Hello everyone

[graffias79]

Thanks for the welcome.  I've been in recovery from a spinal procedure for the last few days so I haven't been on much.  Turbo stuff was not available too close to where I grew up but I was able to get into it despite this.  I got the TG-16 from a friend at the time and the Duo was bought new at Babbages in Rockford, Illinois.  If only I were a more careful teenager my Duo would look a little prettier and still have its door!  My entire family, including my mom immediately fell in love with the Ys I & II pack-in.  I remember she made me play it through the stereo so she could listen to the background music.

As for any noticeable trouble; If you go into the CD player screen and try pressing "fade out" while it's playing it delays for a moment and the audio just stops abruptly.  I hope there is not already damage!  It's still able to games and audio CDs.  I tested it recently and it played one of my longest CDs out to the edge, and didn't seem to have trouble seeking anywhere on the disc.

That's awesome.

I used to put the CD in my stereo and listen to the music that way. It is such a great soundtrack.
Oh and welcome! I'm new around here too.

Hi all, Not sure if this is the proper place for an introduction thread, if not, I apologize.  I'm 35 this year and have been a TG-16 owner since 1992 and a Turbo Duo owner since 1993.  I wasn't aware of the forum here until it was recently suggested that I join.*  My favorite Turbo games are the Ys series, Ninja Spirit, Air Zonk, Gate of Thunder, Alien Crush and the Legendary Axe series.  This looks like a great place to look around so thanks for approving my request to join!

*It's been recently brought to my attention that my beloved Duo will inevitably need capacitor service.  Part of why I joined was to seek out someone capable of performing the operation since I do not possess the skills for such a task.  With the way prices on Turbo/PCE systems these days I feel that a little preventative maintenance is a good idea!

Welcome, comrade 

A lot of us are, sadly, old mothers. I'm 39. Wish I was younger. How am I going to beat every video game ever made in the next few decades? It doesn't seem likely....
