turbografx guide books
« on: March 12, 2012, 04:54:41 PM »
Anyone know of the existance of any other books besides the Encyclopedia and the two "Secrets of..." volumes that provides info/secrets/cheats the Turbo and its games/accessories? Mostly curious cause I own all three mentioned books and wouldn't mind knowing a little more about any others that may exist.

Those are the only ones I am familiar with.  I am currently organizing my GamePro cheats and such so I can post them for all to enjoy.  There are some great ones such as the Bloody Wolf "hover" code
Thunderbolts first down!

GamePro released a guide for sports games on the Turbo, NES, and Genesis. Contains only a handful of Turbob titles. Quite a worthless book. Wouldn't mind finding that Winners Guide for the Turbo. Every place online that could have it, don't.

Bump.

I just discovered a small TurboGrafx section in the back of Jeff Rovin's "How to Win at Sega & Genesis Games." Pages 195-209 contain short tips and codes ranging from two pages (for Blazing Lazers) to a single sentence in length. The games covered are mostly launch titles with the orange spine plus some early colored-spine chips, like Bonk's Adventure and Splatterhouse.

The book can be found dirt cheap and also contains a nice 40-page Master System section.
