Yesterday, I attended the Philly Classic Game Show in Radnor,
Pennsylvania. There was stuff there from every aspect of gaming. From
RCA Studio 2 to N64. A great show.
I took along my Supergrafx and games. I heard many comments about having
never seen one of these before or never even hearing about it.
Generally, anyone that saw it or tried it was impressed.
The cool Turbo thing I got at the show was something that I never knew
existed. It was an official, padded, orange and black Turbografx 16
carry bag. It is about the size of a small backpack. It has two pockets.
One for the system and one for the accessories. It has a carry strap for
over the shoulder. The orange is a little faded, but all in all, very
cool. It even came with a Turbo in it.
Has anyone else seen this thing ? Is there other items like it ?
I also stopped at a thrift store on the way home. Usually I ignore the
used stuffed animals, but last night, something caught my eye. I thought
to myself "Hey, that looks like Bomberman". I picked it up and checked
the tag. Between the Japanese writing on the tag was HUDSON SOFT. It WAS
Bomberman ! His arms have spring to them for holding something (like a
BOMB), but that wasn't there. Has anyone ever seen one of these ?
Two, count 'em, TWO decent Turbo finds in one day. Miracles do happen.
