荒川 憲一 ~ I miss you badly (PC-98 スピークボード ~Speak Board~ YM2608/OPNA)

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

I really like it especially the BZZ-guitar part, wish it was longer

[@metalxxxgear4894]

DUDE love this

[@サダルスード]

おお…スピークボード MUSIC SHOWだ…コレのFLASH FLASH FLASHを聞きたいです…m(_ _)m

[@Akyuu2608]

Sounds so familiar
I've heard these melodies before

[@Margatroid]

Getting professional now with the mixer! This sounds really good. Also, do you have a serial adapter for that Super Famicom controller? That's a real piece of otaku kit if so, haha.

[@matt_trakker]

Thanks for the comment! The controller is hooked up to the Speak Board which has a MSX standard joystick port. Other sound boards like the PC-9801-86 and PC-9801-26K also have joystick ports. The Super Famicom controller is modified to MSX Joyport D-sub9.

[@Margatroid]

@@matt_trakker That's so odd, I'd never expect sound boards to have joystick inputs! Do you use it just for skipping to the next track and adjusting the volume, or is it some kind of passthrough to the PC itself?

[@matt_trakker]

I use it for games that have controller support. =)

[@Margatroid]

@@matt_trakker That makes more sense, haha. I used to have some kind of cheap SNES controller clone for my PC in the 90s. Using a real one on a PC-98 is a dream.

@@Margatroid This was also common on IBM compatible PCs before USB became common. The assumption was basically that if you installed a sound card you would probably be playing some games too. The standard joystick connector on such cards was a 15 pin d-sub.
