help finding Touhou games? (don't worry, it's legal)
« on: May 18, 2010, 07:15:20 pm »
I'm looking for the Tohou series.. but can't find the more recent title (12) and older ones.  Does anyone know where I can download these games? I can't make sense of the designers website because it's all in japanese.

Used to be able to get all kinds for free at doujin-style, but that site has nothing now, just a forum and no games.

A google search turned up this site that seems to have all the games except 12:

Though not a Touhou game, every cabinet needs Blue Wish Resurrection. Go find it.

It's kinda like doing a mix of Red Bull, crack, and meth, then being shot out of a cannon into a pile of hentai books.

hah ha f'ing funny.  Yup that's exactly what it feels like.  They're actually very possible, at least the Touhou series. 

Thanks for posting the link, now I have a question though.. how can you get individual games to run through the windows 98 emulator (for Touhou 1-5)? Is there any command line that will work for this? Can I do this through a batch file?

and i found Touhou 12.5 on the same blog
