    Haha, sweet! Thanks for the recommendations. Definately want to pick up Bloody Wolf and the legendary Axe games at some point! Also had my eye on WolRd Court Tennis as i heard it was pretty fun and original and I like RPGs! Just picked up 2 more sealed games today actually. I plan on opening em though, just like i did with Aero Blasters. Just trying to get the games in as good of condition as i can! Games are Blazing Lazers & R-Type. I hadn't planned on picking up R-Type yet but Blazing Lazers was next on my list and the guy had both sealed and knocked $70 of his asking price so i didn't wanna pass it up. Both look to be in great shape! Check em out:

    In that case

    Pssst, it's a secret to everyone:

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000FN946S/ref=dp_olp...



    And yes, it's legit, I have one from the seller. Nothing like $10 sealed game



     

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



    How do you tell if a sealed TG16 box is legit?  Is there an H seam?



    On topic, my favorites on the system are Devil's Crush, Parasol Stars, and Ninja Spirit.



     

    In this case it was a known seller, and if you bought 6, you got the cardboard box.  So not many people are going to fake all that for $10, when the game sells for more loose on ebay.



     
  • Ive had a growing interest in the past few months for a Turbo. The library of games for the console looks stellar. Hopefully get one one of these days here. Ive been having a hankering to explore a new console....

    I'm in the same boat, really, but it's hard to justify the cost right now, when I still have a bunch of other consoles I'm working on. Someday, though. Someday.

    This was totally me over the last couple years. I say once your satisfied with your collections for other systems dive into Turbo. I mainly did it because ive really been into shoot em ups these past few years.
  • @ dqualls when you get the chance get the CD add on or equivalents there are a whole boatload of import shumps to play. And also get the Arcade system card because it essentially negates the need for a system card 3.0 and you get to play neo geo ports and my favorite shooter sapphire.

    I know, I need a Duo in my life!
    Really want to get Spriggan and others!
  • No worries dsqaulls you'll get one soon enough but when you do get into Turbografx 16 CD gaming it's a whole different story and it will be shooters galore. I still think IMO Sapphire is a better game than spriggan not only because it came out late in the life of the system but it reminds me of a psyiko made shooter and I like psyiko shooters.
  • I'm about to pull the trigger on a PC Engine with a recapped CD add-on. I've been researching the system's library and I'm pretty excited! I've also budgeted a copy of Dracula X, just since that game has been my grail for...15 years?



    (A lot of my renewed interest came from reading this thread, BTW, so thanks! )

    Sapphire is pretty sweet! I dont know if i could stomach paying the asking price right now though. Plus i hear theres alot of fakes floating around. So unless i can get it from a reputable source for a decent price i dont know if i'll end up getting that one. I did pick up one of the PC Engine Best collections for PSP a while ago which has it on it so at least i can play it, just not on Turbo in all its glory!

    Sweet! im glad i can help inspire someone else to take the plunge! I also want to get Dracula X! I joined PCEngineFX and hear a guy named Keith Courage there sells recapped Duos for a decent price so i think ima try and get ahold of em as soon as i has the extra cash!



    Side note, my bundle of 6 games will be here today!!  

    Will take some before and after pics when i open em!
  • I love my duo and recently got a Turbo express. One of the things I love about the system is with the shooters is how it rarely it slows down. I had a turbo and the CD as a kid and just recently got back into it so only a few games so far.



    It pains me to see the prices of some of the games but a lot of them are actually excellent games. One of my favorites being Beyond Shadowgate.



    Great to see some turbo fans on here.

    Nice! I havnt actually talked with him yet, someone just recommended I hit em up 4 a duo!
  • You are right dqualls I too would not pay those crazy prices for sapphire but there is the issue of the Turbografx 16 being Region Free and the ability to play burned copies mostly without issues. I still get to play all those games without paying an arm and a leg only from a gamers stand point not so much collector's.
  • Just got the bundle of games! Updated the original post with a pic! everythings sealed but i plan on busting into em tonight!

    Looks like you're ready for some Bomberman parties. Hope you've got a few retro-minded friends.

    Is the R-Type you got the CD-remix version with all the levels, or the earlier version where they broke the levels across two Hu-cards?

    I believe it's the complete r-type, I read it only got split into 2 parts in Japan and the us Hu Card was the complete version. Havnt busted into it yet though. was just on my lunch. Think I may need to try and sneak outta here early though, lol. Yeah, have a few friends who are pretty into retro gaming. My girlfriend actually gets down on these games quite a bit. She's a bigger fan of bomberman than i am and actually kicks my ass at Saturn Bomberman all the time my multitap hasn't showed up yet though. Should be here in the next few days though.
  • Magic trick!



    Now They're Sealed!

    Now They're Not!

    Sweet collection man!.can't wait to get a Duo!
    Nice name 2! Love me some Suikoden!
  • Turbo is my favorite system. There really aren't many bad games. Obviously, you like shooters so you'll be right at home. Here's part of my Turbo collection:



  • How much did you end up getting bomberman 93 for OP?



    that game is pretty pricey

    Amazing collection of games there man!
    Definately love them shooters! Excited to jump into some Turbo CD action! Spriggan is calling my name!
  • Double post, my bad
  • Just beat all my highscores in Soldier Blade!
  • Here's my set. I've always felt that the TG-16 has a loose controller port, at least that's how it feels on my console.



    I only have two games which is Keith Courage and Legendary Axe... well 4 if you count 2 reproductions (Rondo of Blood English Translation hack ripped from the PSP version and a port of the NES Megaman with CD-audio remixes):







  • Dope stuff bounce! Where'd you find the Mega Man?

    It's a conversion hack/port of the orignal game which I found here and just made it into a disc:

    The Castlevania one is an english translation. Video here:
