Hi,

Are there any wide screen games for PCE? On this website http://joyce.eng.yale.edu/~bt/turbo/emu/ I see a picture of R-type 2 that seems to bee widescreen.

Pretty new year from Belgium.

No widescreen per say Smile

The PC Engine can display three screen modes : 256x224 (90% of the games), 336x224 (10%) and 512x224 (a handful, including the Sherlock Holmes series). Of course these resolutions are displayed in fullscreen (4/3 ratio) on a real TV, thus higher resolutions have sharper pixels. That's the case with R-Type, which is a 336x224 game (352x224 overscan, to be precise).
