    Hi, Hiro
    
    Against, Thank you for your information!
    I can't not buy the PC-ENGINE here in Germany.
    A friend from me visit's Japan for 3 Month and he brought me
    a PC-ENGINE as Gift. It is realy bad that I can't order the 
    Games for the PC-ENGINE from Japan.
    Because NEC-Germany say to me "The PC-ENGINE
    lunch in Germany not earlier as in two years, Sorry..."
    
    Sorry, that I write here in the "Nintendo" notes but I found no
    other conference to inform me over the PC-ENGINE (Software+Hardware).
    
    OK, Hiro thank's for your trouble! ! !

 HI ROY,

THERE ARE MANY EXCELLENT GAME MACHINES IN JAPAN NOW.
NES IS PIONEER IN JAPANESE GAME MACHIN.

ANY WAY, PC-ENGINE IS MADE BY NEC.
IT COSTS 24,800 YEN (PLEASE TRANSFER U.S. $.)
SOFT 4,500 <-> 5,500 YEN. (IT IS AS MUCH AS NES'S.)
ITS SOUND,PICTURE AND MOVEMENT ARE EXCELLENT.

BUT I MUST SAY SEGA'S MEGA DRIVE IS BEST ONE (NOW). CPU:68000(16BIT)!
IT COSTS 21,000 YEN!!! AND I HAVE IT.


I THINK PC-ENGINE WILL BE ON-SALE IN U.S. NEXT YEAR.
MEGA DRIVE WILL,TOO.

I THINK IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PLAY AS ORIGINAL GAME AND SELECT NES, 
PLAY AS ARCADE MACHINE AND SELECT PC OR MEGA.

P.S. I LIKE ALL COMPUTER GAME MACHINES. OF COURSE FAMI-COM!
