Did any of you actually own the TurboGrafx-16 Entertainment SuperSystem console or know of someone who did?? Have any of you ever even seen one? I never even knew of its existence until i found this website. In my childhood my friends and i had C-64, Atari, NES, SNES, SEGA and so on, but i never knew any kids with TurboGrafx.

I'm reading about it on Wikipedia right now. Interesting information for those who care about the history of video game consoles.

This is apparently why it ultimately failed...

"Although touted and marketed at the time as a next generation "16-bit" console, the TurboGrafx-16 was, in fact, built around an 8-bit microprocessor as its CPU. While its CPU was of the previous 8-bit generation, the overall speed of the hardware was somewhat comparable to contemporary 16-bit machines."

I'm off to try some of the games for it. I'm interested to know if anyone has actually seen one before.

If this thread is the same as the other one then this is pointless.
I read the other one and they both say the same thing, so thread closed.
