First time starting up my PC Engine Duo and it works perfectly! Also I was able to capture gameplay footage through the!:D Yay! Akumajou Dracula X Chi no Rondo. That’s what I’ve been playing tonight, and damn this game is good!!:D I recorded a movie of the intro, it’s awesome! There’s a German voiceover, which made me think I had bought the wrong game. Then I realized it was only released in Japan and seeing the japanese subtitles made me come to my senses and understand that this was the way it was supposed to be.

Reviewing the import Castlevania classic, Dracula X: Rondo of Blood for the PC Engine CD! KS on Twitter - KS on Instagram.

Good thing for me though, since I can’t read kanji fluently but I can understand German!:D Great intro ^_^ watch it >> The graphics were stunning, you can really tell that they used the full potential of Super CD-ROM!;D It’s a big difference from the HU-card games. You control Richter Belmont, and he has a whip just like Simon and the others, and you collect hearts to use your special weapons, like the knife, axe, holy water etc.

The first boss was a fire breathing flying purple dragon-thingy, a step up from the bat ^_^ You still collect orbs after each boss battle at the end of the stage like in the first game: The second stage was extremely similar to the first stage of the first Castlevania game! You fought ghouls and you were inside the castle and it looked the same! Just better graphics;D All of a sudden though I got chased by this giant beast! That freaked me out. But I got away, and looked back to find that the giant beast had run into a wall. And lost his head!!?

Lol, he must have been running really fast for that to happen! The second boss was a pain in the ass. I was stuck there for a while, even had to use a continue >-_. I love Richter, but playing as Maria makes the game a bit more enjoyable at times, considering her ability to double-jump, and thus be able to CONTROL yourself in mid-air! My only two grips related to this game at all, are: 1.

CD music aside, I really don’t see how Konami couldn’t have given the SNES a direct port of this game, instead of the watered down “meh” that was “Dracula X”. It’s basically the same gamebut not. They were really lazy about that. And speaking of lazy, while I was stoked that they finally released Rondo of Blood on the Wii’s Virtual Console service, I was at the same time immediately disappointed that they didn’t bother translating it at all. Why this bothers me, is because they took the time to translate (to my knowledge) the original version of the game that you can unlock in the PSP remake, so why they couldn’t have just used that, who the hell knows.

Kinda the same as “why haven’t they released Bloodlines for Genesis on VC?” But I digress. Great game, and it led to even greater things with it’s sequel, Symphony of the Night. Though, on a personal note, my favorite CV game will always be Super CV IV on SNES. Gameplay, music, graphics, controls.that shit is timeless.:-).

This is a short guide compiled from my journey to get TG16 CD to work, specifically with the games in the title, but should also work for all. • Place syscard3.pce in both the /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS and the /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pcengine • Make sure syscard3.pce is all lower case, including the pce. • Make sure you have the right BIOS file. The wiki above has the has file for the most popular syscard3.pce files.

Mine is the USA, and for reference it came to about 143kb. To compare the hash on Windows, right click > CRC SHA > CRC32. • The ROM should have a BIN and CUE file. Rename them to something simple, like dx.bin and dx.cue for Dracula X. All characters should be lower case. If you have multiple BIN files, you need to recompile with imgburn or get another ROM.

The bin and cue files have to have the same name. • I have tried this with an ISO file recently, and it seemed to work fine. Others have had problems with translated games, but mine worked fine. Post or PM me with anything you think could be added. One thing I am not clear on is if the PC Engine CD comes standard with the basic install or if you have to install any additional packages for it to work properly.

I already had all of the packages, so I wasn't sure.
