Let me introduce the PC Engine GT, a game console that was released one year after the Game Boy. Its performance was so impressive that it cost nearly six times more than the Game Boy. What’s amazing is that it had the same specs as the home console PC...

The very first CD-ROM game console was the PC Engine. It’s actually an 8-bit system that came out before the 16-bit consoles like the Super Famicom and the Mega Drive. But thanks to the huge storage capacity of CDs, it offered impressive graphics and CD-quality sound.

Let me introduce “Kung Fu”, one of the early titles for the PC Engine. It was a launch title for the system and was promoted for its impressively large character sprites. Back then, it was hard to achieve this level of impact and visual power on an 8-bit console.

In the late 1980s, South Korea saw the release of its first console game system, the Daewoo Zemmix. A game called Super Boy, which was a copy of Super Mario, was released for this system. (1/2)

In Korea, this console was much more familiar under the name Game Boy rather than Sega Master System. 👌 A kid from the house next door had one, and it had a charm that was quite different from the Zemmix. Original titles like My hero and Alex Kidd were great, but... (1/2)

The PC Engine was so expensive in the late ’80s and early ’90s that it was hard to find even in the homes of well-off friends. On top of that, it had one of the first CD-ROM add-ons, which made it feel incredibly high-tech at the time. Because of its larger storage capacity, many arcade games were ported to it, and the CD-quality audio was absolutely amazing. The real issue, though, was the price. You had to buy everything separately—the PC Engine itself, the CD interface (docking unit), the CD-ROM drive, the system card, and the game CDs.

There are probably a lot of old gamers who still remember the Game Boy Advance. That little device was actually more powerful than the Super Famicom. At a time when the console market had fully shifted to 3D, the Game Boy Advance reminded everyone just how great 2D games could be

NEC, the company behind the PC Engine, was well known for creating cutting-edge devices. From the first CD-ROM game system to portable LCD monitors, they released products that drove gamers crazy. Even after nearly 35 years, the hardware still feels premium.

When you look at games on the PC Engine and Neo Geo—arguably the most powerful 8-bit and 16-bit consoles—it can honestly feel overwhelming. Fatal Fury Special was ported to the PC Engine CD, and at that level, it’s fair to call it an almost perfect conversion. The Super Famicom version suffered from hardware limitations and was handled by Takara, a different company, so the results weren’t particularly impressive. In contrast, the PC Engine CD version of Fatal Fury Special was developed directly by SNK as a test case for CD-based game production before the release of the Neo Geo CD, which explains its exceptionally high level of quality.

The X68000 was one of the best home computers for enjoying classic Konami and Capcom arcade games. Its hardware was so powerful that, aside from the Neo Geo, it was virtually the only system capable of delivering near-perfect arcade conversions at the time. Unfortunately, it was extremely expensive and sold exclusively in Japan, so very few people ever had the chance to experience it. Even today, decades after its release, the quality of its games is still incredibly impressive. Ghouls ’n Ghosts is a perfect example. Compared to the Mega Drive and PC Engine versions, the X68000 port is on an entirely different level in terms of accuracy and overall quality. It’s still amazing to think that a game this good could fit on just two floppy disks.

When the Sega Game Gear first came out, it was truly shocking. The Game Boy was already impressive, but the Game Gear felt like a true next-generation handheld with its backlit color screen. You could even watch TV with the TV tuner, and it also let you connect other game consoles, which made it incredibly versatile. The downside? It could drain six AA batteries in no time.

There were two systems that let you play arcade games at home: SNK’s Neo Geo and Capcom’s CPS Changer. Their concepts were a bit different. The Neo Geo was basically an arcade machine turned into a home console, so you could see it as a regular game system. (1/2)

Let me introduce “Street Fighter Zero 2”, a game that Capcom pushed the Super Famicom’s hardware to its absolute limits to create. It was released at a time when next-generation consoles were already out, so I don’t think many people actually got to play it back then. (1/2)

Metal Slug 4 often gets a lot of criticism, but if you look at it separately from Metal Slug 1–3, it’s not actually a bad game. The stylish BGM that starts right from Stage 1 is excellent, and the Double Heavy Machine Gun was a really cool addition. That said, the biggest drawback is that the game feels very familiar—almost like you’ve seen it all before—which is hard to ignore while playing. In Korea, it was released around the time when arcades were disappearing due to the rise of PC cafe, so not many people actually had the chance to experience this game back then.

This is the Samsung Handy Gam Boy, the version of the Sega Game Gear that was imported and sold by Samsung in Korea. It’s one of the harder Samsung gaming systems to find, making it quite a challenge for collectors. Because of that, a fan produced a small batch of reproduction units. Even the box was faithfully recreated, and they went as far as reproducing the “Handy Gam Boy” branding on the console itself. I was never able to get an original one, so I’m really happy to have something like this to fill that gap in my collection. 😊

Among all the games released on the PlayStation, I think Final Fantasy VII was truly the greatest. There had been cinematic games before, but the visual quality of this game was on a completely different level compared to anything that had come before it. Maybe this was also the moment when game developers first fell into the AAA trap, struggling with blockbuster-level development costs. Personally, Final Fantasy VII was the most visually shocking console game I had ever experienced.

The Game Boy was a massive hit, but to be honest, I was always more jealous of the friends who had a Game Gear. Even though it drained batteries quickly, its game quality was on a completely different level compared to the Game Boy. In reality, most people used rechargeable AA batteries or an AC adapter, so the battery issue wasn’t as big of a problem as many people think. The real issue was the price. I played Streets of Rage again recently, and it’s still a great game today.

I used to play Street Fighter II all the time, but the first time I saw Art of Fighting, the visual impact was unbelievable. The characters filled the entire screen, fighting with overwhelming intensity. And when the distance between them increased, the screen would dynamically zoom out — that effect felt absolutely revolutionary at the time. It was stunning. On top of that, the facial damage system was incredibly realistic. The more you got hit, the more your character’s face would swell and bruise. It added a level of immersion that I had never experienced before. And did you know? The concept of the “super move” was first introduced in Art of Fighting. That was the legendary Ryuko Ranbu. When your life gauge was almost empty, you could unleash it and turn the tide of battle in a single moment. That comeback mechanic felt amazing. Oh, and if I remember correctly, this was also the very first “100 Mega Shock” game. The game was later ported to the SNES, Sega Genesis, and PC Engine CD. Among them, the PC Engine version was surprisingly faithful to the arcade original.

I’d like to introduce the Hyundai Comboy 64, the final Nintendo console released by Hyundai Electronics. In 1997, South Korea was hit by the IMF financial crisis, which caused the value of the Korean won to collapse. As a result, the prices of imported products skyrocketed, and many companies were pushed into bankruptcy. Hyundai Electronics was no exception. Shortly after the launch of the Comboy 64, the situation worsened rapidly. Only four titles that had already been prepared were released, after which Hyundai withdrew from the console business altogether. The number of units sold was very limited, and today, surviving hardware is considered extremely rare. After this, both Samsung Electronics and Hyundai Electronics completely exited the game console market. From that point on, Nintendo began selling its products in Korea through its own local subsidiary.
