Even though it is a small set it took me a long time to get a copy of all 94 North American released games. Just a few still missing manuals that I would like to upgrade to CIC copies. 

Game Room is nearly setup so I'm excited to dive right into the library and enjoy the fruits of years of collecting Turbografx 16!!

Congrats, man! That's quite the accomplishment! How long did it take you? What's the one you had the hardest time finding or the one with the best story?

Took about a decade since it was always secondary to the NES search. Legend of the Hero Tonma was definitely the hardest one to find. I left it until late so the price got up there, but beyond that finding a copy with at least the manual (I ended up with a CIB) was a huge pain. Lots of leads to nothing until one finally showed up and it took 6 months off bugging the guy to finally get pics and make a deal.

Nice collection. Condition looks good as well. I definately enjoy my Tg collection. Grafx took a while to really get up there in price but it's finally reached it and I'm sure prices aren't done climbing for cib games.

Congrats! This is no small feat in my book. Going to go for a Turbografx-CD set/Super CD-ROM/Super CD-ROM2 set?


Were there any games that were surprisingly hard to come by? (other than the 19 or so HuCards that didn't come with cases)


You'll have fun with this library, I'm only halfway to a full set and it's been a blast playing TG-16. Soldier Blade is so good. It's tough but it's one of my all-time favorite shooters. Both Neutopia games are fun Zelda 1 clones.

I'm about halfway with the Turbo CD stuff around so I'll definitely keep plugging away at that end too.

Congrats... I'm just missing 1 to complete my set (grr Magical Chase).
(Know anyone selling one for a decent price, cart and manual?)

I would have to agree Legend of Hero Tonma was the hardest for me to find.

As far as the Turbo CDs, I am on the same boat, I am about halfway there.

It is a fun adventure...

Got any of these for sale? Sell them to me. I also buy other NES Publisher inserts, and even GB/GBC, and SNES inserts too.

Dang! That's commitment! Nice work in tracking that down! Very impressive work.

Damn that's cool. Nice!

I always remember going over to my friends house and playing this magical system. Bonk's Adventure was mind blowing!

I've played about a third of them so far. Moved close to a year ago and things have been packed up so I've fallen way behind. Just now Im in the process of unpacking everything so I can play again.

Judas Priest is the greatest band of all time!!

^ that was not lost on me. Not the correct artwork for the album though. Just on the re-release which the band has nothing to do with. I own both of those (album and game). Apparently a book used that jmage for the cover as well
