I wonder if that "namco 16" thing was them misunderstanding that Namco was making its System 16 arcade hardware??

I don't think it was a misunderstanding (it's possible) but EGM also reported on it, and then like them, linked it to the PC Engine 2.

Electronic Gaming Monthly's early SuperGrafx coverage was also similar.

Something else I wanted to point out, notice how these two articles are very similar in what they're reporting.

EGM #3 September/October 1989

New Computer Express - November 11, 1989

And then the SuperGrafx articles from each, written by the same dude.

Not identical, but some of the same wording. "a quantum leap forward from the old Engine".

Lots of SplatterHouse love going around recently. New Playing with Sacks episode and an awesome HuCard bootleg (https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=20841.msg521306#msg521306) with CD+G soundtrack was produced by Jodi's Turbo Reproductions group. http://youtu.be/WOBBukfz1P4 (https://s5.postimg.cc/mz2pgkkjb/41512468_10156435232446590_3913722170328481792_n.jpg)
