came across a thread lately with a guy offering ridiculasly high amounts of money for ridiculasly rare PCE stuff. as a tg-16/PCE collector myself this raised some intrest (and some feelings of depression seeing as i'm not rich and there seems to be a ton of pce items forever out of my financial reach)

so my question is one of the items listed was a "PC Engine Hibino". i did a google search and nothing turned up. can anyone tell me what this thing is?

its a monkey that plugs into the tgfx16 and causes the funk level to rise to drastic proportions.

I can't find nothing. All I found is the post you are likely referring too and a passing remark at assemblergames.com. It is likely made up/mis-spelled/or a developement - prototype thingie.

At first I thought you might have meant kisado but I suppose not now.

It's also the name of a President at NEC which suggest to me it's a developement or prototype name...

Only 2 exist,those are PC Engine system "painted/designed" by Hibino artist,when teh PCE was released.
Those 2 models were present at a Japanese game show back at the time,and disappeared after that.


Like the Neptune for Sega fans :)
