Well, I have the poster and maybe selling my Beyond Shadowgate, but, unforunately the seem on the poster has a slight tear in it

See Clash.... If people know you want stuff, you're more likely to get it...

lord_cack · 05/11/2010, 05:32 PM

My biggest thing is I dont know what a complete copy of the game is worth.... like I said the poster has a seam rip but other wise, book, game, case all there, all in good shape.... not MIB or anything but not jacked up either. Will be selling other things In my collection as well.... unfortunately

Nope, just Turrican. I was never a collector in my younger years so boxes went out with the trash.... sorry

So did everyone elses.

Par for the course.

Hey Roy, I appreciate the site you set up. Although I've had a collection of games since the early 90s (when you could still get the games in retail stores), I've learned some things. I didn't know that there were 2 different color chips for Champions Forever Boxing. I was never fond of it, maybe the one I got was the lousy version.

Glad you found some use for it.

The only difference in the two Champions Forever Boxing is the color of the Hu card, they're both lousy.

Cool, it's always nice to have a new Turbo site. Don't let anyone ruin your fun!

I'd like to see more pics of accessories and other items, since I'm not as clear on what kind of random items are actually out there.

As they aren't always easy to find, these items are going to take time for me to find and buy at a decent price. As I get them I'll definately add them. In the meantime there are a few threads here that have pics of some of the cool swag that's out there.

Sparky · 05/13/2010, 08:57 PM

hey Roy, have you thought about people sending you picts of stuff you dont have to help your site? Just a thought.

henrycsc · 05/15/2010, 10:00 AM

Roy, I was looking through your site and saw that 2 games do not list their original "extras". I haven't opened a recent copy to confirm if they are still included, but TV Sports Football had a "quick start menu card" and World Class Baseball had a "Player Stats" Booklet. If you need pictures of what these look like, let me know.

I did consider it. Being the site is more about showing what games actually came with, I didn't really worry about the rest of the stuff as it's just a bonus.

The World Class Baseball stats booklet I was actually aware of and it's on the way. Once it gets here I'll upload the pics.

The TV Sports Football quick start menu card I don't believe I've seen. If you could toss up a pic so I know what I'm looking for that would be awesome.

Also, can anyone else confirm this quick start menu card?

Dalder · 05/17/2010, 06:15 PM

I can CONFIRM that this is correct that TV SPORTS Football came with the plays sheet and World Class Baseball comes with Players stats sheet that is why I bought my WCB brand new from a friend of mine and opened it

Obfuscate · 05/18/2010, 07:52 AM

Yes, TV Football has the quick start card. I have extra copies Roy if you want one PM me if you do, no charge.

Finally getting around to taking pics of boxed Turbos for my website but I'd like to double check before take pics and put them up. There are two boxed (regular box and holiday box) versions I have that I'd like to double check the contents to make sure I post them as complete and if not, what they are missing. I'd like to do them one at a time to avoid any confusion. Let's do the original Turbo first.

Version 1 - Regular Turbografx-16
1. The box itself.
2. Two styrofoam inserts (on that holds the turbo and the other holds the rest of the items included.
3. Turbografx-16 with back cover
4. A/C Adapter
5. RF
6. One controller
7. Keith Courage w/comic
8. Large black cardboard Thank You card
9. Instructions
10. Turbografx-16 poster

Anything else I'm missing?

RoyVegas · 05/21/2010, 03:48 PM

I know someone has to have a boxed Turbo to verify what's in theirs........

henrycsc · 06/04/2010, 01:07 PM

Sorry for the slow response Roy. Here are the photos of the Player Stats book. Klax also had a registration card and Gate Of Thunder had the surprise card for bomberman. Here are photos of them:

Thanks for the input Henry!

The World Class Baseball stat sheet will be put up as soon as it gets here. It should arrive any day now.

The Klax card and GoT suprise card I will make a note of them missing sometime this weekend. Thanks for catching them.

RoyVegas · 06/07/2010, 12:18 AM

Additional missing items noted on the site. Thanks Henry

Added a Kisado converter and the Chopsado converter.

Still looking on confirmation from a few posts ago about what was included in a complete Turbografx-16. Can someone confirm the contents I listed earlier?

henrycsc · 06/09/2010, 11:05 PM

Roy,
I can confirm some, but not everything on your consoles, accessories

Turbo Express - They Originally came with 6 NEC AA batteries (3 - 2packs, green). Everything else I can confirm.

TG-16 I have everything except the comic book. I bought 2 systems new from Toys R Us and I dont have the comic, so I'm not sure if some didn't get it. Mine were probably some of the very last original stock that was sent to retail stores because I bought them when the store discontinued them.

I'll get you photos of the accessories that I have.

My cables for the booster plus are a little different, and mine came with a registration card (different than the turbostick kind)

I have the complete Express AC Adapter.

I do also have a card introducing the Booster Plus and CD Unit that I believe was a game pack in for one of the games that used the save feature. The card lists the games, but I'm not sure which game(s) had the card as I only have one.
