Awesome!

Great reviews. Really enjoyed reading them. Was good to finally see your opinion on Spriggan. I really enjoyed that game and the power up system is great. Also, Parasol Stars is another fun game on the system. You can actually play the second Bubble Bobble game (Rainbow Island) on the PC Engine as well. It is a cd game and is pretty good as well (thus it works on a US Turbografx). The game was ported to the NES as well but the PC Engine version is the best of the versions. You can even save your place so you can keep your high scores and collect all the items.

I remember totally being disappointed with jack Nicklaus golf. It totally sucks. In fact I never forgave jack for it. To this day if I get in a conversation about golf and jack Nicklaus gets mentioned I'll bad mouth him and say what a lousy game he endorsed. F grade all the way.

I love parasol stars. It's most fun with a buddy, but single player is still great. I'd give it an A grade. I thought it was a CD game though?

Never played the last one.

Oddly, Parasol Stars is an HU Card game but the prequel (Rainbow Island) is a CD Rom.

It's been many years since I've had a tg16. After thinking about it I remember now that parasol stars was a hu card.
