Title: First TG score in 2 years!
Post by: Crabmaster2000 on April 10, 2011, 11:25:58 PM
I've had my TG and a measly 3 games for nearly 2 years without finding anything new for it. On a trip out of town my brother-in-law snuck me out to some flea markets and I found:

Alien Crush
Bonk's Adventure
Legendary Axe II
Raiden
Silent Debuggers
Splatterhouse
Tiger Road

Everything had the manuals, cases, Hu Cards and Sleeves. Paid $100 for the lot, but I was happy to do so since its so rare that I see any TG stuff. Also grabbed a Turbo Grafx Secrets Guide Book for $2 at another flea market the following day. Cant wait to dig into them!

Wow, nice wild find.  Not a bad price either.

Got to play a few of them last night. Seems like they are all decent games.

I dont know if I really got Silent Debuggers so I'm gonna have to play it some more and see if I can figure it out though.

Legendary Axe II was a lot of fun, but the last stage I got to was crazy hard. Robots everywhere.

Also really enjoyed Tiger Road.

They rest were all solid, but I was already expecting them to be. Those 3 I singled out above I didnt really know anything about. I'm also lucky enough to have 2 more TG games coming in the mail from a trade. R-Type and Battle Royale. Really getting my TG juices flowing.

Wow congrats on that great find, especially being in the wild. Yeah Legendary Axe II is A+, def one of my faves for sure. I will never forget my first TG-16 score/haul, granted it was like 8 years ago, and it only got bested by a sweet haul a few years later for half the price, but I will always remember it. Hauls like this really truly dont come around too much anymore, even at retro game shows/coventions.

That's pretty sweet!  I'd love to find TG games in the wild.  Even if I already had the titles, I'd probably pick them up just to say I was able to find some games in the wild (but they'd have to be decently priced).
