This volume of the acclaimed series "Perfect Catalog," which thoroughly dissects home retro hardware from both hardware and software perspectives, follows the footsteps of the MSX, X68000, and PC-8801, focusing on the PC-9801 rather than home gaming consoles.
Released by NEC in 1982 as a 16-bit business machine, the PC-9801 gained popularity as a hobbyist computer around the early 1990s. Its computing power was utilized for RPGs, simulations, and even popular dating simulation games, establishing its position as a national machine in the Japanese market until the introduction of Windows95.
This catalog delves into the development history and societal context of the PC-9801 through its "General Games". It's divided into two chapters: the first focusing on the hardware examination of the PC-9801/9821 series and the second presenting a comprehensive catalog of over 1400 general game software titles released in Japan, arranged by release year and manufacturer. An appendix includes a database listing of all PC-9801/9821 game software available in Japan.
