Hi all-
I'm 31, work in the US Army. From Wyoming and Idaho originally, I've lived in Argentina for 2 years and Germany for almost 4. (Mannheim.) Now I'm in Maryland, close to Washington, DC.
I am one of the few that owned a Turbografx-16- I bought it in high school and had 5 controllers, 2 bonk games, Bomberman, Blazing Lazers, and others.
I always lusted after the CD attachment and the T-Express, but never got around to getting them.
Then I gave my system away to my cousin, and haven't seen it since.
He still has it supposedly, but he's in Idaho, and I haven't been back that way for a while.
This year started a resurrection of T-16 stuff for me when jsut on a whim I looked it up on Ebay, then google. I've paid for Magic Engine and downloaded my favorite roms, but it's just not the same.
I always was curious about Ys and am now even more curious- I HAVE TO PLAY the original!!
Maybe next tax refund I'll get a Duo or T-16 w/ cd, but does Ys run on a PC Cd-rom w/ magic engine?
Anyways, my time gets pretty sparse sometimes, I'll check in once in a while, but mostly lurk for info...
ps- My sig is from the car I bought in Germany, the Ford Taurus "Super High Output", SHO. For a 1991, it sure cruised- sunroof, power everything, and 140mph.
