TurboGrafx-16
1989-08-29
The TurboGrafx-16, known as the PC Engine outside North America, is a fourth-generation home video game console designed by Hudson Soft and sold by NEC Home Electronics. It was the first console marketed in the fourth generation of game consoles, commonly known as the 16-bit era, though the console has an 8-bit central processing unit (CPU). It was released in Japan in 1987 and in North America in 1989. In Europe, the console is known as the PC Engine, after the Japanese model was imported and distributed in the United Kingdom and France from 1988. In Japan, the system was launched as a competitor to the Famicom, but the delayed United States release meant that it ended up competing with the Sega Genesis and later the Super NES.
The only people who had this were the rich kids. I had a friend who had every system and when he showed me this weird thing in his room one day and we started playing Bonk I was blown away. It looked cool, the games were different and kinda awesome. If you never played any games on the TG16, do yourself a favor and look some up.
Better than the sega and the nes. If nintendo didn't block so many publishers from working with nec I think we'd still be playing some form of this system.
I was one of the six people to buy this at launch, I thought forget the Genesis or SNES this was where it was at. I mean it Blazing Lazers and Splatterhouse and well that was about it. It was a terrible decision and a waste of snow shoveling money. I'm ashamed of myself
