[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Turbo Express -my Grail]

Been dreaming about having one since being a kid and seeing the commercials and the ads in the game mags.

Local shop just got it yesterday and I scooped immediately. One owner and no scratches. Just needs a cleaning and an audio recap.

Any suggestion where to buy a trust worthy AC adapter? And a cap kit?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / FOUND: PCE controller]

FOUND

Just randomly snagged a PCE Duo-R and it should be here later this week.
...but of course it doesn't come with anything.

Anyone have an extra controller they want to sell? $20 a reasonable price?

Also if someone has a cheap AV cable that would rock too. Else I'll probably just make one.

[NEC Console Resource / Hello, yes i'm a noobie]

Hey guys, I'll go ahead and get it out of the way and say i'm a complete noobie to PCE.

Last month I tried to buy a turbografx w/ boost from a local shop. It was missing the power and a controller. So the shop owner asked that I come back when he had everything, but of course it was gone the next time I came it. So now, i'm just researching and trying to figure out what system I really want. Which so far i've been told repeatedly to grab a DUO-R (guess I need to save up)

I'm a gamer (not a collector). Have good many of the systems from the 80 and 90's, but as a kid I never played or had a Turbografx-16. Like many others I dreamed of playing those awesome games listed in the mags of the time. I still remember those Ys CD ads. I even did one of those Bonk challenge where they asked kids to draw the next game's cover. Can't believe I never received a response back lol

If you think i'm just a leech or anything feel free to check my alias at NeoGeo or Klov. I'm not hugely active, but I'm also not grabbing or selling systems/games left and right.

i'm not sure how much new info I can add to the forum discussion, but i'll definitely try as I soak up everything

On a side note, i'm also a hacker, builder, maker (whatever term you want to call it). A few years ago I even sold off some of my arcade stuff to help fund building my first 3d printer.

later,
