TurboGrafx-16

has any one ever seen one of these

yesterday i went to a yard sale i saw a TurboGrafx-16 and i asked the guy how much he wanted $1
so i bought it does any one know how rare it is 

[keiffer01]

Well that console came out before the Sega Genesis and the SNES. It is rarer than the other two consoles because many people didn't know what it was and they just decided to keep their money until the SNES or Sega Genesis came out. Turbo-Grapfx 16 has some really good games on it like the Super Bonk series for example. And for 1$ that is a really great find! Last year I also whent to a garage sale and found one brand new NEVER opened for only 5$ And it came packed with a free game.

it is called Keith Courage in Alpha Zones

It isn't very rare, but a game console for 1$ is always a steal. Nice find.

Any chances you'd be willing to sell it? I'd actually like to get into the PC Engine  scene.

no chances sorry

Hey thats a sweet price!
But i must say that the pc engine (the japanese one) has more and better titles. Far as i know but you were crazy if you not bought it

Of course PC Engine is nicer, but that's a given.

I owned a TG-16 for about 2 months. It was nice to have, but it was pretty limiting in terms of accessories (plus the fact that I couldn't find a TG-CD by itself), so I sold it and bought a region modded PC Engine Duo. If you do plan to get into the TG-16/PCE scene, I recommend getting a region modded Duo (doesn't matter which, they're all good), as it saves money and space compared to a TG-CD or PCE-CD setup.

i just got a game for the PC engine so i was wondering if you could play PC engine games on TurboGrafx-16?

1) PCEngine on TG16/Duo:
         HuCard games aren't compatible, but you can buy adapters
         for $20-30 through many mail order places.
