Recommended Pc-Engine Tg-16 games. Exclusive. non shmup

[KalessinDB]

Thanks for all your recommendations!

Its a nice system but i really feel that i lacks good games. Its much easier finding good games for the Megadrive and Snes that it is for the TG16/PCE. Im not saying its a bad system, its just tough finding many good games.

Numbers game, man. PCE had 300ish games released, many of them were never localized for the US. Genesis/Mega Drive had closer to 1000 and SNES had 700ish in the US alone (couldn't find a worldwide release # in my 30 seconds of googling and didn't feel like counting that Wiki list).

When the total release catalog is ~1/2 to 1/3, there will be fewer "good games"... unless you're REALLY lucky. But assuming most consoles have a similar ratio of good games to filler games, it's logical that there will be fewer.

Especially, like everyone's said, if you don't like shmups on a console that's very Japanese

There's a great port of Buster Bros on the Turbo and a great port of Bonanza Bros for the PC Engine and their both in the 20-30 dollar range. If you're a pinball guy then Alien Crush and Devil's Crush are musts, but a complete copy of Devil's Crush could cost you $60+.

OP asked for exclusives though. Buster Bros. is also on PS1 and SNES.

Does the exclusive rule come into effect if the only other version is for a console that's a generation behind? If not, I suggest Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu.
