100% the best looking model. if it wasn't for play asia's steep shipping fees i would do it.

It still looks like it costs. That D pad looks awful and would of benefited greatly by also beng black here.

Turbo Grafx 16 mini just made this obselete

Still arender and still looks like utter garbage. To of essentially copied the Famicom logo aesthetic is sooooooooooo lazy. oh it's a retro based consoel we'd better make it look like anothjer existing retro classic console. it shows absolutely zero thought into the design process abd that is enough for me to know it will be dreadful.

Good to see smaller games get onto a system like this, but i still think the system looks awful.

@Filbert_Wang Well it shares a similar colour that's about it. I think it looks cheaply done.

I like the idea of new retro styles games making it onto cartridge but i'm not sold on the system. It looks terrible. They should of bundled this into a console not a handheld and it would of been really cool.

@KennyBania LOL

@xxx128 You actually believe that?

@Damo and the wiiu

I assumed the 'Crank' actually wound the battery or created the power somehow. This will become the new 'wiimote' in that games will tack on the usage no doubt. I do love B&W games but that's about as far as i'd go with any interest in this unit.

th what looks like better build quality.

More cheap Chinese litter, distributed by the kings of Chinese litter.

Looks very Chinese.

Model one Mega CD is for lookign at not using, they are sooooooooo fragile.

@Rhaoulos iT WAS PRE-ORDER ONLY.

This looks genuinely dreadful.

@boatie No , you will get shot.

@GhostGarrity All games will be fully licensed, agreeed and with fees upfront. There is definitely no 'free' games to republish. The fee agreed is on the lower side so that they can agree an initial production run and cover their costs in the assumption that they sell out. This is not an eshop game it's a physical release.

If it retains the same beautiful artwork i'd be interested.

@BulkSlash 8bitdo M30 looks much better for a third of the price.

@Jokerwolf I like that they are bigger and rounded ,they fit an adult hand much better than the originals. Krikzz does incredile work but to me this seems pointless.

8bitdo new megadrive controllers look better and are 3rd
of the price

LOL at those controllers. Make a enw system and evolve the system a little. it all sounds cool but i could never consider it for the conbtrol scheme.

@Zorox88 if it's a digital shop then i assume the games will be cloud stored to avoid that happening.

@MonkeyKing No.

@Zuljaras They kinda did with the arcade collection about six years ago.

I'm so glad this isn't dead in the water as so many have claimed. I am getting the Turbo Grafx-16 module without any doubt.

@Handsomistic15 It's a Megadrive exclusive and it based on a new type of board making it the biggest most powerful game for the system....apparently. But from what little video exists it certainly does look like it could be on Neo Geo.

@wratih9 This isn't a Kickstarter.

The looooooooooooooooooooooooooongest drawn out saga of ridiculous events ever in the history of making a game. just give us some solid information and a game. I've been in this for five years now.

@Moroboshi876 he can get a refund at any time he wishes, so can i but i've been waiting five years and i want this flipping game.

@MagicEmperor Lucky you, i've been in since day one five years ago and already seen three release dates come and go, maybe four.

@Heavyarms55 Because systems like the Turbo-Grafx 16 CD are hugely expensive and often fragile. This unti combined with Turbo Grafx module will be a CD/Turbochip combined unit just like the Duo and it's multi-region. If i can play this and save my original unit from further wear and expensive repairs then ie'm definitely going to do that. The base CD drive will play PS1, saturn , sega cd and pc-engine CD.

All i want is a new TG-16 platform so that i can put my beautiful original safely away.

@Heavyarms55 They are all separate, that's why it's a modular system. You purchase the unit for the console you want. The base Cd drive is the only part that remains the same.

@Anti-Matter YES

@Damo Obviously i don't read them. I just find it odd the amount of space and time given to non Nintendo systems on a Nintendo site historical connection or not. The company of which this site represents has such a huge and rich history that it could supply an almost endless amount of interesting articles that would educate many a younger player.

@impurekind Agreed, they should of released the neptune and made the 32x and stand alone system.

@Damo How is this system relevant to Nintendo.

@BulbasaurusRex The reason they didn't see eye toi eye is exactly cultural differences but not between people between design aesthetic.

What's the link to this one Damo?

@Mr_Pepperami Good for you man, that's a beautiful system to own. I've got a TG-16 arcade cabinet.

@BulbasaurusRex Nope you are completely wrong. The CD library has tons of great games and the virtual console lists something like five in total, there are probabaly 30 essential titles at least.

@Mr_Pepperami It is a fantastic system. personally i'm a TurboGrafx-16 guy by preference. I just love the system and its colour aesthetics. But across the platforms there are so many incredible games.

@BulbasaurusRex Yeah but there are a tiny tiny amount represented of the huge and amazing catalogue.

@Damo wow a tenuous link. The difference is games being on the virtual console and games being played on a non Nintendo console.
Pretty obvious to me Damo.

This is an amazing piece of kit but why do we get random reviews of non Nintendo goods on the main Nintendo site? You may aswell open it up and just start covering gaming in general.

@Mr_Pepperami To compete with the Megadrive and SNES more advanced games. It was pretty much abandoned prior to release but they had a small catalogue of games ready so it launched. Very small immediate sales saw its rapid cancellation.

Definitely behind this, a new TG-16 solution will be amazing.
