Oh wow I vaguely remember Sega being called Feka by some back in the day.
I don't remember Johnny Turbo though but did find the whole story behind the character and comic rather amusing. Thanks for helping increase my knowledge on some Turbo history.

Sorry I don't know what FEKA is

I've been real busy but have been able to play a few minutes here and there and everything looks good.

Holy crap got one working! I doubt anyone has ever been as excited as I was to see the Keith Courage title screen. This one unit in particular had sound but no picture. After changing caps and having no luck I reflowed solder where ever I thought it looked a bit meh and bingo. Hopefully I'll be able to get the second one going soon.

Hello everyone. I'm new around here and new to the turbo.

As a kid I always wanted one but we didn't have much when I was growing up so I never got one. I did have an Nes and a genesis. I still have most of my old collection and now I've caught the retro gaming bug.  But I guess  I'm a bit late to the party seeing how some of the games I've always wanted to play tend to be over priced.

Anyway I came across 2 relatively cheap TG16's and I was super excited..... only to find out I can't get them to work. I've been searching through the forums hoping I can find an answer before I even have to ask so maybe soon I'll be finally able to actually play some proper TG16.
