Making a list of TG16/Duo Systems and Accessories

[Black Tiger]

I still have my official TE car charger. My local Radio Shack never got the first party AC adaptor, so I bought the Tandy brand one.

The "System Card" is not an accessory and was only sold packed-in with the Turbo-CD and it doesn't have any packaging.

The accessories you have listed as "TurboDuo" are actually titled "Duo", like DuoPad and DuoTap.

Though the system card may have not been an accessory with a box it was still an important part of the Turbo history. The hard case that came with the CD system also does not have a box, but I still consider it an accessory.

There's another official Turbo Express carrying case called the "Caddy Pack".

There also exists a third party AC adapter for the Turbo Express (that also has tips for Game Gear, Lynx, and Game Boy) made by Naki.

I'll have to try and track down the caddy pack... but I'm not interested in unlicensed or unofficial accessories.

NEC did have a catalog filled with accessories, from watches to shirts to mugs to SOFT PACK TurboExpress cases to hats to wallets


It was official, through NEC.

An old thread has scans...it was a fold-out pamphlet really.

Now, the HARD CASE TE And TG-16 cases...I don't think they were first party, but licensed., but never advertised in any catalog consumer catalog that I know of.

If you want a picture here is one from an ebay auction 2 days ago.

[Ayce]

Yeah, not really interested in swag either.

But this is the hard case that I'm talking about...


This is my case that I shot for the book. (much lower res version)

I also have images of the other 3rd party hard case.

That was packed in with the TurboGrafx CD-ROM. I'm not aware of any other US CD hardcases. There were some hard cases for the TurboGrafx system itself and the express.

I need to get one of those! My poor TE is always wrapped in fabric and put into a bag when it's not in use.

Sorry, I should have clarified with a picture of third-party plastic hardcase for TG-16 and TurboExpress (the interior is molded hard plastic):

 


NOTE: some lucky bastard has a TurboExpress version of this exact that he stole from me years ago. when I say stole, I mean he offered a lot more $$$$ than I had to the seller. Oh well.

[Ayce]

Yeah I've got images of that case too. I'm not using it in the book since it's not an official product, but I love that case.

[Necromancer]

You mean first party.  It is official product.
