Would love to get one but first I need the holder correct? And gotta make sure the system itself works. I've heard they fail a lot. Maybe something to save for so by summer I can have one

PC ENGINE DUO

Already own a tg16 and the av booster

Is a PC Engine Duo cheaper than a North American CD attachment? Prices of North American hardware is insane.

I tried looking on eBay but had little luck. Typing something like "TurboGrafx CD attachment" just brings up a mess of Japanese and North American systems, games, and accessories.

So I looked on eBay and it seems like the tg16 cd attachment is about 300.00 with everything.
The duo is also 300.00 and up to 1200.00. God damn I wish it was 94 again. Would of told my past self to grab that and sealed copies of flinstones and bonks and little Samson sealed lol
Think I'll just play the tg16 and everdrive

Yeah, I'd say so.

There's a distinct lack of Spriggan on this list.

and a lack of Rondo of Blood and Star Parodier

Ys: Books I & II alone is reason enough as far as I'm concerned. It's the main reason I want one.

I've been playing Neutopia and I'm enjoying it. Zelda is still 100 times better though.

This is my third time playing through the game. First time was in MagicEngine many years ago, second time was on an actual TG16 (had to use the long ass passwords), and now I'm playing on the RetroFreak. Eager to get to the sequel when I have a chance.

I've really been loving the PC Engine lately. I wish more of these games were localized and weren't quite as expensive. I suspect that if I had access to more games I would end up enjoying this console as much as I enjoy the Genesis.

I was consulting a US list!

I also think Zelda is better, but maybe not as much better as you do...

Neutopia II is an even better game by a bit than the first. It's similar enough that it feels like an upgrade to the same core gameplay engine, but it is pretty great nonetheless.
