Setting up PC Engine CD games with Launchbox

[Amuro0079]

Hi guys, I'm just now getting into using launchbox and I was wondering how one would go about setting up and playing PC Engine CD games? There isn't an option for PC Engine/Turbo Duo in LB at all... Thank you for your help!

Well first we use console names based primarily on what TheGamesDB has them setup as because when you run the importer it uses the console name to make its search. Even if you name it something close but say 1 letter off it will be found and the console it belongs to will be changed. For example, there is no MS-DOS section in TheGamesDB and all MS-DOS games live under "PC". While technically true, it is not accurate. However sometimes MS-DOS games will get put in to the PC category because of this. Second, the consoles do exist in LaunchBox but as the TurboGrafx 16 and TurboGrafx CD. TurboDuo was just a combined console with increased RAM and increased compatibility for some CD Based games. However, for LB purposes its still the TurboGrafx 16 and TurboGrafx CD. There is a 3rd console released by NEC called the PC-FX. It doesn't use the 'Turbo' moniker because it was never released outside of Japan. As for getting these to run, there have been several threads talked on these forums a lot about this sort of thing, so please make a search about this instead.
