Back in the Turbo Scene
« on: November 02, 2010, 06:32:38 AM »
I had a TG16 probably 3-4 years ago but ended up selling it.. now I've had a lot of systems before, but I never regretted selling any like I did with the 16. But I'm back! Last week I bought a Turbo Grafx 16 with a controller, 2 turbo stix, the multi tap, and the following games:

Military Madness
World Class Baseball
Dungeon Explorer
Jack Nicklaus Golf
Battle Royale
King Of Casino
Keith Courage in Alpha Zones
Alien Crush
Andre Panza Kick Boxing
Bonks Adventure
Chew Man Fu
Cratermaze
Galaga 90
Vigilante

I am pumped to be back, and my next purchase is definitely going to be Air Zonk

Ditto! Welcome back and enjoy the goodness. You were asking in shout about Air Zonk earlier in shout and were surprised that I only payed $20 for it. Don't use eBay as a price guide. :)

Welcome aboard.  After getting Air Zonk, I'd say some five-player Bomberman '93 goodness might be in order.

wb Paul.... I recommend saving up for a CD capable system (and a way to play PC Engine hucards as well - a converter or Japanese system).  There's LOTs of great stuff out there!

Another man saves himself from the depths of Turbo purgatory.  Welcome to the Forums.  I just saw an Air Zonk go on email for under $20.  There are some good deals to be had.

Good luck!

if anyone can lead me to a good deal on Air Zonk I'd appreciate that! I'm going to buy some games here and there along the way, maybe a few a month lol my ultimate goal is to have all 94 Turbo games. Glad to see all the replies, shows that the Turbo still has much deserved support.

Welcome to the forums! November seems to be the month for new recruits. Once BlueBMW sets you up with the fantastic Air Zonk, be prepared to have the music stuck in your head for days!

Oh, and I think there is actually 136 domestic Turbo Grafx releases. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Guys we need to set Paul up with PC Engine City!  All episodes.

Also, do yourself a favor and check out Chris Bucci's reviews on Youtube or Sunteam's PC Engine Bible.

146, actually, according to PCE Daisakusen. Not sure where 94 came from, though....

Is that not including the duplicates like Ys Book I&II, and Bonk 3?
