List of Stores That Sell Turbo Games

Added! Thanks guys!

Video Game Wizards in Portland Oregon has some stuff. Got my 2nd Duo there when I traded in my Japanese Saturn at the Retro Gaming Convention. My only complaint is that they included Keith Courage with it, but hey at least I got two more controllers and av and power supply with it too!

[A_Locomotive]

Here is one you can add to your list. http://www.lunavideogames.com/ These guys have 2 stores in my city they usually have a selection of TurboGrafx and on occasion Duo games. They are a great store. When I first found my TG16 it had no controller, RF or power supply and not knowing at the time that generics of either would work I took it down to see if they would let me use some of their TG16 cables to test it. They did and let me play R-type for a while.

Last time I was in San Diego (this past July) I stopped by both of those shops to see what kind of TG goodness they had.  Both stores were selling the console (for $70, which isn't horrible, but it was more than I was willing to pay) and one had an Express, which they wanted $200 for (which I thought was pretty steep).  Both stores also had maybe a dozen common HuCards, and I think they wanted between $10-20 ea.  I didn't get any Turbob goodness from them, but did pick up a handful of Genesis carts for $3 ea.  Good bunch of guys - they know their retro.

The downside to them knowing their stuff is they price accordingly and you'll never find crazy hidden gems like will occasionally happen at swap meets or play n trade. Though they are still almost always priced fairly and usually cheaper then ebay. They've been really cool to me when I've bought and traded from them. Once when I was there I was short 3 bucks + tax and they said what I had was enough and gave it to me. And they have stretched the value of my trade-in's on more then one occasion if the item I wanted to trade for was pretty close in price(such as some Lynx games for my old GBC). They've also got a great return policy so in the event a dud game slips through them they will take it back with no hassle. There is only one other retro gaming store aside from the two Luna locations that I'm aware of in my town. The guy who runs it is a loony and prices his shit like its made of gold, want a copy of Finally Fantasy 7 black label? $100. Boxed Sega Genesis III in pretty shitty condition? $300. Loose copy of Secret of Mana w/ peeling label and writing on cart? $90. Earthbound? Don't bother asking.   lol Here is his store, check out the reviews, I'd be willing to be all the positive reviews are from friends and relatives or people oblivious to what things are worth.

I should check out this Luna Video Games place... though, I've usually been disappointed in local game stores that deal with retro systems...

  Hi folks.  I'm in Austin and haven't seen GameFellas listed.  There is a popular game store (Game Over) who seem to get a lot of attention, but GameFellas have been around much longer.  They also buy/sell DVDs and BDs so their stores are often merged with MovieFellas.  There are 3 or 4 around the Austin area and do carry Turbo stuff, but not much.  They've got all the other old consoles too, but seem to make most of their money on used 360/PS3/Wii stuff.

GameFellas
http://www.gamefellasentertainment.com/

  Their website doesn't have much.  I recently went to the one up by Lakeline Mall and found World Sports Competition for $30.  After trading in a few extras I had lying around, I ended up paying about $22 for it.  Not too bad!  I've been keeping my eye on eBay for that one and it just isn't around really, not for less than $120.  (The gameplay is definitely NOT worth $120).  They also have lots of KCs as well as sports titles that I'm sure they'll sell for cheap for anyone needing cases.

Disc Replay in Flint, MI had some Turbo games in early March. Not sure what they were though, as I had my hands full of other stuff. Their prices on Genesis games were very reasonable, so there's a chance that the Turbo games are reasonable as well.

Please check my post at the bottom of the page.  Yes they are still there.  If by classic games you mean before 8 and 16 bit stuff, they have had quite a few 2600 in the past.  Not to sure about now.  The do however have a decent amount of the 16-bit stuff.  Their pc-engine section has dwindled since last time i visited.  Henry probably bought it all up hehe.

Games Deals in New Westminster, BC has a worn/dirty TG-16 for $85 and a few HuCards, including Air Zonk loose for $80, Bonk's Big Adventure loose for $140 and Keith Courage loose for $15. Their slogan is "cheap games!".

If you're interested in trading in games, they give 25% of the cheapest sold prices on eBay. Less for cash.

This is the ebay link for Software Seconds in Columbia, SC  (seller Anime Camp)

Pretty much the same inventory.  Unfortunately, games don't come with cases if you buy from ebay...  The CD Games have cases in the store (but not the hucards)

That's a pretty well-stocked TG-16 selection. Never entered a retrogame store and ever saw that many.

Where was this shot taken?

Oddly enough, I asked for the SideArms copy but I never heard back from them.
