Any review of the PC Engine must begin with this simple fact... it was the all-time greatest console for Shooters (shmups, shootemups, whatever you like to call them). Lords of Thunder, Gradius, R-Type, Blazing Lazers, Soldier Blade, Nexzr... a mind blowing 120 plus shooters graced this system.
So join me in Smoking the Shooter Crackpipe as we talk about the PC Engine... what made it cool and the top choice for the hardcore Shmup crowd and competitive gaming during the 16bit era.

Gotta say that I really like your enthusiasm. That love for shmups is contagious.

Great review man! I've seen a lot of those reviewers that are like "I've never had a TG16 growing up but my buddy did" and "are these games even relevant anymore?" I feel sorry for people that never experienced these games. Keep up the great work!
-
I am sad this channel flew under my radar for so long , but I am glad I am here now. The intro had me rolling on the floor haha. Great video. Looking forward to binging your entire uploads playlist.

Nearly 6 months later, and this is STILL the best, freshest retro mini console review. Thanks Shmup Junkie!

It’s been a while since I watched this and bought my core graphx mini. Now I’ve played numerous pc engine games and love the system, might be my favorite, close second favorite system. I re watch this every now and then, it takes me back to a couple years ago, I love the enthusiasm. This video just makes me feel excited, thanks
-
So glad to have a proper in depth review of the PCE mini! I was sad with other YT videos saying Lord of Thunder has many issue, thank god it's not true!:) Awesome job man.
-
I've just discovered your channel and absolutely love your videos, thank you for the time and effort and pure passion you put into them. The second you called the people who hate emulation 'pricks' I knew this was the right place for me 😄
-
Great video, thoroughly enjoyed Part 1. It's nice to see someone properly review the console that they grew up with and loved. Looking forward to Part 2 👍
-
The most surreal thing to know is Tony Hawk was the one who made the "What do you think about Lords of Thunder" video. That was his voice.
-
Still watching this video and still enjoying my PC Engine mini. Thank you for talking me into buying one.
-
Great review! Looking forward to seeing part 2. It's really nice to get an authentic review from someone that is passionate about all things PC Engine/TG16 and not just from a casual or from someone full of negative energy. I absolutely love my Mini and have no regrets about getting it. I agree we are very fortunate to have this in the first place. I'm so grateful. This is from someone who collects original hardware too.
-
This guy’s energy is amazing. I died laughing at “elitist prick” keep up the great work and thank you for making my day!!
-
Love how passionate u are with shmups. I’m not pro or anything but I have a blast playing n try to get the old classics that release on switch. Most Shooters on PC Engine art style still hold up today with colours that pop out.
-
Still watching your videos, my only regret so far is that it took my this long to find your channel.
-
I’ve wanted a PC Engine since I was 15 years old and back then it would have been impossible to get one. Not only didn’t it release in my region importing games back then was almost impossible as well. So imagine my joy and excitement when I 31 years later finally got to play it! It’s by far my favorite mini console and I’m so happy to finally get to experience the fantastic game library that the PC Engine has to offer. And I got to say I just love your channel. Such an inspiring and fun way to learn about classic shooters.
-
Your love and passion for this system and its library is inspiring and infectious! Congratulations on this huge success, it's clearly a labor of love and I really appreciate the supreme effort you're putting into this!
-
Coming back to older videos after watching your amazing mega drive compilation. Absolutely love how you tell it like it is to the hardware/rasberry pi and lag snobs out there. You tell 'em Junkie, and keep tellin' em! We got your back.

Picked up a Core Grafx Mini from Amazon Japan last year after watching MadLittlePixel's review. I didn't pick up a Turbo Grafx 16 growing up but it was always in my view but it was out of my reach. I'm so happy I have it now and discovering all these shooters I missed growing up.
-
Blazing Lasers is the perfect starter schmup. It's starts out really easy, but fast, smooth, and with a cool power up system. It's the shooter that got me into playing shooters recently
-
..oh my! just found you. someone after my own heart who LOVES shooters. Never had a PC Engine when I was younger but lusted after one (here in UK, you had to import one as it or ots games were not available easily, and hence a massive cost). Loving the mini engine too.
