Title: Turbo omitted from Smithsonian's "The Art of Video Games" exhibit
Post by: kazekirifx on April 08, 2012, 02:36:02 PM

This news is getting kind of old now, but it still bothers me a bit.

I would have liked to see more systems included, and I think the genre system they used is also too rigid.

There was a push from members here to get the Turbo in, but to no avail. They left out a lot of commercially unsuccessful systems though it made sense.

Actually, I searched "smithsonian" before posting this topic, but it didn't find anything.
