Title: TurboGrafx-16 Games on PlayStation Store - PS3 and PSP
Post by: KingDrool on June 02, 2011, 07:17:27 AM: The PlayStation Store is live today in the USA and Bonk's Adventure, Bomberman '94, and Alien Crush are on sale for $5.99. They're playable on both the PS3 and PSP.

Post by: ParanoiaDragon on June 06, 2011, 06:13:12 PM: Actually, besides those 3, there's also Neutopia, Dungeon Explorer, World Sports Competition, & I think a few more. I did think there was supposed to be trophy support for them though?

Post by: Duo_R on June 07, 2011, 04:07:22 AM: Yes says PS3/PSP so looks like you can play on both. Doesn't mention trophy support
Also I wish I could view all the turbo titles like the Neo Geo lineup.

Post by: KingDrool on June 08, 2011, 05:54:38 AM: Yeah, I think there are nearly 10 titles on there now. Some good ones, too. I'll change the thread name...

Actually Duo you can but its kind of weird. If you go into the "PS3 games" menu I believe it will pop up in those every changing windows in the playstation store on the left hand side of the screen. It will be labeled Turbografx classics with the TG16 logo. Highlight it with the controller and hit X.

Post by: Duo_R on June 22, 2011, 04:54:22 AM: Trophies are the only reason I think I would buy a game, but I don't think these have any unless someone can confirm.

Post by: Senshi on June 22, 2011, 05:36:43 AM: Interesting. I have the complete opposite view. To me they have no purpose. I feel like i'm collecting junk. If they did something "in game" to enhance it (which maybe some do) I'd probably be into them. I'd be interested to hear why you like them in all seriousness.

Post by: KingDrool on June 22, 2011, 07:26:19 AM: I like them because it adds a little "meta" game on top of the regular game; that is, if they're done right. If you were to get a trophy in Bonk for something as trivial as "Perform a Head Butt", that'd suck. But if it asked you to do something that was a challenge (Beat T-Ractorhead in under 60 seconds), it can add a fun layer to the game.
