MagicEngine

sideshow

I just wanted to pass if this rom file is needed to play any games in magic engine. I found out that this rom was required to play some pcengine games on the actual system. Can magic engine use this rom or does it already emulate it?

The Ten no Koe Bank doesn't serve any purpose in Magic Engine, since the emulator creates a new Back-up RAM for every game.

Out of curiosity, which games specifically requiring a Ten no Koe Bank are you talking about? There is none I know of. On the other hand, I believe there's a couple of games that can't be played if you don't have a Memory Base 128 or a Save-Kun.

I have played over 250 pc engine/Duo games, and none of them required the Ten no Koe Bank card.

To my knowledge, it only serves as a memory card to transfer data from your system => Ten no Koe Bank or vice versa.

I know there are many games that I have not played, so I could be wong, but I have yet to come across one that requires it.

i didn't know that there were any games that required anything save-kun, ten no koe etc-related. maybe i'm wrong...

the one purpose ten no koe does serve is that from memory it has some hidden save slots for some hudson games (bomberman is one i believe)
whether this can be used under ME, i know not
