Hi guys (and maybe gals), I'm new here and wanted to say hi. I'm in Hawaii, but originally from the East Coast. The TurboGrafx 16 was the first system I purchased for myself in 1989, and years later I sold it, and still regret it to this day! This Christmas I told my g/f that I wanted a Turboeverdrive and I went out and hunted myself down a TG16 with CDROM attachment. All cables and a turbo tap with 1 extra controller for $290 shipped. Probably overpaid, as the CDROM does not work, but I ordered a gear off eBay and I'm going to start the repairs there.
Just wanted to chime in and say hi, and Happy Holidays everyone.
Welcome! Did you get the everdrive yet?
Welcome aboard! Good luck with getting 'er fixed up and have fun!
Welcome, comrade. :)
I wish you A Very TurboXMAS.
Welcome! The gear is an easy fix and usually all that's wrong with it if everything turns on and you get a picture. We hope to hear more about your turbo story and what your favorite games are. (OwO)/
Welcome to Pcenginefx!
Thank you everyone. I still have not received the Everdrive. He said he's mailing it today so should be here in about five days I just got a memory card and I'm going to work on cleaning up the turbo today to run it when I gets here. I'm considering buying a Duo from a member here, but will likely hold off a little until I get some gaming under my belt. I know this is probably sacrilege for many here but I'm hoping for an HDMI mod for the duo to come out. Back on the mainland I do have a CRT that I can use but here in Hawaii I'm restricted to just one LCD TV and I would like to get HDMI quality out of one of my systems. Something like the Hi DEF NES would be perfect for the TurboGrafx, do you guys think I'm crazy?
You are crazy to expect someone to come up with HDMI for the PCE. You are better off RGB modding and get a frameister or ossc.

Why do you think that? The guy doing the HDMI for Dreamcast is the one who said he was close. Didn't his DC mod come out?
I haven't heard anything about that.
EDIT: I forgot about that Upergrafx. It still costs more than the Frameister. Seems silly to buy that when you can get the frameister or OSSC for less and use it with every system.
I agree about the Upergrafx, also it doesn't have and HDMI port, it needs an adapter and of course it wouldn't work with a Duo. Still, I'd like to know what it has inside, and if it really should cost that much.
Welcome Aboard!

Thanks! I still haven't gotten everything up and running yet, still doing cleaning and repairs, but when my Everdrive is here and working, I'll post some TG16 porn for you guys..
Welcome
Welcome! Please send me sunshine. I am freezing cold.
