It's been a year since I've been to Game Trade, but I'm sure they have Turbo stuff.

400 Reid St, De Pere, WI 54115
This place also had an amazingly large selection of systems and games. I would be surprised if he didn't have some Turbo stuff.

I am definitely a gamer. Maybe I'm a gamer with collector tendencies? For example, if I stumbled across a box of games for $20 at a garage sale or thrift store, I would pick them up.
On the other hand, at MGC I had a great time looking around at the sales tent and could have picked up Little Samson and Surprise at Dino Peak but no game is worth $400/$500+ dollars to me (unless it were a full size Ms. Pacman or Elevator Action!). I ended up only picking up Zillion for SMS and Sword of Vermilion for Genesis.
I am way too much of a cheapskate to even attempt to collect the R@REZ.

Hello all!
As is customary, I thought I would throw together an introduction post.
I've been an on again off again game player/collector since the 90s however I sold most of my stuff back in 2007 when I thought I was done with this whole video game thing. Then, in 2010, someone gave me an NES along with a small pile of games which reignited the collecting/playing spirit. Many, many, many, games and consoles later, here I am.
I recently got into TG16 collecting after getting to play a bunch of TurboGrafx at the Midwest Gaming Classic. After a few SHMUPS I knew I had to get one. Since finding a TG16/Duo in the wild or even at my local gaming stores is pretty much impossible, I resorted to eBay and picked up a TG16 with Pac-Land. The RF that shipped with it was an NES RF adapter (that didn't actually work) so I ended up modding two USB header pins and a set of composite A/V cables to allow for composite video which has worked well.
Since then, I have picked up Kieth Courage and Final Lap Twin (Quest mode has me totally intrigued, though I haven't been able to win a single race).
I anticipate that collecting for this system will go slow due to the higher prices of games, so I'm looking to be a bit selective about what I pick up and try to get things that I'll actually, you know, play.
