A lament

Postby MrKite » Tue Feb 25, '20, 9:06 pm

So I have both the TurboGrafx-16 Mini and the Evercade on preorder, and that being said, I recently found a Sega CD reproduction that is a compilation of the english translations of the Phantasy Star II text adventures and I feel tempted to buy it when I get paid this Friday, because I am worried they will be sold out by the time I am ready to buy it and/or the place selling it will closed down, BUT I am also worried I won’t have any money for the two items I already have preordered if I decide to buy it. And I never tried the PSII test adventures before, but the fact that I have a chance to play translated versions of them on actual hardware by getting this is so tempting. I don’t know what to do!

Well I heard that the TG16 Mini was delayed because of the Coronavirus even though Amazon still says it is coming on March 19th as originally scheduled, so I decided to cancel my preorder for the power adapter and buy the PSII text adventure compilation. I never played any of these before.

I hope so. It cost $30 for the whole set (that total includes shipping) so I hope I won’t be disappointed. I haven’t used the Sega CD in a while either so I hope it will still work.

Mr. Kite, if I may ask you, do you recall where you came across the Sega CD repro for the text adventures? I am also interested in this and would like to peruse the site(s) you found this.
