Finally got a TG-16!

Recommended Posts

Damn, 65 bucks buy it now, and all that included? Niiiice. You got some kick ass games, too. Both Bonk games, Legendary Axe, Vigilante, and Ninja Spirit all kick major booty. All in all, a nice haul!

 

I got my TG several years ago at the game store where I worked. Came with a customized carrying case (which I LOVE), the multi tap, two controllers, and about 8 games. I bought it for a hundred bucks along with a clamshell style 3DO system and two controllers with 10 or so games. I thought that was a pretty damn good deal for all that.

You did pretty good for starting out with games. The price is a deal for what you have. Out of the 10 games you got from that auction, I own 2 of them. Legendary is a great great game and Alien Crush is a good pinball game. Alien Crush is good, but it fails in comparison to Devil's crush, another tg-16 game, I own. I haven't played Ninja Spirit, but I heard it is a must have game for the system, and Bonk's Revenge is considered to be a must have for the system.

I have all of those games. You did well.

I once got a steal off of craigslist a few months back. For $30 I got a TG-16 console, Turbo Booster Plus, and 10 games in the jewel cases and two loose games.

 

I made out very well on that one too. Nothing really rare... but in this day and age.... I consider anyone having a TG-16 for sale at cheap prices rare.

Those are definitely good games. I've been out of the TG-16 market for a few years, so I don't know if that's a great deal or not, but I'll take these guys word for it. Personally for $65 I would have liked to see some of the jewel cases with a few of those games, but maybe I'm asking too much.

 

Get a Turbo Booster or the CD attachment so you can use A/V cables and get stereo sound. The TG-16 has some kickass stereo effects!

Hey, that's pretty cool! Reminds me of the one I won a couple days back. I picked up a TurboExpress and a handful of games a while back, and I've been watching Ebay for a decent deal on a TG16 - I think it's a good deal at $65 to find a system in great shape with some games... I'm very pleased with the auction I won, too.
