TurboGrafx-16 with Turbo CD add-on


The TurboGrafx-16 also known as PC-Engine in Japan, is a video game console first released in Japan by NEC on October 30, 1987. The system was released in late August 1989 in North America.

The TurboGrafx-16 was the first video game console in North America to have a CD-ROM peripheral. The TurboGrafx-16 is an 8-bit system, with 16-bit graphics chip capable of displaying 482 colors at once.

Yes 482 colours, hell you could nearly count them, and if that wasn't enough to rock your World, take a look at this little beauty, which plays all Turbo Grafx 16 HuCards plus Turbo CD games
