What was the first Turbo Grafx game you've played?

[Bernie]

hmm, I think it was KC.  It had to be, since that was the pack in.

Keith Courage early 90s at Toys R Us in Portland Oregon. I would say most of us on this forum probably played Keith Courage as their first Turbo game. Of course I remember seeing this commercial too:

[roflmao]

R-Type, circa 1990.  I had a Sega Master System and R-Type back then and friend of mine brought over his Turbografx-16 w/ R-Type one day and the rest was history.  I sold my Master System as soon as I could to fund a Turbografx-16.  The intro music at the beginning of the first stage still gives me chills, because I remember how completely blown away I was when compared to the Sega Master System version (which I still think is a pretty decent version).

Keith Courage 1992. I played an in-store before that, but I can't remember which game.

You lucky pricks, I never got to play a tg16 system until I bought my first one in about 2000-2001.
kieth courage was my first and i was disappointed, but soon after got Dragon Spirit and got hooked... I loved that f@cking game.

It was Keith in 90 or 91. My friend got the genesis with altered beast. I thought Keith was better and still do.

Bonk. It was on display to try at a JVC store before release. Sealed the deal.

[thesteve]

had to be keith

[MrFlutterPie]

Bonk's Adventure at a Radio Shack demo unit in 91-92.

The stupid thing was set to reset automatically after 5 mins of play so I would always try to get as far as I could before the game reset.

My own unit same game circa 2007.

I played (or watched?) BLAZING LAZERS in 1989 at Toy R Us.

First game on my own TG-16 console…1989...Keith Courage, followed by  Blazing Lazers.

... but soon after got Dragon Spirit and got hooked... I loved that f@cking game.

Hell yes. 

[TR0N]

Keith Courge and Bonks Adventure around 91 or 92 i think.

[ParanoiaDragon]

It had to be sometime in 90, since Bonk 1 was out, but I got my TG in February of 91'.  I think it was either Bonk or KC, possibly Blazing Lazers.  It was at a friends house, I was staying overnight & we were going to Disneyland the next morning.  I played Bonk almost all the way thru, I remember being flippin' tired & trying to get myself up that vertical area in level 5 with the blocks that open up right after you land on them, I eventually gave up  I know he also had Bloody Wolf, but, someone was borrowing that.  So, yeah, it had to be either BL, KC, or Bonk.  Man, playing the Turbo when it was new....that is such a freakin' great memory!  Man, it's wierd, but I can smell that new(ish) Turbo, those were the days!

[Keith Courage]

Vigilante was the first one I ever played. It was on display at a Montgomery Wards Electric Avenue. The first games I ever owned that came with the system bundle I bought were Keith Courage, Fighting street, Ys 1&2, and Monster Lair.

[soop]

As always, I have PC Engine, but out of the seven games I got with my GT in around '97...  I would probably shoved in Afterburner II, but I remember playing the shit out of PC Kid 2, so it may well have been that.

Keith Courage in 1990. Dad went to the store with the goal of bringing home a NES for my birthday but came back with a TG instead after a sales guy talked him into it.

Before that our house only had a Commodore VIC 20 for gaming.
