I don't really know anything about the system but I'm fully prepared to drop $300 on a system and $200 on a port of a game that can be easily played elsewhere because f*ck, it's just money.
My life and anus in a nutshell.
Or maybe Its something ive been intrigued with for a while and want to know more about. I dont have a pcengine just a usa turbo. God forbid I want to ask people who might have owned one for information. I work and support my house, cars, and hobbies just fine. I appreciate your concern for my monetary well-being.
ANYWAYS, back on topic...
I think ill try on emulation like suggested. See if its something worth getting. I was really attracted to the fact that its kind of a cool looking system with that PCEngine compatibility and can play its own games(albeit only 5). I was thinking of getting a way to play PC Engine stuff and based upon prices of everything for a little more getting this(instead of a Duo) seemed like a better deal for me. I think :-P
Buy whatever you want, just spare us the contrived justifications and seemingly not genuine requests for advice.
A way to play PCE games would be to buy a $60 PCE or mod your TG for $10 in parts. The SGX is going to cost that much squared. It also takes up that much more room.
It's cool and it's awesome, but it's also a kinda dumb and it sucks. That's why it was cancelled before it went on sale and it only got five games. Why would you expect people to do anything but talk you out of it?
And getting it instead of a Duo...that's nonsense. The SGX has five exclusive games, none are impressive, all made in the same year. The Duo lets you play over 300 games a SGX can't play and they include most of the systems' best games. SCD was the "main" PCE format more than any other, with standard PCE cards being second.
You need to play Dracula X and you keep reaching for Battle Ace. Keep it together!
