NEC PC Engine PI-TG001 Console w/ PC Genjin, Dungeon Explorer & Vigilante Bundle Used

Used. Tested. Fully working.
All photos are sample images.
Supports NTSC-J (Japan) format only.
RF switch cable, instruction manual, and box are not included.

The console and controller have scuffs, scratches, and slight yellowing from age. The controller includes a built-in turbo (auto-fire/rapid-fire) function. A third-party (non-official) power adapter is included. 

The three included game cartridges (PC Genjin, Dungeon Explorer, and Vigilante) are cartridge-only. Original boxes, manuals, and protective cases are not included. The cartridges show scuffs, scratches, and some yellowing due to age. All game text is in Japanese.

This bundle combines three titles that highlight the variety of early PC Engine gaming. PC Genjin (known as Bonk’s Adventure in other regions) is a quirky and beloved platformer featuring a caveman hero. Dungeon Explorer is a cooperative action-RPG with up to five players, offering a fantasy adventure experience. Vigilante is a classic side-scrolling beat ’em up set in gritty urban environments. Together, these games showcase three different genres—platform action, multiplayer fantasy RPG, and street fighting—that reflect the diverse appeal of the PC Engine. Perfect for collectors and retro gaming fans who want to experience authentic Japanese editions of these iconic classics.

The Future, in the Palm of Your Hand. Again.

Hello, it's the shopkeeper.

Around the time the Famicom had established the new culture of gaming in Japanese homes, another console appeared like a comet, bringing a new shock to us all: the PC Engine.

The company that made this was NEC. For the children of Japan at that time, that name was like a magic word. NEC, who reigned as the "King of Personal Computers" with immense trust, had made a home video game console. That alone was a major, heart-pounding event.

I still remember the excitement I felt at the futuristic form of this little white box when I first saw it. It was a sophisticated design that set it apart from all previous consoles. Above all, the beauty of its graphics and the power of its sound were, in a word, shocking.

This PC Engine must have been treasured by its previous owner. While the console shows some slight yellowing and scuffs from age, I have polished it piece by piece with care, aiming to bring it as close to its original condition as possible. When you hold it in your hands, that old sense of excitement should come rushing back.

This set includes the console, a controller, and a compatible third-party AC adapter. Even with just these, it is more than enough to experience the new world of gaming that the PC Engine opened up.

The "future of gaming" that we dreamed of back then is now in the palm of your hand. Please, awaken those timeless memories once more with this PC Engine.

[A Note on Maintenance from the Shopkeeper]

Each console we deliver is carefully maintained, one by one, so that you can enjoy it for as long as possible, and with peace of mind.

The exterior is cleaned with care to restore as much of its original shine as possible. The internal board and connector pins are also inspected and cleaned to ensure proper operation.

This is not just a used item. It is a special machine, serviced with my own memories and my best wishes for its next owner.
