Title: WTB: Ys Book I & II and 3-in-1 Turbo Duo pack in games, preferably loose
Post by: MJongo on April 23, 2011, 05:00:02 AM

Hello, I have been waiting to get their hands on a TurboGrafx since I first discovered its games on the Wii Virtual Console.  I am very excited to say that as of a garage sale stop yesterday, I am a proud owner of a working Turbo Duo in excellent condition!  Unfortunately, the system I got only came with a few TurboChips (Final Lap Twin, TV Sports Basketball, and TV Sports Football), and I at least want the two CDs that originally came with the console:

I don't care if they have the manuals or original cases or anything, just as long as they will play and don't have too many scratches.  However, I do want both to be the pack-in versions with the CD art shown in the image provided (apparently the stand-alone Ys disc looks different), just because I'm kind of obsessive-compulsive about having the "original set".

congrats on picking up a duo at a garage sale! I always hope to find something like that when I stop at them.

You wouldn't believe how excited I was when I saw it!  They wanted 20 bucks, so I paid up and left before any of the vultures in my area showed up.  Definitely one of the top 2 video game finds I ever had (the other being a $10 NES R.O.B. complete with Gyromite and Stack-Up).

Hopefully, your system will be functional 100%.  But, its still not a bad idea to get with one of the guys here to have your system serviced.  Ya cant beat the price, I am actually f*ckin jealous!!  lol

Congrats!  :dance: The only stuff TG16 related that I found in the wild was Sonic Spike (Complete) in a thrift store. I found a bunch of stuff  in the classifieds but it's not the same.
