 ClassicGaming.com - The Museum: TurboGrafx-16
Once you've played a CD-ROM game, cartridge games just don't seem as good.
Throughout the crucial first year, NEC was slow to translate and release the popular Japanese games.
As a result, the TG-CD sold very poorly, as the games were hardly good enough to justify its high cost.

 TurboGrafx Express Area
NEC tried its hand at the portable game marketplace with a portable version of their TurboGrafx 16.
The average resale price of a used TurboGrafx Express is over $100, where a Lynx might gather $35, a Game Boy around $25, a Game Gear for $50.
There is also a communications jack for multi-player gaming, headphone and contrast controls.

 TURBOGRAFX-16
The NEC PC Engine was a huge hit over in Japan (it even beat out the mega popular Japanese NES in sales for a few years) and it finally came to North America in August of 1989 as the Turbo Grafx-16 (it looks totally different than the white square looking PC Engine).
I also liked the cool size of the games because they are about the size of a thin credit card and unlike those lame Sega Master System card games, some of these are actually good.
Even though Sega was a serious rival to the Turbo, Sega themselves released a lot of top games for the turbo like Dragon Curse, Space Harrier, and Fantasy Zone (Sega was not doing so well in Japan at the time, so they made several games for NEC).

 Encyclopedia4U - PC Engine - Encyclopedia Article
The PC-Engine was a video game console released by NEC, a Japanese company.
Many games in its popular Japanese library had not been translated to the North American Turbografx 16.
The PC Engine used cards instead of cartridges to hold its games, and while its processor was 8-bit, its graphics could have up to 256 colors at once in different resolutions.

 The history of the Sega Mega Drive / Genesis series
It was packed with the game "Pyramid Patrol" and a four-in-one game CD (Revenge of Shinobi, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage and Columns).
Well, actually the Sega Mega Drive was called Genesis in the U.S.A., but I'll get into that later.
The MegaTech and MegaPlay use multiple, interchangeable modules that can be placed into its several slots.

 NEC TurboGrafx-16 - Game-Machines.com
In October 1987 Japan was introduced to a new gaming console.
Also, NEC focused too much on graphics rather than gameplay.
While the games may look nice, the novelty wore off quickly and buyers realized they weren't getting what they paid for.

 A Brief History of Home Video Games
NEC also depended on third-party developers to build a library of games.
If any one company seemed poised to commandeer control of the video game industry from Nintendo, it was NEC.
A particular type of game or system that is popular today, can become an embarrassment to own tomorrow.

 NEC TurboGrafx-16
The NEC TurboGrafx-16 was arguably the most powerful system of its time, but it failed in the marketplace, largely due to NEC's lack of north american marketing savvy.
It was followed by a superb CD-ROM based system called the Turbo Duo.
