SimEarth.

And it's as if they want to permanently push away anyone who is remotely interested in exploring the TG-16 library.

Or, maybe, just maybe, they have fallen victim to their impressive marketing from yesteryear:

Reports! (http://archives.tg-16.com/archive-four/TF-04-16.jpg) Look in the lower-right-hand corner. I am thunderstruck. Reports, woohoo!

"It's kinda like being God, except the graphics are better." (http://archives.tg-16.com/duo_world_0001.htm#t29) Hell yeah.

"Finally, it's here. One of the most popular computer simulations has arrived for the TurboGrafx... (http://archives.tg-16.com/archive-four/TF-03-07.jpg) I'm in!

Seconded- I for one would love to see all five supergrafx titles brought over to VC- since.. uh.. I don't have a supergrafx :?

SimEarth = fail. I have zero desire to play it on the real hardware- let alone on VC.

Also weird that they ported the TG version considering this game came out for the SNES.
