PART 2: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l9l2ktqFmLKYe4U.htmlsi=zSa9YVAITjIfUE0D

If I recall correctly Legendary Axe 2 was not called that in Japan. It was a different unrelated game just renamed LA2 for the US because LA1 had been a big hit in the US.

Absolutely one of the best consoles of all time. I have owned it since 1989 and have 38 games.

You started with the beat track form legendary axe 2....an all time hidden gem. Immediate respect

Glad to see a KZfaqr that isn't slagging the arcade perfect port of Klax.

I used to love playing KLAX on the TurboExpress. Not all Turbografx-16 games are very playable on the Express(some shooters), but this one works great.

I always felt that Legendary Axe 2 was originally a completely different game and they just called it Legendary Axe 2 so gamers would associate it with the well-received original.

So I Married A Klax Murderer

A great list, wonderfully presented and you had several one-liners that made me chuckle: • "Can Mario or Sonic do that? No, no they cannot." 😂 • "...to keep you gaming until you're broke, cold, and alone, just like a real slot machine." • "It does blow its load a little bit early..." Very thought provoking, John and several that I have never heard of. I smell somme emulation in my future!

About JJ and Jeff, the Japanese version is my favorite, cuz it stars Cha Kato and the late great Ken Shimura, plus it's more crude with toilet humor and takes advantage of their comedy style by having em wear costumes from their Gokigen TV bits when giving the player hints. Like Ken dressing up as the Bakatonosama

I feel like you really hit the highlights here- and I agree with most every choice and opinions about the games- Legendary Axe 2... was the best. Too many gamers missed out not getting to play this.

Cool video , good presentation and dialogue 🙌🏼 I miss the 90s so much

This video is so underrated. What a great informational video. Thanks for this content.

Legendary Axe, Spilterhouse, The Bonk's games, Blazeing Laser, Alien 👽 Crush, Devil Crush, and more are the best of the best. 😀👍🎮

My only issue with the TG16 back when it came out (I'm old) was that it was marketed as a 16 bit console... yet many of the games only look marginally (and in many cases not at all) better than what was on the NES at the very same time. That and the cost. I would like to have one for my collection though, no doubt.

dragon spirit was one of my favs, also double dungeons. we had bloody wolf and splatterhouse and the bonk games too.

Another game that had a charge mechanic similar to Legendary Axe was Astyanax on the NES.

Oh yeah! Let's turbo up. Silent Debuggers man, my first taste of what 3D games would become. The next time I got that adrenaline rush wax the Alien game on ps1. Good times.

Klax was also on the Game Boy Color. The lack of music was actually a good thing because the way the sfx kept changing and the continual rhythm of moving pieces it created its own music. (Well it did on the Game Boy Color anyway.) Hard to describe but It felt like the game was half game, half musical instrument.

Bloody Wolf was my fav. Ghost Mansion and Adventure Island were pretty cool.

Nice video. I've commented on this in other videos, but the one thing that the TurboGrafx-16 brought to the table was its quality arcade ports. R-Type, Splatterhouse, Bloody Wolf, Klax, Vigilante, Ninja Spirit, and Side Arms really showed what the system could pull off.

I own and play Klax on the TurboExpress, the Atari Lynx, the GBA, and more. I’ve bought it a bunch of times!

I've never played a TurboGrafx though got to admit I feel like I missed out

Turbografx was the first system I owned, so it's always cool to see what someone else believes are the best games on the system. Hard to pick the best on the system since there were so many greats that spanned so many genres, but some of my personal favorites (other than the ones you already mentioned) were Cadash, Might and Magic III: Isles of Terra, Loom and Dynastic Hero. On a funny side note, since it was my first system, growing up I used to call the Zelda games Neutopia Clones. 😂

I had a perfect working Turbo Duo, most of the TG-16 Games including a few PC Engine. Quite a few Turbo Duo/PC Duo games as well. I had the PC Engine adapter, the CD part was region free. I also had the 4 player adapter and some 2, 4, and 6 button controllers. Unfortunately, I had to sell the collection. Lords of Thunder and the original Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition (Boss names were Mike Bison, then Balrog, then Sagat, then Colonel Vega). The last piece I sold was probably my most rare possession... I had the original Shinobi for PC Engine in the original plastic, mint and unopened. It was the very first console port of a Shinobi game. The guy who bought it sent me a message saying he opened it and it plays great... I almost had a heart attack. Probably the last sealed copy of that game in existence and he opened it!

As a kid (we all go through a stupid phase) I was all about my Sega Genesis/Sega CD and Snes. While I almost got a TG-16 in 1989, I invariably chose the Genesis and I'm happy I did. I don't know when it happened but at some point I began seeing the TG-16 as an inferior console. As the 16-bit wars heated up I began ignorantly thinking I dodged a huge waste of time especially after getting my Snes in 1991. I missed out on so many games and if it wasn't for Konami... In 2020 Konami did something I still can't believe. They released a mini TG-16/PC Engine/Core Grafx mini with over 50 games on them. I tried like Hell to get a TG-16 mini but they were all sold out. I basically felt I deserved this for acting the way I had...and then it happened. I was able to secure a Core Grafx mini and I love it! It is the best mini on the market bar none and I'm so thankful that I got it. NEC and Hudson you made an incredible machine and I'm sorry it took so long for me to realize that. Rock on Turbo, rock on.

Really fun video. Something about the Turbo music that really brings me back

Blazing Lasers, Devils Crush

Woooo!

Great picks, makes me want to play them all over again!

Love this video!

I played TurboGrafx games but via emulator, which is Magic Engine, and I have 38 games in my collection. I will not list all of the games, but there is some that I really like. For example: The New Adventure Island, Batman, Bloody Wolf, Cadash, Chase H.Q, City Hunter, Jackie Chan's Action Kung-Fu and few others.

I have the turbo mini, (i have the nes,snes,geneses1,genesis2, and tg16 mini) the tg16 i enjoy alot, mostly because i didnt even know it existed. I had nes, genesis then snes on up. I wish i had the tg16 or the duo when i was a kid

Sticking strictly to US Turbo Chip games for my favorites I would say: Bonk's Revenge, JJ and Jeff, Legendary Axe II, Legendary Axe, Soldier Blade, Air Zonk. But, they may not be great I would also add: Final Lap Twin just for the goofy RPG racing game along with World Court Tennis as well. Adding Japanese HuCards: Bomberman '94, Street Fighter II' Champion Edition which is my personal favorite version of Street Fighter prior to Super Street Fighter II. Adding US CD games.... seriously, it gets very difficult. Gate of Thunder, Lords of Thunder, Dungeon Explorer II, and I personally loved Beyond Shadowgate. Mixing in Japanese CD games adds Dracula X and so many other games.... TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine is my favorite system ever.

I was stoked for the Turbo before it even came out in the US. Wasn't disappointed (and Ive still not played Bonk).

This is a great video.

You had me with "It's been awhile."

Nice review! Been on the look out for this item. Would you mind trying this with Midnight resistance and forgotton worlds. Cheer ❤

Legit never heard of Klax - great recommendation!

Really miss the old turbo flipping because you could fly around the screen with it and juggle enemies

Yes Neutopia was a Zelda clone, in ways, but it had enough different things to make it good and it was a fun game.

I can't understand why this machine has not been added to Switch Online. It would make a killer addition to the library.

Great video! Subscribed👍

Didn't have this system growing up. So many excellent games to learn about. Play a lot of shmups,the Soldier series is amazing. If you get the chance check out Override technically a PC Engine game but an absolute banger. Thanks be well ☕

I loved the TG16. One of my biggest regrets is selling my Duo collection to purchase my day 1 ps3.

I'm bummed none of the Legendary Axe games wasn't on the Mini.

If only they had popular games TurboGrafx16 probably wouldn't have lag behind in sales. They should took all the popular 3rd party games that was on NES and made them for the TurboGrafx16.

Love Klax! I actually beat the Lynx version which might be a tiny bit better than the Turbo game.

Didn't Kanye West once have an album he was going to title 'TurboGrafx-16'? lol

You forgot Ninja Spirit. TurboGrafx was great to have back in the day. In some ways it was better than Genesis and SNES.

They had one last chance to make a game to save the system and they went with shmup #289?

There's no way blazing layers is on this list

Is the turbo grafx 16/pc engine mono or stereo?? Please help me!! I tried to google but I get no straight answers. I play with only 1 speaker now and need to know if its any idea to i install a second speaker. Anyone who knows??

Not gonna pick favorites but that was PART 1 lol😅😅😅 whatever

Legendary Axe II ending is... an ending I guess. And the reason I dont replay it.

Hot take, but I prefer Neutopia 1 to Zelda 1,

da hell is military madness and dragon spirit lol the best of them all

Your voice is prefect. I enjoy your video

Military Madness was another good one.
