TurboGrafx Fest 2007?

I was also thinking about two-player Turbo Express linking today. I would love to see that, mainly because I have never had the chance to hook up two Express'! We should see if we can get that Steve Griener guy, the president of Hudson Entertainment, to make it. He used to work with Hudson back in the Turbo days and has a lot of neat info about that kind of stuff and seems to enjoy talking about it. The problem is that he also seems to be a busy guy and I'm not sure if he would be willing to travel from CA to WI.

Tatsujin, I so wish I could have attended that PCE festival in good old Switzerland with you and everyone else! That looked like a ton of fun.

I believe that for Turbolink, you can can just use a stereo cable with 2 Male DIN connection on each end. Falcon works via the link as well.

I believe there was a thread on here that talked about using a stereo cable as a Turbo Link. The only games I know of that use the Turbolink are:

Bomberman
Bomberman '93
Falcon
Some PCE puzzle game

I forget if Bomberman '94 had the link feature or not. Also does anyone know if you can do any multiplayer game with the Turbolink for two players, say Cadash? Or can it only be one of those Turbolink exclusive titles? I've been curious about this question for years.

I think to play multiplayer with TGE's the game has to have the multi-link option.

Also: I think around December we should make it OFFICIAL whether this is a go or not, and also solidify the name of the event.

These are a few I dug, but are not limited to:

TurboLife - TurboFest - TurboGrafxFest - DuoPalooza -

So sometime around Xmas we can start a poll and vote on the OFFICIAL NAME!!

thanks again for all the ideas, this is GONNA ROCK!

The game had to be specifically made to use the link.

Can anyone confirm if an 1/8" stereo cable works?

Falcon can link? I hope it's for portable one on one dog fights, cause that'd be wicked awesome, no matter how choppy it is!

I've played Falcon over the link. I played Falcon and one of the Bomberman's at a CES.

How was Falcon with the link? I'm interested to know. We have to try linking up TE's at the MGC.

Well, I think it was like 1992 when I did so, but I thought that it played just like it did in Single Player.

Wow, I remember this thread and recently saw that turbosage was starting to save money for this.  I would love to go too!!  Don't know if the time of year will be good though, but I'll def. be looking into it!
What a horrible night to have a curse...
