Are you talking about like peripherals and accessories, or add-ons to like console hardware?

I love the SegaCD/MegaCD personally as the library is super-underrated as most people think the games are just crappy FMV titles. 

When it comes to peripherals I like light gun games so that is at the top of my list.  I've also enjoyed playing with the XE-1AP analog controller with games that support it.

It could be both. What ever floats your boat

Bonk Head for Acemore Freedom 16

Has anyone ever even witnessed its existence? A page in the back of a strat guide is all anyone has to go on.

Another great one is the PCE controller extension cord.  I came across one of those and can't wait to see how much it goes for on eBay!

D'oh!

I would say the Turbografx-CD add-on.  I only own one game right now.  But looking at the library, it has some of the best CD games of the era, even better than the Sega CD (obviously better than the Atari Jaguar CD) in my opinion.  I'm bidding on Castlevania Dracula X right now.  I hope to get it for a decent price. 

The second peripheral I love is the NES Advantage.  You know, the "arcade joystick" for the NES.  It just felt really good in my hands and incredibly responsive.  It also adds a new dimension and play style to all my favorite games for the system.

Highjacking my own thread BUT

Is there a cable for the PC Engine that would allow you to use US controllers on a Japan system?

or visa versa?

There's an official US converter cable for using TG-16 controllers on a TurboDuo, which has the same mini-DIN socket as all PCE systems.  Though it'd obviously be the same thing but with different packaging, I've never seen such an official cable for the Japan market.
