TurboGrafx 16 Games On Japanese PSN

[Gorvi]

Hopefully this is a trend that will continue and spread to other classic consoles *cough*Saturn*cough*, you can now purchase TurboGrafx (PC Engine over there) games on the Japanese PSN. Availale now are Mega Bomberman, Adventure Island, Sengoku Mahjong, and Devil Crash for 600 Yen each.

It'd be a great idea.
Has there been a working Saturn emu yet?

I was like: "But, you've been able to get them for ages"...then I realized I should re-read the article and noted it was for the PSN and not the Wii.

I'm all for more TG16 games :)

There are working Saturn emulators (http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/saturn/), although I've never been able to get one running on my PC. I picked up a Saturn with a ton of great games for $10 at a thrift store a number of years ago, so there hasn't been a whole lot of personal need to get the emulator running.

Edit: My friend tells me there is a very nice Saturn emulator for the Wii's Homebrew channel.

I'd love downloadable Saturn games simply so I can play games like Dragon Force and Panzer Dragoon Saga without having to sell a kidney.

I did a web site for someone, who paid me by buying Panzer Dragoon Saga off of Ebay for me.

That was a real treat, and I still have both kidneys! :D

So it was a win/win! :p

Confirmed for the US by Siliconera (http://www.siliconera.com/2009/07/27/turbografx-16-game-archives-adventuring-overseas/)!

No mention of Europe or pricing, but they should be about the same as they were in Japan, so the same as PS1 games. Hopefully this is a sign that more systems will come to the PSN.

MOAR BLAZING LASERS PLESE!

Seriously, I have had a hankering to play that game again for years.

PSN for the PSP or just PS3?

Both, good sir, just like PS1 games.

[KidCactus]

Both, good sir, just like PS1 games.
Oh. Buy on one system, play on both?

[Gorvi]

That is correct.

I never finished Panzer Dragon Saga, Burning Rangers, or beat Virtual On without wining by default.

I should really fish out the old Saturn.

I moded my Saturn so I'd never have to buy Shining Force 3 or DragonForce again. That mod fucking sucked too.
