	Turbografx 16
		Word began to spread that the Turbografx was not a true 16-bit system, as its CPU was only 8-bit.
		Though the TurboGrafx had no trouble holding its own against true 16-bit systems such as the Megadrive, it was still considered inferior in the minds of many gamers.
		In 1992 the Turbografx 16 was redesigned into a compact unit known as the Turbo Duo.

	TurboGrafx 16 - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The TurboGrafx 16 is a video game console released by NEC in 1989, for the North American market.
		In North America, however, the situation was reversed, and the Genesis is mainly remembered there for its rivalry with the Super Nintendo, not with the TurboGrafx 16.
		The TurboGrafx CD ROM peripheral was widely considered overpriced (debuting at nearly $399.00 as an add-on, eventually dropping to $149.99 when TurboDuo was launched), and the system was hard to find outside of large cities.

	TurboGrafx 16
		The TurboGrafx 16, unusually, used a thin memory card storage medium called a HuCard, instead of the then-standard cartridge (they were named after Hudson Soft, who co-developed the system with NEC).
		The TurboGrafx was also the first console to have a CD-ROM peripheral (the FM Towns Marty, however, was the first to have a CD-ROM built in).
		The TurboGrafx was marketed as a direct competitor with the Sega Genesis, which launched in North America 6 months after the Turbo.

	TurboGrafx-16 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A PAL version of the system also saw a very limited release in the UK and continental Europe in 1990 as "Turbografx" (not including the "16" in the title, and uncapitalized "g" in "grafx").
		The TurboGrafx and Vistar units use a different controller port than the PC Engines, but adaptors are available and the protocol is the same.
		The TurboGrafx offers the same expansion connector pinout as the PC Engine, but has a slightly different shape so peripherals must be modified to fit.

	History of video game consoles (fourth generation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The platform was well received initially especially in larger markets in the U.S. In smaller metropolitan areas, the TurboGrafx was difficult to find as NEC did not have as many store representatives or as focused in-store promotion as in the larger urban areas.
		The Japanese version of the TurboGrafx, the PC Engine, was quite successful in Japan through the popularity of its titles available on the then-new CD-ROM format.
		Even though Sega saw success in the 16-bit console war, this proved to be the beginning of the end for the company with its attempts to usher in the new generation needlessly ahead of time, for it was performing well in the current one.

		Though the TurboGrafx had no trouble holding its own against the Genesis as far as graphics, as far as sound and speed are concerned, it was somehow inferior in the minds of many gamers.
		Although this policy was later ruled illegal, it hurt the TurboGrafx a lot in the early stages of its life.
		Releasing a game on TurboGrafx exclusively (as they would have to do) would restrict its potential sales (as the NES had a greater installed user base).

		We saw that, in fact, for the TurboGrafX, being 8-bit isn't as big a disadvantage as the pundits would have it.
		The point of this article is to examine the use of "n-bit" (eg 16-bit) as a measure of GPU prowess.
		The TurboGrafX, by contrast, is apparently limited to a fixed set of 512 (or is that 256?) colours.

		TurboGrafx fans could also purchase a CD add-on called the Turbo CD (CD-ROM2 in Japan) that greatly expanded the amount of voice and music available in a game and allowed for full motion video.

	ClassicGaming - The Museum: TurboGrafx-16 FAQ
		For instance, the Genesis has 8x8 tiles which use 16 colors from one of 4 palettes each, which would be 64 colors, except that the 16th is a "transparent" color that is the same for all 4.
		There are 16 palettes, each holding 16 colors.
		Therefore, one sprite may use one set of 16 colors, and another a different set, hiding the limitations of the 16 color limit.

		In addition to all of this, the TurboGrafx was not true 16-bit.
