Help/Question How do I play the older games?

I wanna play all of the touhou games.

I have always wanted to play these games but never have seen where to find them.

By “older games,” do you mean PC-98, or the games that aren’t available on Steam?

If you’re looking for the PC-98 games, you can find downloads for them online alongside a PC-98 emulator given that they are abandonware.

If you’re looking for the games that aren’t on Steam, you can find them on AKIBA-HOBBY. It’s highly recommended to purchase EoSD, PCB, and IN all in one go so that shipping prices don’t add up for three separate orders.

You can find every game from PoFV onwards on Steam. Link is right here.

Unfortunately, for now, the only way to get touhou 6-9 legitimately is via buying the cds. There exists no digital release for these three, mostly because of issues with compatibility (I guess).

touhou 9 and up are readily available on steam to purchase
