The US shipment was suspended so I bought mine from Amazon Japan. www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B07QD9GQ9J/ref=sr_1_5?__mk_ja_JP=%E3%82%AB%E3%82%BF%E3%82%AB%E3%83%8A&dchild=1&keywords=turbografx&qid=1586417103&sr=8-5
@Nixx Research that. UPS, and our US Postal System, like many other businesses, are struggling right now because of lack of business. Those who are able to need to spend money now more than ever.
I had the original system when I was a kid. I really enjoyed it. If this mini had included Keith Courage in Alpha Zones, I would buy it. The game came with the system back in the day. I don't understand why they wouldn't include it here. No purchase for me.
Very happy that I still have my TurboGrafx! I have the TurboExpress too! R-Type, Blazing Lasers, Splatterhouse, Space Harrier, Psychosis, Ordyne, Military Madness, Bomberman '93, etc. :)
I never had a Turbo Graphic 16 but then again I ordered a mini from Japan over a week ago and still waiting on it and from watching this video I I’m sure glad I’ll be getting a mini sometime this month .
Awesome video mr Riggs, I had the turbografx as a kid as well. Remember being the only one in my class that had it. I'm pretty sure my mom got it for me at a second hand shop and it came with Bonks Adventure, which I loved. I ordered the turbografx mini and can't wait for it to get here!
Lords of Thunder! Yes, I totally forgot I had this downloaded on the virtual console until you mentioned it in this video. That is an outstanding game with an excellent soundtrack, as you mentioned.
I remember thinking I overpaid for that game back in 97 or 98 for $50. I wish I still had it (I ended up selling all my Turbo stuff when I moved in 2003)
@@JohnRiggs Missed a few secrets. Ninja Gaiden can be played in English if you hold I and II on the title screen, then press Select. If you highlight either Tokimeki Memorial (PC Engine Mini) or Salamander (T-16 Mini) on the game select screen and press “select” 2 times you'll hear the chime. Now press “run” on your controller and you'll be playing Force Gear. Pressing "select" 3 times will also cause you to hear a chime. In this instance if you press "run" on your controller you'll be playing Twinbee.
Didn't have a Turbo Grafx growing up but man do some of these games look fun. Thank you for your input. I'm more leaning towards buying one and checking it out for my self now.
Your review was awesome man I just got mine a few days a go and I wanted to see what your review on was like, so now I have it and th trick of holding Run then start button is a cool feature. Thanks.
Awesome review, John. 😎🤘🏻🎸🕹 I’ve always been fascinated with the turbografx-16 and the turbografx mini is pretty cool. I do dig the collection. Especially since it has the turbografx cd games. I would totally get this.
I had my first job (paperboy) when this came out, back in 1990, I was 12 years old. I got the console for Xmas and a few games. I would spend my paycheck by biking 1 hour trip away to the mall and sneak there over the highways. I would go to electronics boutique and browse all the cool tg16 games, that the local clover(Kmart/Caldor clone in the 80s/90s) didn't have. I would buy a tg16 game and later pc games.
I had nightmares after I played Devil's Crush for many hours. I was a kid at the time. Good times. Also, omg Strider is still good till this day! Awesome video John!
Really looking forward to getting this console. Much more than the new xbox or PS5. Can't wait. Sucks it got pushed back, but it's a crazy time right now.
Great review, Riggs! I may cave and order mine from Japan. Everyone else, you guys can change the region on Amazon to Japan and purchase the in-hand models from there!
I just got a Turbo Grafx 16 and it’s such a great system. Even with AV cables the colors are great. I really like the built in turbo option on the controllers
I got mine and I love it!!!! All these mini’s are worth the buy, although $100 was kind of expensive, but better and cheaper than owning the actual console nowadays
I'll probably be picking this up for myself. These mini systems are actually great for me and my work situation. These systems are so small and compact they're excellent travelling companions especially since I work away from home 8 months of the year. This will definitely be a buy for me. I can't imagine how many more units they would be able to sell if they had a translated version of snatcher. A plug and play system with snatcher, people would buy the system for that alone.
Buy a raspberry pi 3 b+ and get a sd card with 50,000 games. I have one with 90,000 games. All retro game. Atari 2600 to Nintendo to SNES to Genesis to Turbo Graphics to Any and every Arcade game, etc etc etc etc. It cost me $125, looks like an original Nintendo with the flipping part where you put the game and 2 controllers. Also does bluetooth for todays controllers, is a working windows computer, and can go on the internet. Awesome and worth the price.
I remember going to Toys r Us to buy a Genesis and saw Turbografx next to it in the glass case. I started to go back and forth as to which system to get. Ended up getting the Genesis. Still think I picked the right system but glad to see if I picked Turbografx I would of still of been happy.
It seems great! I`ve been searching for the PC Engine Mini mainly for the japanese games, but It seems this one has most of them (gotta confirm it though), AND it has a turbo controller already. The PC Engine Mini has a normal controller, and the Turbo is sold separately.
I really enjoy your videos. I like shooters so may look at this. I picked up a real system at a garage sale with only the unit and nothing else. My son will probably buy some things online to get it running.
I miss this system so much and wish I could find one and start getting my games back. Dungeon Explorer and Ninja Spirit are amazing. I would need y's and it came from the desert too lol
I love dark dungeon! ;) Dungeon Explorer is what sold me on the TG16, my friend owned the TG16 and I had the SNES, we swapped systems for a week and Was hooked for life!
Salamander and Life Force are technically different games. Life Force is the "international" port of Salamander but features the weapon upgrade system from Gradius, whereas the actual Salamander arcade title had a much simpler linear progression upgrade system. This has a dramatic effect on the gameplay balance and pacing.
There's actually 3 different arcade versions: Salamander (JP), Life Force (NA/World), and Life Force (JP), and were released in that order. The game play in Salamander (JP) and Life Force (NA) is largely the same, with pick-up power ups instead of the meter, but the NA version having the most voice out of the 3 and some graphical changes. Life Force (JP) is the one with the Gradius power up system and has the most redrawn sprites and 3 different songs.
I ordered mine from Amazon Japan last night. I can't wait to get it and hook it up! Cool video John. But how could you forget to show Soldier Blade or the other secret games?
I love the TurboGrafx! My best friend's brother had one, but threw it and all the games away when he got tired of it. Needless to say, I was mad at him. :( :)
Love my USBs up the Ying Yang 😂😂😂 Thanks for another great video John! How did you get your hands on one of the TurboGrafx? They're delayed indefinitely on Amazon due to COVID-19 supply issues :( Also.....what's up with your sound? Bit of echo and/or background noise.
Well...I have had my Core Grafx Mini for over a year now and I still think it is the best mini ever created. I haven't played it in a good while but I'm about to change that in a few minutes. I have forgotten how to access the secret games so that's really why I'm here.
John, does getting the wrong System Card error for Gradius 2 mean that there isn't an enhanced version of it? It seems strange that they didn't have the option to load virtual System cards... after all its all virtual, and nothing that couldn't be don in software! Good review, I enjoyed it :-) Do you happen to know if R-Type is complete (as in all stages) on all the Mini PC Engine systems, I've read that some only had four levels on the Minis? Thanks.
I seen video where they showed this and the mini pc engines and they just blew me away if the money I would buy all three thanks for showing this but I didn't know put the games cards like wow that is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never heard of this until the Wii so I won't be getting one. Didn't even bother to see what it was on the Wii. But I love all your videos no matter what you do. Thank you.
@@JohnRiggs The games look like a lot of fun. I never saw one here in Michigan growing up at all. Not even commercials that I can remember. Looks like I missed out.
Yes love this mini console I think it's one of the best ones released so far. I got mine from Japan Amazon on Tuesday and put together my own review and unboxing last night. Such a fun mini console I can't wait to do a live stream with it.
I bought the TurboGrafx-16 Mini just to go with the SNES + Genesis + Neo Geo Minis as a way to relive the entire 16bit era. I do remember playing the system back in the day but never really took to it because so many of the top tier games were stuck in Japan.
I got a TG16 right before they left stores. I think it was $70. Sadly I only got 2 games for it. Keith Courage, which actually came with it, and Alien Crush. I did play Splatterhouse at a friend's house a lot though.
I thought the Bonk game in the PC Engine section was just the Japanese version of Bonk's Revenge and didn't touch it yet. So, it's Bonk 1 and I am super happy about that.
It looks like an interesting system to get as the physical games are so expensive. However, I heard there is a fatal system problem with the usb ports that they do not have a power regulator and can burn up some of the chips inside on the small motherboard. Have you had any problem with yours?
I had a Sega Genesis but I always wanted to play Bonk and Legendary Axe. I was looking forward to buying this, but now I am thinking twice. The whole reason I wanted it was Legendary Axe, Legendary Axe 2, Wonderboy in Monster World, what about Bonk 3 and Snatcher?
Working Designs... Vay comes to mind.. so many great games.. Lunar... wow.. I had all these games.. but Cadash I had on Genesis... so these days I play Ninja haha as often as possible
one time way back in like 93 I was playing Cadash with my cousin on my Sega & we nearly beat it we were so far into the game.. I mean hours because we did some grinding at the start to get big & then who comes running into the room & bumps into the console resetting it... my sister of course
11:23 so this is like a Parodius that plays more like Star Soldier than Gradius? 🤔 (parojiya is almost like a mashup of the kana for parody and soldier too)
How does it plug in to work? Do you need to purchase the AC Adapter to plug it into an electrical outlet? I know the AC Adapter is sold separately and I heard that it's possible to just plug the mini into a USB instead.
Here are the games I have on my original TG16: Alien Crush Blazing Lazers Bloody Wolf Bonk's Adventure Bonk's Adventure/Bonk's Revenge/Gates of Thunder [CD] Keith Courage in Alpha Zone Legendary Axe Pac-Land Side Arms Space Harrier Valis II (CD) Vigilante SIDEARMS is my FAVORITE of all of them. I loved Bonk and ...well, I liked most of the games I had. Bloody Wolf was meh.
My collection on my region and RGB modded Japanese Duo is pretty small. But I have only had it a little over a year now. lol Akumajo Dracula X: [Rondo Of Blood] [CD Japanese Game] (And my all time favorite game and franchise) Super Star Soldier: [Hu-Card Japanese Game] Final Soldier: [Hu-Card Japanese Game] Soldier Blade: [Hu-Card Japanese Game] Keith Courage In Alpha Zones: [HU-Card, Turbo-Grafx 16 U.S. Game]
I honestly have zero experience with the system and don’t ever remember hearing a thing about it growing up, but I’ve been interested in one as of late until I’ve seen the prices.
The controls for Daimakaimura on the TG16 Mini are broken. Seems to be an universal issue with the emulation that doesn’t properly resister the left and right D-Pad Movements. Any info on this issue? Tnx.
The US shipment was suspended so I bought mine from Amazon Japan. www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B07QD9GQ9J/ref=sr_1_5?__mk_ja_JP=%E3%82%AB%E3%82%BF%E3%82%AB%E3%83%8A&dchild=1&keywords=turbografx&qid=1586417103&sr=8-5
Wonder if the games are not translated because it was a Japanese-version, maybe? The NA version might have them all translated..
@Nixx why not? any Virus is dead by time it gets to your door man
@@iandaye this isn't the Japanese version. The Japanese version is called PC Engine. This is the same ASIN # that's in the Amazon US Store
@Nixx Research that. UPS, and our US Postal System, like many other businesses, are struggling right now because of lack of business. Those who are able to need to spend money now more than ever.
@Nixx another hysteria virus paranoid...
My only experience with Turbo Graffix was playing Bonks adventure at a toys r us kiosk. Always wanted one though.
Bonk is awesome. They should make more Bonk games.
I have one still. I love my old consoles. I still have Sega, Nintendo, tg16, NeoGeo but don’t have my jaguar or 3do anymore 😢
I had one and it was I wanna say okayy. But it just didn't have the games I really wanted. Been great if they did better games
Splatterhouse was too scary for me to play as a kid, play it now and I might as well have been scared of the koolaid man, Oh Yeah!
bee boo wow
Splatterhouse on PS3/360 was poorly reviewed but I loved the hell out of it. It also has Splatterhouse 1-3 as bonus unlockables.
I had the original system when I was a kid. I really enjoyed it. If this mini had included Keith Courage in Alpha Zones, I would buy it. The game came with the system back in the day. I don't understand why they wouldn't include it here. No purchase for me.

Not having Turbo SUCKS!!!!! I dont have Turbo on half my consoles and its such a handicap I hate it!!!!!
I wish I'd gotten one when they were on clearance for 50 bucks back in the day. It was a competent system with some good games.
I loved my TG-16 and still regret selling it off many years ago
So happy I still have my Turbo duo and all my games 😁
I got mine and I love it!!!! All these mini’s are worth the buy, although $100 was kind of expensive, but better and cheaper than owning the actual console nowadays
Kind of. My local Half Price Books had a Turbo Express for $29.99 once. That's 90% less than normal.
I had one as a kid as well. Dead moon and impossimole are the 2 games I remember the most.
Wish they were added on this.

I just ordered so hopefully it won't take too long!
Got mine yesterday. Super fast shipping from Japan.
same here!
It's good to see this one

"There it is, here it is"-John Riggs 2020
Only one controller though, come on. Snes classic, Ps classic and genesis classic all came with two.
I think the original came with only 1. Keeping it authentic lol.. excuses excuses..
Wait, what? It really only comes with one? Damn. I guess I'm ordering another then.
What's a good wall outlet adapter to use ? You cant use the snes classic one right?
I love the system. Not sure about adding so many untranslated Japanese titles though. Thanks for posting.
Most are very playable
I got to get the turbogarfx-16 mini and play those games.
That one game that is a PC Engine port for Kung-Fu is actually CHINA WARRIOR for the North American released which we played back in the 80's
Thanks for confirming that I do not need one of these. Have a nice day
True. I'll emulate "Bonk" on my SNES Classic.
Yes love this mini console I think it's one of the best ones released so far. I got mine from Japan Amazon on Tuesday and put together my own review and unboxing last night. Such a fun mini console I can't wait to do a live stream with it.

My Turbo MINI is cool but it wont turn on half the time and Ive barely played it
I got a TG16 right before they left stores. I think it was $70. Sadly I only got 2 games for it. Keith Courage, which actually came with it, and Alien Crush. I did play Splatterhouse at a friend's house a lot though.
I thought the Bonk game in the PC Engine section was just the Japanese version of Bonk's Revenge and didn't touch it yet. So, it's Bonk 1 and I am super happy about that.
There ya go...
...allllright.
Had this when I was a kid favorite game was 3 dwarfs.
I wanna get me one of these 👍 hopefully a hack comes out to add Tengai Makyo back on there
Hey John, any updates on the hack for mini system? I heard project Phobo or something a few months back. Any thoughts when it will be released?
It looks like an interesting system to get as the physical games are so expensive. However, I heard there is a fatal system problem with the usb ports that they do not have a power regulator and can burn up some of the chips inside on the small motherboard. Have you had any problem with yours?
I am just green with jealous rage right now.
Cant wait for mine, checks amazon....delivery dec 31 2020 o0
bummed no final lap twin, keith courage or order of the griffon 3 of my favs on this system
I had a Sega Genesis but I always wanted to play Bonk and Legendary Axe. I was looking forward to buying this, but now I am thinking twice. The whole reason I wanted it was Legendary Axe, Legendary Axe 2, Wonderboy in Monster World, what about Bonk 3 and Snatcher?

Got mine on Friday and I'm back in 7th grade!
I wish Konami would make another batch of these... Seriously, they're still in demand, but Amazon is charging ridiculous prices even for used ones...
I wish they made this selection as a game compilation on switch
How have they been?
