You also included a question mark in your answer, so I wasn't worried.

Sony Parallel was an interesting guess though since it does have slanted sides.

It's your game (well, you and Hobie's game) hold it like you will, but if we have another retro-challenge please, pretty please stop with the games on multiple platforms. It's not challenging, it is extremely annoying, at least to me...

...And I still can't believe someone put a screenshot of an early Madden game. If you guys find just listing every console and year a game was made challenging, like I said, it is your challenge, and I've stated my opinion.

However, I love the cover art rip offs/"what sound is this"/technical/Riddle me This questions. It's overall a fun challenge, and I enjoy watching it unfold.
...Anyway, not trying to frustrate you. If you don't like those questions, then skip them. But join us in the others. :D
thanks for the suggestion Luke. Like my friend Hobie says, if you dont like those question, skip them for the next one. What I basically try to do other than the contest itself is try to let other people discover games they don't know exist or let them know that this games are also available on this console. whether we like it or not many "same" games are available in many platforms continuously, this is part of our retro world and it will be part of this game also.

Just a question is that the Pal TG-16? it looks gray instead of charcoal.

By the way i don't mind the multi-platform games that look the same. It gives others a chance like I just got with Top Gear and with another one I lost, I forget which one. So it balances out in the end.

No, I had it on my scanner and the light bar washed it out a bit as it went. Notice the metal is really white too.

That threw me off, too. I considered and discounted the TG-16 several times due to color. That's why I eventually guessed PC-Engine before TG-16. I thought maybe it was just dingy.

Sorry about that. Wasn't trying for misdirection in this case. The PCE expansion port has the same pins in the same pattern, but instead of a trapezoid it is a rectangle with plastic pins in the ends.
