(Mods, if you feel this thread needs to be deleted since race is the factor, go ahead, no harm done)

What's your ethnicity? I'm black/afro American. I think I'm the only Turbo/PCE player of that type.

Anyway I'm just curious if there's other Turbo/PCE fans that are black or afro-american other than myself.


Of course we could just say..."Whats your ethnicity everybody?"

again no harm done.

Ninja Spirit, I talk to another person online who is African American and is a Duo fan :D , he's also a kickass gamer in general. Oh and a good friend of mine is half black and is a huge fan of the TG16/PCE. He used to have a nice collection before he sold/traded it away.

I am a white, USA citizen with mainly Irish decent from my dad's side. Not sure about what's on my mom's side except a bit of German and possibly even Indian.

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

I'm primarily Canadian-French (Quebeccian, about 75%) with strong Abenaki (Native American, just under 25%) blood and just a small portion Japanese (hardly 1%, a mix-in during the 16th century). My wife is mostly French and Hispanic with some African mix-in.

I'm mostly Irish, with a little bit of Scottish, though i'm not sure of the percentages. I was born here(in the u.s.) but my mom was born in Ireland.

Well since mixtures are coming into the picture, I'd say I'm Cape Verdean/Portuguese.

Yah, sorry Ninja Sprit...the basis of this topic is too unrelated to the Turbo....locking.

Mad props Aaron. Had no idea we'd resolve that so quickly.

But yeah back to my root of the thread. I wanted to see if there were other Black/Afro-American Turbo gamers other than myself. All of them I know are either White, Asian and Hispanic.

Nice to see this thread back because I am interested as well.

Ninja Spirit, you say you know Hispanic PCE gamers? I'm not sure if I know any, but most PCE gamers seem to be white and Asian (specifically Japanese).

One thing I have always been curious about is the large fanbase of PCE fans in France. I mean the system was never even released out there, so what is it exactly that attracted them to importing a PC Engine? Rather odd, I'd say.

I remember seeing that piece of info about France's PCE scene.

They sold PCE everywhere and the games included translated manuals.
