Showing off my NEC stuff. I've been getting alot of newb comments and PM's from people regarding my Valis IV and Dracula X videos because they never heard of the system before. So why not end it now? Here's what it looks like...one of the few variations of it anyway, in Japan, the PC Engine came in many forms while in America there was only three. I will tell some of why the Turbografx 16/Turbo Duo failed, and Nintendo of America is partially the one to blame. Because they were already at war with Sega, they had an anti-competitive and monopolistic strategy of hoarding third party developers and telling them they couldn't make software for any other system than theirs. By the time the mid 1990's rolled around, the strategy was later then ruled illegal. Unfortunately, the American branches of the third party developers we're all familiar with still didn't give a damn about the Turbo Duo and stuck to the Super Nintendo and Genesis. Which explains why we never saw any Konami games on the TG16, and Capcom arcade classics getting ported on the TG16 either by NEC or no-name developers. Dozens of Japanese PC Engine titles were slated for USA release but the plans all got axed due to their lack of interest. So like the Sega Saturn, if people have that mindset that Turbografx 16 sucks because of its selection of games (don't get me wrong, TG16 had a bit over a handful of good games), they need to wake up and buy some Japanese PC Engine imports. It's also said (don't quote me on <b>...</b>
