Could this in theory emulate the pc engine cd and all those hu cards/ add ons to have all the games?

what is the likelihood this has shooters as over 50% of the lineup? Blazing lasers, star soldier, r type, air zonk, super air zonk, gates of thunder, lords of thunder, ordyne, etc. the list goes on and on.

This is fantastic news, had no idea anybody would be interested in bringing this back. Can't wait to hear more.

R-Type is there, Konami owns the Zonk, Parodius, Gradius games. Same with Gates/Lords of thunder but they may have to work out a deal on those.

I'm not expecting the Spriggan games. For the Gunhead series maybe?

The truth? It was all about Nintendo/Sega back then. To be clear not saying it's a bad system or bad games on it but didn't know anyone that wanted/had one.

That doesn't make Dreamcast bad.

This system was very successful in Japan and had a ton of first party support. Definitely one of my favorite consoles. In my top 10.

My friends had a TG16 and I was so damn jealous. Always wanted one but never got one so if reasonable I will for sure buy one.

Also, how the hell is Keith Courage and Bonk's Adventure not two of the initial games? Weird since those two games sort of defined the system...in the US at least.

The PCE CD was just a storage device to hold large games. The CD Unit itself didn't provide any hardware upgrades at all.

So including CDs is just a question of space more than emulation power.

Keith courage better not even be included. Don't make the sega mistake and include terrible games

I love it, I'll get it!

But... I'm really missing the Wii VC. >_> The Switch should have been the chosen one, all our classics under one TV/handheld banner. The NES Classic succeeding so much really changed things.
