Hyperkin releases a new TurboGrafx 16 maybe

Hyperkin makes a lot of emulation-based "retro" consoles to play original carts, as well as some (imho) pretty good controllers for the same retro systems. Now they have a new machine that runs TurboGrafx-16 turbo chips and PC Engine HuCards, but no SD loaders or any other aftermarket solutions, nor any ports for specialized peripherals like the disk drive. News article from Time Extension is HERE.

I will say that the "Specialist" (that's it's name) controller is very good. I've been using one with the clubs original Turbo and it's held up really well. It's not "exactly" the same as the original, but it's very close, and most who play with ours at our sows have never played with one before to compare. That said, the console is a tough sell for me- it's nearly halfway to the price of an Analogue Duo, which can do it all with FPGA, and likely more if it can be jailbroken. Just my 2 cents though.
