If you’re wondering why Konami is handling this, the original console was a joint effort between NEC and Hudson. Konami became Hudson’s parent company in 2005 and then absorbed its operations in 2012, meaning it owns the brand and all its properties.
Six titles have been announced so far for North America/Europe:
R-Type
Ys Book I & II
New Adventure Island
Ninja Spirit
Alien Crush
Dungeon Explorer
The Japanese version, meanwhile, has an almost entirely different set of games:
Bonk’s Adventure
Dracula X
The Kung Fu/China Warrior
Ys I & II
Super Star Soldier
Dungeon Explorer
Interestingly, Ys and Dracula X are CD-ROM games, meaning we could be seeing more titles not just from the Turbografx-16, but the TurboGrafx-CD as well.
Bomberman, Gradius, and R-Type, good enough for me
I actually never ever played on a TurboGrafx-16 or PC Engine
My best friend had all the cool tech gear because he always got it from Hong Kong as his Dad worked there and they maintained a home there. The PC Engine was one of them and yeah, it sure beat the snot out of my Nintendo in terms of graphics back then.
