That is cool.  Having one of those in what we call "The Day" was an absolute status symbol.

The sounds it was making was some sort of generic bleeps and bloops, but he was very excited about getting a touchdown.

Yes, Enemy of the State, they hide the data chip inside of a Turbo Express :)

I want to watch all of Doogie Howser again. Neil Patricks stock went up again for me.

That's what I'm doing right now. I remember enjoying Doogie Howser when I was younger, so I've been going through the series. I don't remember there being this much talk about sex though. I guess when I was younger much of it went over my head.

Just goes to show that the only kids who could afford a TurboExpress back in the day were those getting a doctor's salary...

Yup. Something like that. :(

But it is kool that they actually showed the screen of the actual game.

I remember when I saw the Turbo Express in Enemy of the State, I had a yell at the screen moment because I was so excited just to see that someone else knew Turbografx existed!

I saw Enemy of the State in the theatre and I recall smiling when I saw the TurboExpress.

I was upset when you-know-who died, though.
