Japan's PlayStation Network offering PC Engine games
The Japanese PlayStation Store features a ridiculously huge selection of old PlayStation games, especially compared to the paltry selection on the American store. Now, it's getting old games that weren't even on the PlayStation, in what appears to be a tentative step toward a Sony Virtual Console.Sony announced that four PC Engine (Turbografx-16) games will be available on the Store today: Bomberman '94, New Adventure Island, Sengoku Mahjong, and Devil's Crush, each for 600 yen, roughly the same price these games command on the Wii's Virtual Console.The PC Engine Game Archives will be playable on PSP and PS3, which means we'll be able to take Devil's Crush on the go for the first time since the TurboExpress -- thus elevating the PSP to the best system since the TurboExpress.
The VC Advantage: Shout at the Devil
The Internet has made it easy to find cheats for games, but we miss the tips pages from game magazines, when the discovery of a new code could inspire you to go back to an old game. These codes aren't exactly new, but oldness is the essence of the Virtual Console! We're bringing back the classic codes every week on The VC Advantage.This week's theme is simple: it's Devil's Crush. That's more than enough to sustain its very own VC Advantage, because Devil's Crush is amazing. As far as we're concerned, it's more than enough to sustain its own site. It's definitely our favorite VC download so far (barring new developments like Sin and Punishment). So we thought we would look at some ways to enhance your enjoyment of this absolute masterpiece even further. Sound Test: Sound tests in games are usually no big deal, but Devil's Crush's theme song is so mind-blowingly rokken that we'd be happy to just leave it on for a few hours and turn the TV off. Naxat Soft has anticipated this desire, making the main theme number 01 in their list of sounds. To access the Sound Test, pause the game and then hit select to bring up the high score list. Press up, right, down, left, and then I, and the first high score will be replaced by the sound test.
