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.

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

Wikipedia.. but if that;s not the case then fine lol

Got the system in the mail today, a little bit nicked up but I'm going to play a little tomorrow and see how it goes. I 4got that it had the big plastic piece on the back. BMW pm sent sir

HuCards only; there's 96 of 'em - 2 system cards = 94.

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

That includes both HuCard and SuperCD versions of Bonk 3; it doesn't count the pack-in version of Ys I & II separately or include Insanity or Meteor Blaster DX - Signature Edition.

I officially have the 14 games now.. I'm pretty happy, I'll be making some time off on my days off. I don't know what it is about this current generation of systems (referring to the 360,Ps3, ect) but I just can't get into them. I'm more of a simple N64 and Turbo kind of guy.

I'm really liking Galaga '90 even though I played it just for a few minutes when I got home from work tonight. The music is a bit quirky but I got to level 6 in just a few minutes lol and like the space invaders feel. Bonk, man I love that dude, I'm not sure why he didn't take off as he's more an appealing mascot to kids than Mario imo. I'll post more thoughts in the coming weeks as I get more into the games.

Feels good to be playing a 16 bit system not named SNES or Genesis

Obeying does feel good. :)

Galaga '90 is high end. Just remember that the blue orbs that you pick up will warp you to a different dimension. The different dimension are also a higher difficulty.

Anyway, glad to see you're enjoying the Turbo.

I just got my first turbo Grafx and my only games are Keith Courage, Dungeon Explorer, Blazing Lazers, and Legendary axe. I was wondering what some good starter games were.

You have them.

You need Bonk, China Warrior, and Parasol Stars asap.

Alright, congratz on getting the Turbografx-16 system again. I also do Turbo reviews on Youtube myself but there's on a cheap camera so don't expect masterpieces. Some of my favourites for the system are Dragon's Curse, Super Star Soldier, Bonk's Revenge, Military Madness, Bomberman 93, Legendary Axe and many more.
