[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / TurboGrafx-16 Collecting with Dad in the 90's]

Hey guys! Some of you are aware of the series I produce, "My Retro Life", which uses old home movie clips of my collecting days in the 90s.

Well, the latest episode (link above) in the series is all on the TurboGrafx, and more specifically, tells the story of how I came to own and collect for my TurboDuo in 1995.

It is with great joy that I get to share these memories with you, the hardcore Turbo fans. Hope you enjoy!

but right now the pinball game I've been playing the most is Lost Gladiators (SS).

Good choice, I love almost all the Saturn pinball games!

Ever played Kyuutenkai Fantastic Pinball?

I had actually not heard of this game until now. Looking into it. Thanks for posting.

Oh it's "fantastic" - quite literally! - I hope you were able to check it out. I still immensely enjoy it's wacky anime style meets medieval pinball aesthetic!

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: Looking to sell my Camp California. Any idea on value?]

Just list it on eBay and provide us a link so we can eagerly watch it blossom to $$$.

Here you go: http://www.ebay.com/itm/122028925974

If you guys know anyone who might be interested, please PM / let them know!

Thanks guys.

Thank you.

I am eagerly watching the auction.

UPDATE: I don't see the limited edition bonus soundtrack  for Camp California (this is an essential item for maximizing $$$)...

 

A "Beach Boys"-branded papier-mâché surfboard containing: Camp California game + soundtrack = Mega$$$

Haha I wish I owned it. I never did, but remember seeing it advertised on back of the manual. Big Beach Boys fan here. Would have been a great companion piece.

[General Gaming / Game Freak's second game Jerry Boy / Smart Ball]

Hey guys! A while back I posted my retrospective on Air Zonk and Super Air Zonk. Well I'm continuing that series with a Super Nintendo entry - the notorious Jerry Boy (Smart Ball in the US)

This was Game Freak's second video game after Mendel Palace on the NES, and it's always been a favorite ever since I owned the Japanese original. I was SHOCKED to find out the US localization had removed the game's entire storyline! Sad really.

Marc from "My Life in Gaming" joins me in the discussion. Hope you enjoy the video. Feedback GREATLY appreciated. Thanks guys.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Air Zonk and Super Air Zonk Retrospective]

Hello TURBO fans! My name is Tyler and I run a YT channel and website called iretrogamer.com (formerly Sega Channel).

I know this is my first post here, but I'd really love to share with you the Air Zonk / Super Air Zonk retrospective we released recently. It's the first episode of our rebranded "VH1" style documentary show Game Scan TV. Previously we were an all SEGA channel but we've recently rebranded so we can talk about all the retro games we love, including the TurboGrafx-16.

Here's a link to the video:

I hope you guys enjoy the retrospective. Feedback is greatly appreciated. Air Zonk is absolutely one of my most favorite shooters. I actually have quite a fondness for Super Air Zonk as well.

I'm looking forward to being apart of this community here. So many awesome memories with my TG16 and Duo. Thanks guys!
