I'd have to go with Psychosis, followed by Ninja Spirit in a close second

Ninja Spirit was amazing, but I had to give props to Aero Blasters. The two player mode was the deal maker. That's a tough call though. So many good titles that year.

I voted for Dragon's Curse mostly because of nostalgic allusions to the Sega Master System version.

There were a few great Turbo games that year.  I would get my Turbo the next year.

Everyone should know what I voted for :P .

I know what you should have voted for, Mr. Mohawk Pro-Wrestler.  :D
Just because I star in a video game doesn't necessarily mean it's my favorite! Indeed Battle Royale grabbed my interest, but I just had to vote for the best game ever instead.

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

Damn! Tough list! I had to vote for a personal fave rather than some "objective" best. Aeroblasters it is, then!

Much pain and suffering to whoever calls it "Ninja Spirits".

I stand corrected.  Liar, I'm sitting down.  :lol:

This was a very simple choice, really. The only game that I felt would stand out to be the TurboGrafx-16 Game of the Year in 1990 would be Bonk's Adventure. It really is one of the best platformers out there (in terms of graphical style, I perfer Bonk's Adventure over Bonk's Revenge, and perhaps Bonk 3: Bonk's Big Adventure, too). It had also brought along a mascot for the TurboGrafx-16, giving it an extra earning for this honor.

The other good choices would be Dragon's Curse and Devil's Crush, but in all terms, I feel, Bonk's Adventure wins either way.

Voted for Bonk's Adventure as well, although Legendary Axe II and Bloody Wolf were great games as well... tough choice.

Kitsunexus is a standup guy, really awesome, so I'll just have to share his opinion and vote for Devil's Crush.

it's a classic game, regardless of what system it's on.
Incidentally, is there a Genesis version?
