It's finally here!Open the overseas version of the "PC Engine Mini" opening report!

 The 8 -bit machine, a PC engine mini -model "PC Engine MINI" released in 1987, will finally be released by Konami Digital Entertainment on March 19.

ついにきた! 海外版もまとめて開けちゃう「PCエンジン mini」開封レポート!

 Like the previous mini models, a total of 58 games (57 overseas versions) are recorded on a small body with a miniature feeling, and it is a part that can be easily played by connecting it to TV and monitors.Same as the mini model.

 By the way, this time, "PC Engine mini" for Japan, "TurboGrafx-16 mini" for North America, and "PC Engine Core Grafx MINI" for Europe."PC Engine mini" includes two limited titles, "Tokimeki Memorial" and "Tenmakai II MARU", but on the other hand, "TurboGrafx-16 mini" and "PC Engine Core Grafx Mini" are included.The "Saraman Snake" is not included.Conversely, the overseas version does not contain "Tokimeki Memorial" and "Tenmakai II MARU MARU" instead of "Saraman Snake", so the title is like a 2: 1 trade.This is the difference between 58 and 57 recorded titles.

 In addition, the attached controller is based on the "PECE engine -only pad" without a firing function, which was included in the first PC engine only for the "PC engine mini".On the other hand, the attached pad of the overseas version is a "turbo pad" with a continuous fire function, which is the controller that was included at the time of the release of each body.

 This time, I was able to borrow 3 products from Konami Digital Entertainment, so in this article, I will summarize the differences in the appearance of these three products and the characteristics of various functions at once.As announced on the special page, the three types of body and peripheral devices have been changed to the shipping and arrival schedule due to the new colon virus infection.Please check this information when purchasing.

3製品を並べてみたところ。「PCエンジン mini」と「PC Engine Core Grafx mini」はサイズがほぼ同一なのに対して「TurboGrafx-16 mini」の倍近い幅の大きさが目立つ。これは元々オリジナルの「TurboGrafx-16」自体の筐体が大型だった事に起因する。オリジナルの上部の出っ張り部分には拡張バスがあり、ここにCD-ROM2などの拡張ユニットが接続できるようになっていた「PCエンジン mini」には連射機能のないPCエンジン用パッドが付属するが、海外版にはどちらも連射機能付きのターボパッドが付属する。これは発売当初に本体に付属していたコントローラーをそのまま再現したからで、海外版のPCエンジンはどちらも国内から2年遅れの1989年にリリースされているため、ターボパッドが標準となっていたのだ
