Do we need to think about preparing for the worst and making a new dedicated PCE forum? If so what are the alternatives...are free forums like forumer.com any good or would it be best to have someone with the resources to host it for us?
You should have had a alternative to pcefx in place a long time ago. Aarons Ad-o-rama.com shouldn't have been the only joint in town. You cant continue to leave all that information gathered on the forum, let alone responsibility to care for it, all in one guys hands and expect it to end well. Especially when he was already contemplating getting out of it prior when he started selling games en masse.
I use Ad Block plus so I never noticed
Hey Guys its me Windy. I have a couple ideas to get us all back up and runnin. SunTeam_Paul I think you have the premier website for PCE/TG16 if you put up a messageboard and shoutbox a bunch of great recources would be right at our fingertips. The switch would be minimal if your interested in this. Also this could be done at The Brothers DuoMazov if They were interested in hosting such a site. I have put up a temporary shoutbox at the hupack come on over and chat with us http://hupack.blogspot.com/
Man, I'm so bummed about that. Let me know if there's any I can do to help get something up and running again!
PC-Engine Hell, what are you even talking about? You seem disproportionately upset over the simple fact of a website having ads.

Thats actually a small matter, and no, I'm not irked about it, its just stupid to think the guy needs donations to keep the place going, because he doesn't, and you are all ignoring the obvious if you think he does. Aaron has been disengaged from that forum since the last Bush was in office, and he has done little to update his website with any new content. He clearly doesn't care about maintaining the forum anymore, other then if it brings him some kind of steady revenue, if even then.
He tried to hint at getting out of it all before he started his game sales, but evidently all that hinting fell on mostly deaf ears. Its not like he owes anyone anything, and he shouldn't be pressured, maneuvered, or guilted into keeping it going. It would probably be best to leave him alone, let him get out gracefully, and get a new forum or two started on your own. Communities don't die when the mayors term is up, they get a new mayor. In your case, get a new forum most of you can agree on.
Damn! I just got a slightly-broken PC Engine DUO - I was going to be using their info to troubleshoot it...
Does anyone have the full capacitor replacement chart (I believe there was a picture with a list?) for Turbo-Duo/PC Engine Duo around?
It's troubling to lose this kind of information.
You should contact chops/jetblue. If hes not on here, then he can be located on the Neo forums Im sure.
First of all, he's not exactly rolling in dough just because there's some ads on his site. Believe it or not, ads don't necessarily bring in money. Also, isn't nectarsis awfully close to the site's owner? I'm sure he wouldn't come here and ask for donations if there was reason to believe nothing would come out of it.
And it doesn't surprise me that he's done little updating--its a forum/website dedicated to systems over a decade old! Except for announcing something new in the indie scene there might not be much to say.
Really, this all sounds like speculation on your part, and you seem to really dislike PC Engine FX for some reason.
Byron isn't that close to Aaron at all lol. Aaron made his intentions obvious for a long while for anyone who cared to pay attention to them. Aaron isnt hurting for cash. He is in a pretty decent line of work actually. Instead of doing updates to the site, or logging in to visit with the forum members, he spends his time on his video projects for youtube, astronomy, and whatever IRL issues he has now, or what else interest him. Can anyone blame him, no. Its natural to lose interest with time, and even more so when it becomes a burden or hassle. All you have done is speculate. Try talking like someone who had been on the forum for years, not seconds. Thanks brah.
There was some gore scenes removed from the US laserdisc and VHS release. They are present on the US dvd though, but as I said, the aspect ratio on the US dvd is not the original one. On the german side of things, Laser Paradise and a couple other companies kinda took the cult horror stuff seriously, so they released pretty solid versions of Hardware, Dellamorte Dellamore, RawHead Rex, etc.
