Hello. I wanted to get a laptop along with some games, including both official and fanmade Touhou games. The problem is that I've heard of people claiming that Touhou games (not sure if they're official or not, I assume they mean the official ones) don't run fine on Laptops. So, my question is, do any of you Laptop users had issues with Touhou games on your Laptop? Any help will be appreciated.

Lots of people play the games on laptop without issues.
EDIT: Only issue may be ghosting, or not being able to press more than a certain number of keys at once. Check before you buy. Or get a separate keyboard.

I started playing Touhou on a laptop with a Pentium M. The laptop didn't even run Windows (Xubuntu + Wine) and it could run EoSD at full speed and PCB/IN at 45fps.
My next laptop ran on a Pentium dual-core and could run everything up to DDC at 640x480 full speed.
In other words modern laptops run Touhou fine.
But yeah check your keyboard. Visit this site (http://www.microsoft.com/appliedsciences/content/projects/KeyboardGhostingDemo.aspx). Click the keyboard, then hold left shift, Z, and X at the same time. While holding these keys, try holding down the following arrow keys: up-left, up-right, down-left, down-right. Bonus points if you can hold left shift, Z, and C; and left shift, X, and C; along with the various arrow key combinations.
If any key(s) don't light up, your keyboard is bad.

Ah, I see. Well thanks for both of your help! Looks like I may get a laptop soon.
EDIT: To any of you here who owns a MSI GS70 Stealth Pro laptop, do you have any issues with it's keyboard? Or even any other issues, especially with games?
