Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
I'm very surprised that keith courage is not on that list. That game is actually pretty cheap on ebay. Blazing lasers can be added to the slightly above $10 section.

Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
One problem with overhauling this article is I think you're going to have to bump up the prices. Even if you left the list alone, TG stuff has been rising and I doubt you're going to get any of those games for that cheap unless you're really lucky.
The problem is that it doesn't fulfill the other qualification too well.Godot102 wrote:I'm very surprised that keith courage is not on that list. That game is actually pretty cheap on ebay.

Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
very good! I have now gone thru 2 TG16 and one pc engine fx, as always I regret it! This article makes me want to try for a 3rd.
Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
In terms of cost and availability, Japanese PC Engine games are always recommended.
Galaga 88/90 is a great addition that shouldn't be too expensive for either the TG16 or PCE.

Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
Yeah, US games have not dropped in price, and many have gone up. I'm pretty sure updating the list with a focus on US games will simply shrink the game pool. Then again, leaving it un-updated may simply leave people with a false impression of what they can get.
Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
I can raise the limit if need be -- but if there's ones that are in the cheaper ranges and not listed in the existing one, please let me know so I don't overlook it.

I'll do some poking around this week and see what I can turn up.
Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
It does look like Bonk has gone up. It's usually $15-20 now.

Re: Good and Cheap TG-16 Games?
If you raise the limit, Fantasy zone can be added. It seems to be in the $15-25 range.
