I just dont know what to say about these anymore.  I mean, most of the games for turbografx are bargain bin games at best.  Im not trying to insult, but if it were on any other console, they would be 5-10$ all day long.

That's much more true for popular and commercially successful consoles, like Genesis, SNES, Playstations, Wii, etc.

Which is why retro bargain bins are full of unsold games priced at $1.

Somebody probably sold him an Atari Jaguar with TURBO GRAPHICS tapped over the logo.

I had a bid on that Impossamole, anyone here have a similar one in nice shape for sale?  I'll pay $100 shipped if it is CIB, nice condition with sticker sheet.

This is the worst thread for WTB posts. Just start a thread in the Turbo Sales section with all of your wants and everyone with anything you need will find it.

Yeah not that high of a priority for me, just thought I'd mention it here because it came up in discussion.

I don't know why it is a shocker that a console exclusive game that is moderately hard to find with box commands $125 on the current market.  That's not even expensive?  If someone wants to complain about a price, they should be discussing Jackie Chan and Darkwing Duck which are pulling around $400 complete in box now.  When both of those aren't even exclusives and the NES versions are much cheaper.  Haven't played them but I heard DD was much better on NES too.

My point is that if Impossamole was such a rip off at $125 then someone please sell me one and take my money.  So far, no takers.

It's a shocker because the game isn't very good. You're just buying a game to own it, satisfying some unholy desire to catch 'em all. It seems like there are better things that could be done with your money.

Other than sharing the Darkwing Duck franchise, the TG-16 and NES games are nothing alike.
