Remembering the games of yesteryear.

I got the TurboGrafx-16 Mini

Postby MrKite » Thu Jun 4, '20, 5:51 pm

It’s the only one of these “mini” consoles I care about being that I already own plenty of games for the real versions of the other ones out there, and that my TG16 game library is very small. I must say I am enjoying it a lot. It’s cool that they also included a bunch of japanese only releases. Although I don’t know what the point was on including Snatcher if they weren’t going to translate it. Because you need japanese reading skill to play the game.

No, I meant the US version has japanese-only titles on it that aren't translated. Some of which are adventure games such as the aforementioned Snatcher.

They probably figured it was better than keeping some titles out like all the other mini consoles did.

Perhaps, but still seems pointless not to translate.

Y I understood it ! No problem about it so it's really frustrating not to be able to understand all those games still only in Japanese !
