Title: Mikey finally gets a TG16 system of his own!
Post by: MotoRoaderMike on March 02, 2007, 08:26:43 AM

I found some guy selling one online for $89.99. I bought it from him, and I bought these games from other sellers:

Moto Roader*
Victory Run*
Keith Courage*
Splatterhouse*
Fantasy Zone
and Aero Blasters

The asterik indicates that that particular title comes with box and instructions! This is gonna be cool! I never actually owned a TG16 in the past, and the only way I could play the games was on emulators and on the VC.

Congratulations! I wonder if you are the first dude who has bought a TG16 because of the Virtual Console? By the way, not to upset anything, but $89.99 seems quite expensive for a regular TG16 unit. Is it new or came with any games? Oh and enjoy the games you bought, those are some cool ones.

My compliments on the new setup.  You've got a nice start to your collection, except for Moto Roader (I hear it really sucks).  <-- Joking

Congrabulations! As I'm sure you're soon to find out, playing the games with a real Turbopad is a lot more fun.  :)

And Aeroblasters is one of the very best TG-16 games.  8)

Congrats on the purchase, man.  Keith Courage, Fantasy Zone, and Victory Run were also in my first batch of Turbo games back in '89.  And Splatterhouse and Aero Blasters are definitely great games.

Enjoy!

And don't hesitate to ask us what a reasonable price for hardware / software is. We have to help each other out :).
