I was just thinking, that was a pretty kick ass system in my youth. Anyone remember it? it wasn't around long, i don't think, but it had Bonk dammit. The caveman with the big fucking head who ate meat & headbutted things.

I had one, but of course I could never find a copy of bonk. I was stuck with legendary axe 2, some LAME basketball game, and keith courage in the alpha zones. Fear keith courage and his ever expanding in length light sword thingy! Because remember, the world has been taken over by aliens, but the few survivors still charge you cash for help!

I remember it, but I never knew anyone who actually had one.

 

The only thing I remember about it is that it didn't have cartridges like Nintendo or Sega.

Yeah, I have both a TG-16 and a TurboExpress. A little wrestling game called Battle Royale sold me on it. Having five wrestlers on-screen at once seemed like such a huge deal.

I knew a buddy who had Turbo Grafix -- I liked my Genesis better...

That was the only system to do Splatterhouse right. Devil's Crush was a great pinball game. Bonk was cool. And Keith Courage was cool.

 

I liked the system, had one when I was younger.

The TG-16 was indeed the only console to see the first Splatterhouse, but its two sequels both appeared on the Genesis.

 

Wonder if Namco will ever do another. Been rumored about for years.

It was the 1st system to use the CD, I think. The greatest Castlevania Dracula X is on it and is a bitch to burn.

It is the only console to have Street Fighter II'(AKA: Street Fighter II Champion Edition).

I had it....

The scream on Battle Royale was very funny at that time.

When you eliminated someone.....they just gave the most horrific sounding scream. Its that stock scream thats been used in movies before.
