The NEC PC Engine is a games console that most agree has an great library of games and is well worth exploring, but what was the best way to enjoy the system? Today we look at a very special version of the system that aims to deliver just that, but it comes at a price.

@@MightyistheRCGamer what is your problem man? Why are you calling someone out over something so trivial. Sure most people didn't have any inkling of what a turbo grafx-16 was in the nineties but they were out there and they even advertised. I remember TV commercials, and I have a bunch of old DC comics from the 90s that have ads for the system on their back covers. Just because you think someone has never experienced something doesn't make it so. Heck the big reason so few did is because of the Nintendo stranglehold on gaming back then.

Great video, and really nice filming of all those screens. Love Julian Rignall too, although I think he meant 25fps for PAL, not 24. The whole refresh rate thing and shutter speeds is still an issue when filming anything with a screen, like a phone or tablet. And some of the screens we have in our phones can refresh at unexpected rates. As a UK RU-vidr, I generally film in 25p with a shutter speed of 1/50, to keep the 180 degree rule. But my Galaxy S20 screen refreshes at non PAL rates, so if I film it at 1/50, I get flicker. But if you adjust your shutter speed in 1/3 EV intervals either way, you're often able to reduce or eliminate flicker. For my phone screen, I find a filming shutter of 1/40 successfully eliminates flicker while crucially still being faster than the actual capture frame rate. Of course I could alternatively just make an internal screen recording, but I often like to see the actual phone and fingers in the video! Same technique can be used for pesky LED lighting, which is often at 60hz, even sold in the UK. So if your lighting is flickering in videos, just try adjusting your filming shutter speed a little.

Interesting to remember the economic climate in Japan at the time which allowed such high end luxury tech like this to find a market..in the 1980s Japan was at the height of its economic power, with a booming domestic economy and soaring exports. Even the Americans were worried that Japan would overtake them as the Worlds top economy. Even reflected in the movies as well such as Die Hard.

I got one from the Virgin megastore in 1988. It was a Japanese console modded with a scart cable and a UK power supply. It cost £225 with a bundled rpg that was totally unplayable due to it being in Japanese (pretty sneaky as they probably couldnt sell the game separately due to the language barrier so they offloaded it as a free game with the console). I bought a load of games with it, Bloody Wolf was the best of the bunch, spent hours playing that one. The store had a display with a bunch of games and systems, I wonder where they got them from?

Sometimes they'd pause the game to take the shots without the motion blur. This wasn't possible for the arcade games though, so you'd get the blur like your E. Honda showed. I quite like the effect, it reminds me of seeing a hot new arcade game that I couldn't wait to find one day in person 🤣

Two things about screenshotting in the old days come to mind: it must have been very tedious to fill a whole film of scenes from a game just to find out later after development that the best scenes are unusable because the action you wanted to show was to fast for your shutter speed. Then second thing: I would have taken a broadcasting screen, because it often has quite a flat crt and has a button for underscan - both of which reduce the problem of cushion distortion. I guess many publications in the 90s also had early "screen printers" that could freeze a frame as well.

The intro gets me every time. So much respect for the work and dedication with the museum and the attention to detail. Surprised at the ever growing collection of Japanese Exotics you have amassed. I want to get a PCE-CD/Sharp X68k/PC9801/FM Towns before I die. I've emulated for so long I'm kinda used to emulation quirks. Especially with the X68k emulation. I'd love to see the differences between the real and the emulated. All the best. Amazing work.

All-in-one units were very popular in the mid-90s. I used to sell computers for a (now defunct) major electronics retailer in Western Canada in 94-95 and among the brand-new Pentium class machines that were coming out, Compaq sold a low-powered 486SX-33 based all-in-one unit that included a VCR and sharp quality playback on it's monitor. I sold SO many of those units by running a 'Beyond the Mind's Eye' VHS tape displaying eye-catching CGI art and music projects created with supercomputers. I never directly told anyone that the PC was displaying this awesomeness on it's own hardware, was honest that it was a videotape to all that asked, but MAN did I sell a ton of those Compaqs. I even came in 2nd place in all of Canada in a contest selling them over December one year. Got a $500 prize (about 2 grand today) and JUST missed winning my own PC of the same model. (I still think the store in Calgary 'fed' all their sales to one guy. grrrr.)

I still can’t believe that the PC Engine basically used a 6502 (HuC6280) because it looked and scrolled like a 16 bit machine of the time. It’s shows that 8 bit, with the right hardware, you could achieve miracles.

This almost certainly existed as one of NEC's attempts to get their computer lines and the then-new PC Engine game console to complement each other. A prospective NEC computer owner(be it the PC-88 or PC-98 line) could pay a little more for a nicer monitor and gain the ability to play PC Engine games for no additional space(and space was always a premium in japanese residences). Rather than being "that one weird TurboGrafX with a built-in monitor", it is "that one weird computer monitor with a built-in TurboGrafX". The CD-ROM drive was like that too, with an adapter to interface the PC Engine's removable drive to a PC-88 computer. And the final machine in the line, the PC-8801MC, integrated said adapter into the machine. It is a real pity there's no way to interface the CD-ROM to the KD863G, it'd make for an amazing little all-NEC gaming station paired with one of their computers.

I still play on pc engine, or coregrafx mini, some great games which I’m finally able to finish using infinite continues. That missing front cover you could perhaps 3d print it one day.

Had no idea that TV/CD-i combo existed! Such an odd CD drive, too.
