List of Stores That Sell Turbo Games

[KingDrool]

I thought it might be cool to try to make a map of stores around the country that sell TurboGrafx/Duo games.  If you have one in your area, please click the link below and add it to the map.  In the comments, please add the store's approximate location (ex: corner of Main and Grand, in strip mall) and the relative size of their Turbo selection.

I added Cedar Cliff Collectibles.  Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to allow one person to add more than one location.  If you figure it out, let me know.  In the meantime, if someone from the Twin Cities could add Toy 'Riffic in Maplewood (near the Maplewood Mall, small selection), and Discland in Bloomington (off 94th and 35W, rarely carries Turbo games), I'd appreciate it.

Maybe if we get enough entries on here Keranu or Aaron could sticky this post?

Thanks!

i think there should be a limit on what counts as 'sells turbografx games'; i think some Gamers (local old game chain that I hate) have, like, 3 or 4 hucards. and 2 of them are keith courage.

I live in WA and there used to be this GREAT store in Redmond, WA called FamCom Games. The owner was a huge Turbo nut. Half the store was filled with Turbo stuff. SuperGrafxes, Japanes hardware, Duos, etc. And don't get me started on the games. The store closed around 2003 and I have no idea what happened to him, or his inventory. Sad deal, really, there is not another store in the state to my knowledge that has any Turbo stuff at all.

[Keranu]

I set the topic as sticky for 'ya, good thread.

The best place for Turbo games that I know of near the Chicago area is Video Games Etc..., ran by video game collector Sean Kelley. It's not a paradise for Turbo games, but it has certainly made improvements in Turbo selection over the past year. Last time I was there they had a bunch of PCE HuCard imports as well as Super Grafx games in nice condition. For American games it's the typical Turbo games you might find at stores; World Class Baseball, Power Golf, that Volleyball game, etc... though last time I was there he added a few new Turbo Chip games that came with the cardboard box, so I'm hoping he'll have more. Definitely a place worth checking out, especially for retro games in general. It's located in Norridge, Illinois, I'll add the address later.

It would be even better if people would add some stores to the map!   

[torgo]

I wish that I knew of some.

I just stopped there last Friday, and the selection was pretty bleak. Some New in Box OLD games (World Court Tennis etc.) Also, only a few PCE Hu Cards like Parodius and Street Fighter 2:CE ($20 though, in the case) Most of the prices were a tad high though, and the Saturn and Jaguar selection was pretty weak as well. Nice place though. I saw quite a few classic systems that I wanted to buy.

[KingDrool]

Seriously...if you have a store in your area that sells turbo games, please add it.  It'd be cool to know where they are when we're traveling around the country.

[Black Tiger]

Basically, if a store that carries Turbo stuff gets on the map and isn't a rip off, it won't be a Turbo selling store anymore. 

[Jammaniaclord]

I now live in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, but i lived in Sharon, Pennsylvania for 5 years, and in Pennsylvania all my life, and there was this really cool gu named Mark, that owned this chain of used/new, buy/sell/trade movie and game store called Splitstone Entertainment, and he started carrying old-butt turbo-grafx games. I always found some cool old-butt retro stuff there, and he always made me deals on stuff, like one time he gave me like 60 Sega C.D games because they never sold. LOL! It wasn't long after that the retro-craze kicked in, and he started selling them. you should check his site to see if he might have anything. I left in September of '05, and his selection was really small on tg-16 games then, but since then, college kids might have told their moms/dads to get rid of anyting they might have stored in their attic/closets since they left home, and brought out some special imports.


Give it a spin.  http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=86664017

[DragonmasterDan]

The other place I know of in the Chicago area to add to Keranu's post is Gamerz Garage in Westmont Illinois on Cass avenue.

[SNKNostalgia]

Too bad I can't help on this. The only stores I knew of was EB Games back in 1991-92 in Fajardo, Puerto Rico when my dad was stationed there. That is where I got my Cadash and Final Lap Twin. I still remember the wall and seeing Lords of Thunder and wishing I had $350 to get it with the CD-ROM drive, damn.

I got a kick out of this, some old game trading store in Laurel, MS has one TG-16 system with the volleyball game and it is selling for $90. HAHA, I almost wanted to have them call their manager to come down so I could throw it at his face.

Hey another Seattle peep   I live in Bellevue, and there is another place that sells TG stuff (they had a Duo last time I checked) called Pink Godzilla in Chinatown.  Their website is www.pinkgodzillagames.com.  I bought some TG games from them when they first opened, but I don't know if they have any games in stock now as there is nothing on their website....

[ceti alpha]

About a month ago I was searching online for Turbo games and discovered that there was actually a store here in Halifax/Dartmouth, Nova Scotia that sold Turbo merchandise. All they have at the moment are one used copy of Andre Panza Kick Boxing and one used copy of Victory Run for $20 each. But they will do special orders . Check their prices for special orders. Some are super expensive for games that are hardly worth it, but some more rare and/or better games seem quite reasonable. I would like to know if the games are "complete with box", or what. They also sell at a local flea market. I'm going to have to check it out and talk to them. I might even grab those two games. 

I posted the store on the map as well. 

[Necromancer]

Ouch!  Their prices suck goat wang, considering their comment on the condition of items (may or may not have a case, may or may not have a manual, may or may not be dipped in poo, etc.).  Even the dreaded ebay should yield equal or better prices - without having to gamble on the quality (from reputable sellers anyway).
