Console w/back, RF switch, AC adapter, one controller w/extension, TurboStick (CIB), TurboTap, and games: Alien Crush, Bonk's Adventure, Bonk's Revenge, Dungeon Explorer w/manual, Galaga '90, Legendary Axe, Military Madness, and Vigilante (CIB). All games have sleeves. What do you think it's all worth?

I'm not really sure what's it worth but if you are selling I am extremely interested and would like to know your asking price when you get one.

Usually when I see Turbografx games described as complete they would need to be in the original outer box, without the box it's not really complete. It's more with case and manual.


The lot is probably worth around $150 or so, maybe up to $200. Turbografx stuff seems to have become even more valuable lately, a few years ago I would have said $100 for the lot.

Gotcha, I wasn't even thinking of that outer box. Good call.

I was going to actually say $100 - $120, since many are just loose games. I didn't know TG-16 was increasing in value. Interesting. Is that what people are asking or is it actually selling higher?

The consoles are worth more money now, around $50-$60 with just the hookups and controller or even more. I used to consider them worth around $30-$40 like NES/SNES systems, now those have gone up too. Average around $10 per game as those are mostly good titles, plus the Turbotap, and the boxed Turbostick(boxed ones are worth a decent amount too), it all adds up.

I wouldn't pay that much for a lot like this as I want games to be at least in case with manual and those are basically the common desirable games, but I have to be realistic with current pricing. A lot of the Turbografx bundles I got over the years have to be worth at least double or triple what I paid for them with today's values. Still hoping I'll come across some more at some point.

Here's a basic console with hookups.

I've noticed most of the consoles going for $80-100 depending on condition. I wonder if the developers had any idea about value in the future when they created these great consoles.
