No, but most of the games you'd want to save also have text that gets tiny and no fun to read on the TE anyway.

True that. Military Madness and Populous are always eye squinters on the TE.

My bad, I'm not even sure if those games save on a Turbo Booster,  :oops: but I get what you're saying.

As has been said, the games have to support saving to backup RAM in order to work with any of the devices. Bonk 2 doesn't.

The boosters are all made for Core systems with no CDROM2 device. The Ten no Koe lets you store copies of what's in a booster/CDROM2 device. The MB 128 only works with MB128 games and the Save-kun is just, IIRC, Koei's copy of a MB128.

If you are playing a game on a HuCard, don't be afraid to just pause it and walk away, for weeks even. PCEs are tough. If you are playing from a CDROM2 system, just pop the door so that the CD will stop spinning and then treat it as a HuCard system. The music will be interrupted, but it will come back at the next load point.
