Has anyone ever tried contacting Hudson or Falcom directly, so see if there ever was a Turbo/PCE version in the works? I've heard rumors of a prototype, but I have yet to see any evidence.

While PSG is what's mostly used, there are tons of games for the Turbo that use PCM as well, usually for sound effects, like screams, fire, water, stuff like that. It's also used for cinemas in the later games(most earlier games used redbook with cinemas, taking up an ENORMOUS amount of potential data). And I think there are even some Hucard games that have PCM music, instead of PSG, the first one that comes to mind, is Fighting Run, though it might be a combination of PSG & PCM. Another one is Batman.
Granted, I know nothing about how these actually work, so in a way, I'm talking out of my arse, but I just wanted to state that I do know, that the Turbo does use PCM, it's just not it's normal format by any means.
But, either way, it would take ALOT for the Turbo to look as good as the SFC version, I just don't think it could be done. Though the new developers have recently discovered techniques on the Turbo, not formally known, I'm really not sure how close to the SFC version it could get.
I mean, we're not talking about Street Fighter 2 here, where it has a small level with 2 characters jumping around, Ys 5 is big levels, with quite a bit going on.

It's fun I suppose, but, I personally like it less then Wanderers, with with Mask of the Sun being under it, as me least favorite. Even still, I'm waiting for someone to realease a patch. Who are you? Why are you stealing usernames?  BAN GUESTS! BAN GUESTS!! Just kidding!  |

I doubt there was ever a PC Engine version, by the way. If there had been, it would've been handled by Hudson. And we would've heard something about a PC-8801/9801 version, because until pretty recently, those were always the platforms that Falcom coded on. YsIV was originally made on/for PC-8801 (by Falcom themselves), but it was never released. At least - so I've heard. Brandish VE was proboably their last PC-9801 game (1997). |

I'm surprised the original version of Ys 4 has never leaked anywhere, or, atleast I haven't heard of it leaking.
