The Fox: Could you tell us whats happening ??

David: I'm actually making a list of compatibility, but it's not very easy because I change the CD emulation every day and each time I'm obliged to re-test all the CDs and sometimes a CD that worked before doesn't work anymore, so the list is changing very often... I think I won't have an accurate list before September.

The Fox: Could you give us an approximate guess of when the V9 is going to be released?

David: In September, but I don't know the exact date yet.

The Fox: Is there any other new stuff other than the CD and Super CD Emulation?

David: About the emulation, no nothing new. I have reported the Supergrafx emulation of one version... Not enough time.

The Fox: How is the Super CD and Cd Emulation looking so far?

David: It's not that bad.

The Fox: What is your favourite PC Engine game ??

David: Oh it's a difficult question... There's so much good games! One HuCard I to play often is F1 Circus '92, but usualy I prefer CD games.

The Fox: What is your target with the Magic Engine Emulator??

David: No special target, I'd just like to make it as compatible as possible with the PC Engine.

The Fox: Any chance of a beta demo David? or any snaps!

David: About beta demos, no I won't release one. You will have to wait the final demo of September. For the snapshots I don't know, may be I will wait a bit more, and perhaps the exclusively will be for the Magic Engine's homepage... I don't know yet. Bye bye ! PS. Last time I was on your web page, I saw you mentionned that all the CDs will work... unfortunatelly it's not true, some won't work.

THIERRY LESCOT INTERVIEW

Thiery: Only the System 16 and 18 games will be fully supported in the next release, that means Shinobi, Golden Axe, Shadow Dancer, Alien Storm, Wrestle War, Time Scanner, Quartet and Altered Beast.

The Fox: Please could you let me know also which games WILL have full sound.

Thierry: None, i removed the FM emulation, but some games will have samples. (Shinobi, Wrestle War, Shadow Dancer, Altered Beast)

The Fox: Thanks for all your help and Good Luck with your emulator! Thanks Thierry Lescot (aka ShinobiZ)
