No PC-Engine/Turbo CD mention on Modern Marvels: 90's Tech Show

That's pretty lame, don't these people do any research beyond their own memories?  I mean f*ck, a quick wikipedia search would have told them the Playstation wasn't the first CD system.

PCエンジンDuo (PI-TG8) 1991年9月発売 メーカー希望小売価格 59,800円

Could you translate that for idiots like me that don't understand what appears to be chicken scratches?

the PC Engine Duo (PI-TG8) was released in the 9th month of the year 1991, at a manufacturer recommended retail price of 59'800 japanese yen.

This is completely ridiculous. By the time the Playstation came out, DVDs were already taking hold all around the first world. It was only a matter of time before it became standard fare in video games. If anything, the Playstation was the LAST console to use CDROM technology, not the first.

thought the same here and so true as the N64 may be was the last for trad. carts (excluding handhelds), but that's again an other story.

I don't trust anything that comes from the tube anymore.

Thanks, Tatsujin.   I guess I could've gleaned that info. from the numbers.  :oops:

Does anybody else know the month of release for the CD-i or Marty?
