new here...
« on: April 26, 2015, 06:11:16 AM »
hello everyone, i am new here.  i just bought a tg-16 on ebay which will arrive in about a week.  i plan to pick up some games, and maybe even the everdrive.  i didn't have a tg-16 in the 90's, i had a SNES.  i finally realized what a gem the tg-16 system is.  this is a massive forum with tons of great info, so i plan to pore over it as soon as i can.

Nothing wrong with a snerds. :) Did you play a lot of RPGs on the system?  If so, you're in for a treat should you ever acquire the means to play CD games.

Anyways, welcome aboard. ^-^

Glad you found yourself a system.  You should pick up the everdrive.  A new version is supposed to be coming out soon, so you may be able to find the current model on a discount when that happens.

If you're into playing the games, you should definitely start by getting an Everdrive. If you still have collectard urges, you can satisfy them with patience and based on experience with the games.

If you had asked here first, we would have recommended getting a Duo-R with region mod first so you'd have access to everything.

When you're ready for mods and CD gaming, look up Keith Courage.

Don't listen to the folks who say you need to get CD-ROM. You have plenty of time to check that out in the future.

Enjoy the great HuCARD games (with EverDrive).

Thanks for the welcome.  RPG's? No, I only had a few carts for the SNES and my favorite was Prince of Persia. 

I am not a big fan of CD or DVD based systems for whatever reason.  I hate scratches  8-[

I am not an airsofter, but I made up the name "airsoftmodels" one day, and got a gmail account with it, the name kind of stuck. 

I will definitely get the Everdrive, as soon as I verify my system works.  I will probably get the Core Grafx system as well to play all the great Japanese Shmups.

Welcome aboard!

Skipping the CDs is kinda silly.  There lots of great huey games, of course, but you'll miss out on some of the system's best games.

Welcome to forum!

I also heard Turbo's best games are on CD's. In the hunt for the CD attachment myself.
