Check out http://www.tg16pcemods.com/  the guy goes by Turbokon on here.   Not sure if he's taking new mod work, or has any items for sale.  But certainly worth asking him.

My GoT copy mentioned above is sold.  Updating as a number of people expressed interest.

@syphic

Yeah, never thought of it.  Just get the OCD itch once in awhile to complete some of these loose hueys.
#5
These are for NA games .. so prefer NA manuals.   I'm not as picky with my PCE stuff.  Guess I'll focus there later once I get my TG16 collection in order  ;-)

I just acquired a duplicate in a TG16 lot I bought.  PM me, and see if we can workout a price.

PMd, have loose duplicate of GoT 4in1 disc (and could toss in Bonks Revenge manual)

update (Game is now SOLD)

I just picked up a loose/empty PCE Engine Briefcase IFU-30, and went to slot in my PC Engine (white) and found the same Power supply for the PCE console itself won't work on the Briefcase (I guess because it would have to power both devices). 

Is there another console with a compatible power supply ? Doesn't seem any of the Genesis Model 1 or 2 will work.  The one from my SuperGrafx or PC  Engine (white) doesn't work.

So question from a "PCE-newb", where would I find a good power supply for this Briefcase.  Anyone selling one, or can point me to a website that is.   I will hit up google for some research, but just figured someone here can likely answer off the top of their head.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Okay. Well I passed along the link.  Dudes name is Pete D, and he runs a large www.VGCC.ca Game Swap up this way, and works with a lot of local Retailers in an effort to keep things as friendly as possible. ;-)  Same dude that hooked me up with my CIB TG16 CD-rom.
#11
Any chance you would consider shipping to Canada ? as I have a good buddy, someone who helps out a lot of people in the Retro Gaming community up here in Toronto, Canada that might be interested. I can also see if he might have access to a US based PO Box .. as I know some folks take that route. I gave him the link to this post.
#12
That has to be the shiniest TE i've ever seen. Did you lube the damn thing up ?
#13
Shipment in from Bernie yesterday, and shipment in from Jodi (Brraap) today.  Now just need to wait for him to do Godzilla and Japanese Rondo case art.

Merry early Christmas to ME !!!!  Thanks Bernie and everyone that made the distribution of these PCE Memories discs to this forum possible. Thanks to NightWolve  and anyone involved in this, or other translations work .. it's greatly appreciated.  And Thanks to Jodi for the great cases, and that gem of a PC Engine CIB that can be seen in the background.

Quote from: Bernie on 12/08/2015, 04:21 PMAlright guys, Jimilee pulled a name last night. 

elderbroom.....you got em!  PM me with your mailing info.  :) 

Thanks again to EVERYONE that contributed to this.  We will do something similar with other batches. 
Hello Bernie,

I already bought batch 1 & 2 from you .. expecting batch 2 to arrive likely tomorrow.   But what I will do with this set, assuming you are okay to give me a second set.   A local gamer buddy helped me out big the other day, when my furnace was acting up, when I had a house full of relatives over the weekend. He's a HVAC technician by trade, and he dropped what he was doing and helped me out on a Sunday to get heat going again (I'm in Canada, it's been near freezing out).  He won't accept cash for this gesture,  but I did turn him onto TG16 about 6-8 months ago and I know he recently got a Duo-R.  I will gift these to him for as a Thank-you for his good deed.  He's a standup dude, and I can assure you they will remain with him. Let me know if that works for you
#16
PM'd. All aboard for batch 2. Huge thanks to everyone making this possible.
** updated, as payment sent.  thanks again **
#17
I'd like to enter.

I am thankful for my family, friends and the freedoms we are afforded.
#18
Very cool of you Bernie. Just when I thought we couldn't love you any more. $20 coming your way for some raffle tickets.

Thanks to everyone involved in this effort .. and a special thanks to NightWolve for all the blood, sweat and tears put into that effort. We appreciate it.
#19
Not sure his uid on this forum. But Jodi Whetham is making cases and manuals for these games.  You can find him commenting in the main Facebook Group "Turbob XPress".  Quality looks great, and price is solid.  Mind you he is in Canada .. so will be more costly shipping to the US for some of you.
#20
I was eager to get my TG16 at launch. Picked it up from Radio Shack (in Canada) with two additional launch titles.  Loved that system, talked two other buddies into getting one .. and my local video rental store into carrying games for rental (not sure that worked out well for them).  But then like most other consoles it eventually got sold at a yard sale. Assuming I was raising funds to build a gaming PC.  Anyway reacquired a TG16 just after graduating college (so 16 years ago).  It was only in the last 3 years that I started collecting heavily and grabbed a SuperGrafx, PC Engine Duo-R, PCE GT, and Turbo Express. So my jump into PC Engine games is fairly recent.
#21
My shipment arrived today .. north of the border.  Thanks again Bernie, and everyone else helping with this effort. This was really the only scenario in which I would acquire these repros.  Looking forward to the next round.

I dropped you a PM on 10/31.  I know you are likely getting inundated with requests. But wanted to followup incase you missed it completely.  I'd love to have one of each .. I'm in Canada and can quickly Paypal upfront. Or e-Transfer whatever you prefer.  Let me know.   Thanks

Chris
As stated Bernie has seen every PM. :) He's taking care of established members first. Patience grasshopper.
Sorry missed that. My bad.  I'll patiently wait in queue  ;-)  Thanks

In Canada anyway .. they started backing in Bonk's Revenge CIC, and then just Keith Courage HuCard and Manual.  And there were some extra Bonk's related inserts.

This is on the regular TG16 console ... not the later TurboDuo with Gates 4-in-1.

#26
That was my understanding also .. but I have some buddy's with "poster envy"  ;-)   I want to track down the inserts that came later when Bonks was a pack-in/bundled-in game.  Or the cardstock that they simply stuck over the front of the standard box.  Never really see it up my way (Toronto, Canada)
#27
Okay, so I finally tracked down a TG16 pack-in poster that was missing from my not so complete boxed console I picked up ~15 years ago.

I recalled having this with the new console, I got on launch day and my local Canadian Radio Shack.  So that nostalgic part of me, just had to get one back.

I want to settle some discussion with some fellow gamers/collectors.  I am under the impression that this 25x30" pack in poster came in each and every TG16 console sold (at least in North America)

Can someone advise if at any time they stopped shipping NA TG16 consoles with this poster.

I am referencing the following poster.

I want to be entered

Would gladly cover shipping upto the great white north !
#29
please please ... I'd consider it a birthday present for my 39th (damn I'm old) that is coming on Oct 18th.  And since I can't afford the TG16 version .. happy to be collecting for PCE instead.    so please, please add me

CD games are region free. So if you have a TG16 with CD add on, or a Turbo Duo you can play all the PCE CD based games without any mod required.  And PCE Japanese versions of most games, are much  much cheaper.
#32
Can you please include me in the raffle.   Don't think I've played this since I rented it with a buddy when we were teenagers.  (ah .. those were the days)
#33
Thanks Sparky for the wicked raffle. I still need to spin up and get a label set, and some reprint manuals from you sometime soon.  Glad to see it go to Bernie.  Both of you were two of the main guys to be so welcoming when I got back into Obey gaming and collecting again about 2 years back.   
#34
I need Baseball .. but I'm in Canada. Let me know if that disqualifies me.
#35
Please add me.   

also I'll be in Vegas 10/21 - 10/30 on business.  Are there any shops that I should check out ?   Wish the Canadian dollar wasn't hurting soo much ..   Congrats on the 1 year, and kudos on the raffle !
#36
Can you please add me to the raffle.

Amazing, I've been wanting to pickup one of these in Canada.  I would have bought this had it been for sale, knowing you are local.  Major kudos on the raffle.

#37
Please add me to the raffle.  I will cover any additional shipping upto Canada if won.  Good luck to everyone, and kudo for hosting the raffle.
#38
Is it really  ? .. I don't recall that.  But it has been 20+ years.  Can you upload a photo of front and back ? Id be interested to refresh the old memory.   But if Nulltard can print me the front side .. I'd be happy with a repro and gladly pay a reasonable amount for his trouble and shipping to the Great White North.
#39
Nulltard,  I would certainly buy a quality reproduction of the poster from you.  As having one rolled, versus folded will make a nicer product for me to frame.  Please do let me know.   I'll continue looking for the two pieces I need to make my boxed console complete.  But a repro poster is perfectly fine for the framing, and displaying that I want to do.
#40
Bump ... Still looking for this poster.  Somebody in here must have one they are willing to part with for a reasonable price.  Anyone ! Buller ? Buller ?
#41
Quote from: guest on 07/19/2015, 07:00 PMI may have been willing to part with mine up until that bit where you said "turbo-philes". :P
Hey I was over trying to check out duo-phile just the other day.  I have my account ;-)  Was looking for some media scans, that unfortunately no longer seem to be up :-(

**Edit: rechecked and found it. was looking for something in a TurboPlay issue.**
#42
I am looking for the pack in poster that came with TG16 console.

This one -> http://www.superpcenginegrafx.net/img/tg16poster.jpg

When I bought a boxed console acouple years back this poster, the black card stock that I believe thanked you for your purchase and the Keith Courage mini comic was missing.  I've found the comic since.   But still looking for this poster, and the black card stock

I really want to find a nice clean poster in order to frame it and put it in a spot of prominence in my man cave.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  Willing to pay reasonable cost for poster, and shipping to me in Canada.

I'm asking a few local Turbo-philes that I know. But want to cast a wide net to see if I can get this poster.  This is something I've asked before with very little luck  [-o<

Thanks - Chris
#43
Either these didn't come out in Canada .. or as usual I failed to open or read anything.  Can I get in on this raffle ?
#44
Can I get in on this one ? Keep only finding loose Vectrex titles and then have to chase overlays.
#45
Still looking.  Willing to get either loose stick in good condition .. or cib if price is right.   I am located in Canada, but will buy from anyone in North America assuming shipping can be kept reasonable.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
#47
I am looking to pickup a TG16 Turbo Stick.  I would ideally like it to be CIB with a 7.5/10 or better box and inserts. But would be willing to consider a loose one for the right price.  I am located in Ontario, Canada to it would be perfect to find one nearby to avoid excess shipping, currency conversion and possible duty/brokerage. If anyone is willing to part with one, please let me know.

Only possible trade fodder I have right now is a Exile CD game and manual. So willing to pay cash if that is not of any interest.

Thanks
#48
Can you please add me to this raffle would appreciate.  Long time member,  despite low'ish post count.  You can check I've ran some raffles of my own.  Hope that's enough to qualify.  Thanks
#49
Where are you located .. as likely only interested in the lot if I can avoid shipping, duty etc.  I am located just outside Toronto, Ontario, Canada
#50
I would truly be a fool to not enter, and have this be real. So sure .. enter me big guy !
