype and quickly forgotten? Let’s take a look.

Episode Notes:

1. Games covered:
Genji Tsuushin Agedama
Time Cruise II
Psycho Chaser
Tatsujin
Die Hard
Hana Taka DakaI?
Toilet Kids
Skweek
Cyber Cross
Coryoon

2. I used Magic Engine for this footage. My PC Engine is S-Video modded and I use that on my CRT. I tried that with the Framemeister but it looked pretty bad.

3. The music in the beginning and ending monologues are from Batman for the PC Engine.

4. All these games are on my PC Engine Everdrive and I still had yet to play them.

5. I give the edge for Tatsujin to the Mega Drive. It doesn’t have the bold color of the PC Engine version, but I prefer the addition animations and detail.

I live in japan right now and ive noticed there is a wide acceptance of poop games for kids. Aside from Oshiri tantei (butt detective) ive also seen a touchscreen game at the arcade where a little kid sits on the toilet shooting toilet paper at colorful turds. People love this stuff!

6:09 BRO, I can't believe they actually animated the kid's twig & berries in 'toilet kids'! What were they thinking??😂😂😂
@bobbyo5807 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
This is good to refer to because I have every game made for it and the Turbo Grafx 16 also on retro pie emulation station(mini SNES edition/model).Not to mention many many more on many different retro consoles👍Love it

Was that Bloody Wolf footage there at the end of the video??
@richpope7218 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Hmmm...Ordyne! Not a 10/10 but I'd call it a hidden gem for it's graphics, 2 Player option, and uniqueness.
@musashi5150 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
How about ‘10 more games for the PC Engine I’ve never played’ or for the CD-ROM system?
@martinerms537 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I was chuckling on the Toilet Kids review haha
@dyscotopia April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
It's really impressive what clever coders were able to do with judiciously placed sprites and raster tricks to overcome the single background layer to achieve those parallax effects

How much were PC games back then?
@215Days April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
6:02 this looks like a game that James Rofle would love...To take a dump on it!
@ungabungus01 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Coryoon is really tough? Must be a pro shooter player because I beat it first try no continues, yet a lot of other pce shooters kick my ass like blazing lasers (did eventually beat that tho). Toilet kids I just can't beat either
@kanoamisawa9901 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
The PC engine was absolutely incredible. It came out in 87 and was meant to compete with the nes. It had better graphics than the genesis which came out two years after the turbo graphics and it arguably had better graphics than the snes, look at Rtype vs snes Suoer Rtype and street fighter 2 pc engine looked better. We didn’t get it til years later in the turbo graphics version, of it came out in 87 here it would have taken off and would possibly be around to this day making hardware what a shame it didn’t

Sega cd please
@johnfoster7823 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Atari Lynx... I never had that system and would love to see your no bs approach reviewing the system and some games for it. Love your videos and always put em on at the end of a long day to unwind and see some classic games on systems I grew up with.
@Denathorn April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I love your vids, but the thing I like this more is that you disclose how much the going rate is for a title on the retro market.

I picked up Pacman World in a carboot sale here in the UK for £1, buried in a box, proper mint condition too... Its going for £20-£25 on eBay.

Few more boot sales later... Well, a lot more bootsales later... Castlevania Chronicles cropped up... Tenner... I looked on eBay... Well over £100 last I checked!

I've never had any others, but bought some great "If less worth valuable" titles on the way, but, you never know! ;)

Hence why I like the inclusion of the going rate... You just never know when you might stumble on a bit of a rarity! :)

These are great suggestions, and would love a bunch in this series for the PCE as well as the Dreamcast. I have complete US sets of those, and would love to see good imports that we didn't get here. Keep up the awesome work.
@visionop8 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I would love more episodes like this. I really like discovering games I've never played. I bought a PC Engine and FM Towns II for those purposes specifically and I have nothing but crazy fun when playing those systems. I am really into examining and playing games that I may not have grown up with and are not part of my childhood. To me it's just like buying recent games.
@kumrogames April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Great Video sir!
@dirtface5923 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
the die hard game looked cool
@Fizz826 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I have the second game in this video since 1989 and I’ve never put it in my pc engine...
@pal-of-pals April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I'd love to see more videos on this subject, especially on the PC Engine CD games, there's some highly underrated games there.
@afriend9428 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Xevous is better than Toilet Kidz
@TheKayliedGamerChannel-YouTube April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Hate the term 'hidden gems' ... so reminds me of Metal Jesus Rocks.... not a good thing lol

TurboEverDrive is unfortunately the only way some people can play these on og hardware these days, just too rare and expensive for the likes of 1941 Counter Attack and Soldier Blade etc ...
@ShamanNoodles April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
"Cute em up" hehe
@hotdoggington6962 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I say this as an American who grew up with NES -> SNES/MD -> etc: I would love to see you take on the older PC systems that were more popular in Europe - Commodore 64, Amiga, ZX Spectrum, etc. I don't have any nostalgia for them, but as someone who kept up with EVERYthing on the systems I owned and have watched "hidden gems" videos to death, learning about systems that weren't popular over here is like entering a whole other world.

I love videos from people like Kim Justice, but would really appreciate hearing the thoughts of someone else who has a similar gaming background to myself.

Because who gives a shit what any specific YouTuber personally has nostalgia for? It's like reading the preambles to food recipes where they talk about their Italian grandmas. I care about what tastes good or plays good, not self-absorbed meandering.

Really, who sits there and says "Oh, you played such and such when you were a kid? That's sooo interesting."
@aarongaspar April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Can’t wait to try some of these! You should cover Bloody Wolf for the TG16. Such a great game that deserves a full playthrough. Thanks for all the great content!
@ericlee5581 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Sadly, the TG-16 being such a niche console here in North America, means a lot of games are just overpriced.... =
@matthewmcree1992 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
I've been playing a bunch of emulated games on my retro handheld (there's no way I could afford to amass all these rare games in physical form), and the PC Engine is the console that has grown on me the most by far. There's just something charming about the unique graphical style and sound designs of PC Engine games. I will definitely collect PC Engine games one day when I have actual income.
@dontspamrob April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
How about Mugen Senshi Valis on pc engine cd?
@aljongreat1900 April 29, 2024 - 12:00 pm
Soldier blade was my favorite game on the system .. the pc engine was the gold mine of shmups
