Hi. I saw a picture of the PC Boy a while back, and it's got nothing
to do with the PC Engine(if we're thinking of the same item).
According to what I was told, it's a development item from China Coach
Ltd(the ones who brought us numerous badly constructed backup tools in
the mid ninties); and was a combination of a famicom and a PC, with
the ability to save famicom games to 3.5 disk... Not the coolest
thing in the world, but when GameChoiceClub was selling it, they
thought it was worth about $250(or more, I'm not too sure). Well, I
hope that helps. You might contact them if you want some pictures, as
they may still have those! Their website is at www.gamechoice.com.hk
