Blazing Lazers on a Turbo Express in late 1990 (I think). I had never played anything other than NES and Gameboy up until that point and my dad brought the Express, a tuner and Blazing Lazers home from work one Friday. I got to play with it over that weekend and was blown away. I asked for a Turbo Grafx that Christmas but oddly never got Blazing Lazers until years later.

How much were new systems and such on Turbo Zone Direct?

I paid $199 for my new Duo, it was complete in retail box, but had no games included. I think the Gates 4 in 1 disc was $30, and Lord of Thunder was $30 or $35, both new.

Oh okay. thanks for getting back to me. Looks like the website/store closed in 2008, so in a way, I just missed it. At the time though Turbo Grafx anything didn't catch my attention. lol

Bonks Adventure in 1989-90 in a Radioshack in some mall in Texas.  They had a TG16 hooked up to a big screen TV right out in front of the store.  Naturally I made a bee-line to it as soon as I saw it.  I remember my sister getting so pissed because I wouldn't let her play.  Must have scarred her for life because she still talks about to this day.

Keith Courage, probably 1991. Second game was Fantasy Zone, that was probably 1992.

On emulator I don't remember. When I purchased one last year, first game I tried was Blazing Lazers. I was amazed, of course.

First game for me was Keith's Courage.  I bought the TG-16 with my own money.  Saved up for it specifically to play Bonk's Adventure, but after paying for the system I had no money left.  Two weeks later I bought Bonk's Adventure and the TurboGrafx-16 changed me as a gamer for life.

Kieth Courage, 1989. It was the game that lured me to the Turbografx over the Genesis (well that and Dungeon Explorer I think) I just loved the bright colors.

Got a used Turbo and some games off Yahoo auctions in '98. First Turbo game I put in it was Keith Courage.  Not a good first impression. However, I also had Bomberman, Galaga '90 and Ninja Spirit, which were much better :)

it was the pc engine 22 years ago not the turbo for me (god i am old) and it was tale of the monsters path quickly followed by shinobi

if it was the turbo it would be 2 months ago and it was blazing lasers

Can't really remember, but I'm pretty sure it was either Bonk or Keith Courage.
