Updated the cap map for the NEC AMP-30 Stereo Amplifier. I forgot the 2 caps that are on the small PCB of the volume and bass control. Version 1.1

Both captured from the same scene in Tokimeki Memorial. The 1st image is from the original PC-Engine. And the 2nd is from the PS1 re-release a couple years later.

While the PS1 music and sound is far better, the pixel art shines more on the original. There's an atmospheric blur applied to the background in the PS1 to give more depth to the scene. But it just comes out muddy looking.

Maybe the effect would look better on original hardware, and a CRT. But the original doesn't need either of those things, and still looks better to me. I even prefer the more limited but vibrant colors, like the blue of Shiori's outfit.

Anyway, this has been a critique of a 30 year old dating sim. Thank you.

In the first 60 seconds of Tokimeki Memorial, a girl you've never met asks if you remember her birthday and bloodtype. So yeah. I'm being setup with a psychotic abuser.
