My real point though is that these VC reviewers would probably rate Turbo games on average 2 points higher if the exact same games were SNES or Genesis titles. See, the VC reviewers probably don't know much about the Turbo, like most of the general public, and rely heavily on what they read about it to create an idea in their head of what it must have been like "back in the day" since they don't have their own memories to base off of. Since most of the history you can find and read online about the TG-16 contains words like "loser" and "failure" and "dead on arrival" it's no wonder they can't help but put a negative spin on all things Turbo in their heads. And this feeling comes across in the scores they give the games. Whether it's actually indicative of the quality of the game in question is another story altogether.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).
Superior price tag.
