MindRec's Luna Patrol and more!!

I've shared my feelings on the passing of the very first homebrew developer of our very favorite console in previous posts, but today we're looking towards the future!  The PCE community has seen a recent uptick in original software creations that is expanding our lovely library of incredible games. In 2025 there should be new SaruSoft and Aetherbyte creations, as well as others yet to be officially announced.

This is conjunction with translation projects has us eagerly anticipating the next big announcement! 

Most recently I've had the opportunity to take a deep dive into VAX for the PCE Super CD and omfg, let me tell you... It's a fantastic party game collection! Slope Dope, VAX, Zar's Ultion, and Wave of Thunder come packed with as four brand new games, and three remastered ones covering two SCDs. This is the arcade collection that you have been waiting for, with something for everyone: Puzzle games, a classic shooting game, arcade racing games, and even the first skiing game for the PCE.

The VAX Collection also introduces a new character to the MindRec family: NN9. Neko Nanobot Nine (aka NN9) is the main character of the flagship game VAX; beating the game in story mode will reveal her story, and her upcoming adventures will keep the TurboDuo light ablaze for the next few years.

However, for the first time ever, we've got an all new release ON HUCARD from MindRec!!  This game is a trippy take on Moon Patrol, but it doesn't end there. The card comes equpped with a very in-depth options menu that allows you to modify just how the game feels and plays. Everything from options on changing your vehicles colours, the challenge level, speed and more!  

You can pick up your copy of Luna Patrol over at guineapig games while supplies last!

The legend of MindRec and Turbografx/PCE homebrew lives on!
