I know where you're coming from ... I was very interested in the PC-FX
when it came on (32-bit Turbo!?! Heck yeah!), but my interest dropped
when the games came up lacking in genres that can be played without
understanding Japanese (shoot-em-ups, action side-scroller,
action-RPGs).
I still wouldn't say "no" if one came around at the right price at the
right time, but I've also got a SuperGrafx (also obtained pre-Ebay -
I'd shake my cane too if I could remember where it is) to fill that
released-only-in-Japan console itch. I've got all the games for it
except for Darius Alpha, and I'm only half-convinced that that game (1)
is obtainable and (2) is enhanced by the SuperGrafx hardware.
Still, considering that the SuperGrafx only had 5 specific games
released for it, I suppose one could argue that a PC-FX would be worth
picking up if I could get 5 good games for it. Let us know how you end
up with the cheap E-bay games. :-)
