Hello,

Recently, while surfing the net for classic RPGs, I discovered that there are some very good ones on this machine called the PC Engine. After a little research, I also found out that an emulator called the MagicEngine perfectly runs most of the games.

So I went to my nearest store and bought Tengai Makyou1, Tengai makyou2, Tengai Makyou Kabukiden, Emerald Dragon and Tenshi no Uta II, each costing something like 1000-4000yen. Brand new versions cost up to 10000yen($90us)

The problem is, since most of these games are old, I would like to make backups of them, but no matter what program I use, the CD-R won't read, or the program refuses the PCE CD

But on the internet, I see many people have succeeded in it.

Can somone please give me a point in the right direction?
any help will be appreciated, thank you

Welcome Shopro,

There are quite some sites dedicated to the 'back-up' of CD images for the PC Engine. You'll find most useful information on the RIGG's forum:

Happy New Year to you all Mr. Green
