Which version of 幻影都市 (Illusion City) should I play? MSX or MegaCD?
I mean in Japanese, so no need to care for the translation.
PC98

Why?

MSX has no English translation,only up to disk 6.
I think it has Portuguese or Spanish im not sure.
Also the other anon recommends PC98 because the gameplay is smoother and the music is better.

If you can read moon than PC98 is still the recommended one.

But the Mega CD list of improvements is quite impressive https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/幻影都市
>>3340786
>カッシュの新香港への潜入
>天人、美紅の紹介
Those are basically the only plus points aside from the intro which you can watch without playing the rest of that port.
>一部キャラクターの顔グラフィック変更
More a matter of personal preference.
>VRシステムのうち、多重スクロールの一部がカットされた
Cut content
>戦闘シーンのレイアウトは、MSX turboR版を移植する形で制作されている
>MSX turboR版と同じく、戦闘で術を使用する際には術の詠唱を行う
Just the same as the MSX.
>一部のボス戦では、CD-DAによるBGMの演奏が行われる
Hardly relevant.
I played the MSX version it was good it's kind of like Snatcher meets Phantasy Star but it locked me into a big difficulty jump around disk 4 that I got stuck on and haven't been playing it If disk 6 gets translated maybe then.
Why is MGS4-era Solid Snake in this game?
is the mega cd version translated?

Because Kojima is notorious for plagiarizing other people's work.
If someone finally cracks it, the FM Towns version will likely be the best fit. You'd get the enhanced FM-synth music from the PC-98 version + smoother scrolling than the others.

No. Only the MSX turbo-R version had an English project, completed to just before the last hours of the story.

Somehow I doubt he remembered to play Illusion City either when it came out or later. He actually did play another J-PC cyberpunk game, Imitation City for the FM-7/PC-88 (written by future Chunsoft lead writer Jiro Ishii, http://fm-7.com/museum/softhouse/datawest/330200900.html), which influenced and partly inspired Snatcher.
Will this work on an msx2 or does it require a turbo?

FM TOWNS sounds good but I actually prefer the msx music.

There's a modded version that will run on MSX2 scrolling is just choppier is all.
