Have you noticed that the PC Engine has a lot of shooters? I mean *a lot* of shooters? Aero Blasters is one of them. Also, one of the best of them and when you consider how many shooters the PC Engine has, being among the best is saying something.

Kattobi! Takuhai-kun is a unique PC Engine game all about delivering packages around the world.

Also blowing up cars by dropping bombs off the back of your motorcycle and getting away with violating traffic laws.

New Year, so wanted to do a little pixel `warm up` to kick things off.

Over on the HuCC Development Chat discord ( discord.gg/buuBXJva ) - Fabio has been doing a port of Black Tiger to SuperGrafx.

The PCE colour palette is a tad limited compared to the arcade, so I wondered what could be done...

Dekoboku Densetsu for the PC Engine is a game about racing small cars through weird landscapes and having to keep your car in the pack.

It is also a shockingly bad game that somehow gets just about everything wrong.

Around 1990, every single video game publisher in Japan had to make a baseball game. Naxat Stadium is Naxat's obligatory entry in the genre which does little new and feels like it exists mainly because everyone else was making baseball games at the time.

Ryuukyuu for the PC Engine is one of many puzzle games about dropping things into a well that followed in the wake of Tetris. Here you're selecting cards and trying to build poker hands as you pile things up.

I’m not a shmup guy at all but I do have fond childhood memories of going down to the local ice cream shop and playing on their Rabbit Punch arcade cabinet.
The PC Engine's shoot-'em-up library is vast and even has enough room to include a punching rabbit in Rabio Lepus Special.

The PC Engine's Cyber Knight is a different kind of RPG than people were seeing on consoles in 1990. Compile was pulling in a lot of things from table top and computer RPGs that console RPG developers weren't touching on quite yet...

The artwork of #ShinMegamiTensei used for advertising the #NEC #PCEngine CD release in Japan. Removed text/logos, adding a missing bit at the bottom, applying the usual upscale/clean/retouch process. No clue on the artist, any info let me know!

Several months ago, I designed a FRAM board for the PCE Shuttle Backup Memory Unit, and a friend tested it.

Period.

End of story.

Okay, it also has a license from Japan's professional league which was uncommon at that point...
