Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Well, lately; I'm trying to find back all these systems in Hong Knog, and have found little stores in old shopping malls where people keep all these old electronics and sells them.  below is my List so far and prices that I got them for,

PC Engine (White)    (got it for about USD 26.00 )
PC Engine Due (CD still works  heehehee)     (got this one for USD 52)
PC Engine Core Grafx 2  (same.. got it for USD 26)

and a few CD and Hu card games,, it works out to around 8 bucks USD each.

In progress of getting:   Super Grafx console.  (this one maybe expensive  USD100), (Rare)  haven't got it yet. but probaby get it from the guy next time going down. 


How much did ya guys get your systems for ?? or you''ve owned them from the begining ?

WOW I PAID ONLY $50 BOX FOR A BRAND NEW TURBO DUO BY GIVING THE OLD BROKEN TURBO GRAFX IN WWW.TZD.COM SOME YEARS AGO.  IT WAS CALLED "THE UPGRADE OFFER". LATER I BUYED A BROKEN TURBO DUO FOR $10 IN A FLEA MARKET AND LATER I SENDED TO TZD.COM WITH OTHER $50 AND GET ANOTHER TURBO DUO BRAND NEW JEJEJE. I'M JUST LUCKY.  LATER I BUYED A TURBO GRAFX CD BASE ONLY WITH 20 GAMES FOR $100 AND I REPLACED THE BROKEN CD PLAYER ONLY WITH A BRAND NEW CD PLAYER I BUYED FROM TZD.COM FOR $25. JEJEJE I DON'T LET GO THIS OPORTUNITIES.  BUT IN THESE YEARS ANY OF THESE ARE POSSIBLE BECAUSE THE OVERPRINCING OF THE MACHINE. BUT WHO CARE'S ABOUT THE PRICE JEJEJE IT'S THE OMNIPOTENT TURBO DUO. IT COST EVERY PENNY !!!
