Yarr, $120 is kinda nuts, no matter what ebay says they're worth.  I feel silly buying that PAL Turbob, but at least it was about half as much, brand new, and is not something you see in everyone's collection.

I'm not sure what good having a TG-16 is, let alone two of them. So yes, you are crazy. Maybe if it was $10 or something, but you paid top dollar.* I have a few different NEC consoles that technically all do pretty much the same thing, but they aren't identical and none of them are the dumb boring dusty black TG-16, with its f*cked up pin swapped/jumbo ports, hugely inflated size, or dumb plastic bus cover that results in a machine that is *like* a PC Engine but is nearly four times the size of one for no apparent reason offering no additional functionality whatsoever.

* Now someone is going to post a link to a loose TG-16 with a huge crack in it that sold for $300.

Since airsoft only got into TG/PCE stuff this year, it seems likely that just not enough research was done ahead of times. Or else he's still in that infatuation phase where anything goes.

The TG-16 is awesome. You suck my left one. POST MOAR OFTEN. Pleeze.

Seriously, though, there are plenty of reasons to have a TG-16. In fact, it is criminal not to have one if you can afford it.

I really like it how people say "deal with it" when they just get done stating some opinion, usually weakly-supported and facile. It signals that their opinion is not up for discussion. How about no? I don't want to deal with your opinion. I'm just gonna ignore it, because it's inconsequential to my life. Hell, it's inconsequential to anyone's. If you don't want a discussion, who the f*ck cares what you think?

(Not directed at nullity, just a side-note about how ridiculous it is how that insipid phrase crept into the vernacular.)

Oh and for the love of Johnny Turbo, remove the plastic film from the system!
