Not enough is said about the fact that Dracula owns several properties, including Neuschwanstein Castle and Mont-Saint-Michel, and that he presumably leaves all or some of them vacant between resurrections.

So who am I anyway, and why do I have opinions on emulation-vs-FPGA anyway ? Some people may not have heard my name before. I've been following the PC Engine since 1989. I made the Kisado adapter to play import games on TG-16 after comparing the PCBs of TG16 and PCE in late 1989.

Small update on the Megadrive *rally game* ? I added sprites and did some optimization so CPU is still at 70% usage with a stable 60 fps. I'm a bit disappointed by the sprite width limit per-line. I wanted a lot more dense vegetation but it's not possible with sprites. I'll try other methods.

Complete the game, then when the NEC Avenue text comes up at the end of the credits press and hold up, select, and button II. Release when it goes back to the intro and then all of the enemies (except the bosses) are changed. Most to some kind of infringement.
