You guys just love those "games" for their art, but there's barely any actual games on NEC platforms, aside PC-Engine CD.

How badly the fucked up the TurboGrafx in the US and Europe(where they only got ONE game) is proof enough of that.

The art style back then is just so more appealing than even the modern ones for some reason.

I heard that some DOSBOX was doing a port of PC98 since the hardware was similar. Is this true

The PC98 OS is a modified version of DOS. But what do you mean when you say they're "porting" it? Are they making a full-scale emulator, or some kind of "Free PC98" to boot into?

But that's not true? It wasn't until the early 2000s that the West took over gaming.
Not that I care. Japan should just make games for the Japanese and weebs. Hell JRPGs and VNs is what keeps me in this hobby.

the PC98 had higher graphics quality than western monitors because they needed the extra quality to read japanese characters, which is why they looked better.

It's a Japanese PC that was popular in the 80/90s that got a ton of porn games made for it. It wasn't really made for gaming, so it has mostly VNs.

No. But AI can. Perhaps one day we will have software that can translate Japanese games. Sayonara shitty Burger localisation companies.

What are you on about? The West was responsible for the best-made games at the time. What did Japan have at the earliest? A few terribly repetitive JRPG's?

What did we have? Tons of point and click adventures which weren't necessarily better.

Weren't they making these up until 2000 or something? I remember seeing a model with a Celeron in the list of PC-98 variants.

I remember there's one great shmup on the PC-98. Not worth buying the system for on its own though. If you want a great Japanese gaming computer go for an MSX2 or X68000.
