avatar! | 1,827 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I got an email from Castlemania games with this alluring image Looks like an HD Turbografx machine! I know that Analogue plans to release one sometime this year - is this system one that has already been released? Anyone know anything about it?

I'd stick with the Analogue one that has CD and Supergrafx support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I saw that, but who knows? Maybe there is an option to add CD support? At any rate, I want to learn more about this cute little system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,771 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Is it possible that we are just looking at a replacement/custom case for the original system? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWunderful | 2,927 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Did you see an HDMI port on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't find anything except this screenshot, which I thought was strange. You would think there would be something somewhere, but I have yet to find anything! That said *if* they do release a system with HDMI, I'll purchase it! It looks super cute @TDIRunner the original is much larger, so it seems unlikely for it to be just a replacement case.

Doesn't look any bigger to me. Unless you are specifically talking about the TG16, but this is clearly going for the appearance of the PC Engine.

avatar! | 1,827 Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 Found it, @TDIRunner was correct, it's just a transparent case https://www.retrorgb.com/pc-engine-transparent-case-by-retro-game-restore.html Really though, why has no one produced an HDMI TG16?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,952 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Because analogue some year will supposedly get one out? I never got it either. The SSD3 thing was broken out of the box, repeatedly, never did. A Japanese guy did a digital flash kit that could go from DVI to HDMI but it was like $400-500 range I believe so that's a huge sticking point. All you have now is analogue, the impossible to get pocket with its upcoming eventually adapter and their DUO of mystery. Whenever they bother to pump out group B of the pocket my intent is to get another everdrive again and the adapter, since I got the dock I can do PCE stuff again in style. I never was hugely in love with the optical stuff, so it's not loss to me as I enjoyed the cards. And being analogue, if their weird OS they have out now isn't a cock blocker for jailbreaking, ISOs could be in the future potentially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my first thought. This looks just like the offerings from the company that made the DC replacement shells and - more recently - the SNES/SFC ones. That's a beautiful looking machine in that pic to be sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWunderful | 2,927 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Thats why I asked about the hdmi port, I figured its just a shell swap. def looking forward to the analogue duo and the adapter for the pocket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, it was an emulation box... I think everyone knows Analogue dominates these niches, so no one else really bothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
