Is it an extension of the TG16 like the sega cd is to the genesis or a totally seperate one?
It is stand alone.
Try Google next time.

The turbo duo is like the x'eye, an all in one unit. Technically, its the turbograx-16 unit plus the cd-rom attachment (upgraded with the super cd-rom 3.0) for it in one sleek unit. 'Tis a nice system says I.

Thanks LP that was very helpful, so it technically is an attachment but hard to find as one. I bought a box of stuff and theres also a PC engine game, so these PC engine games even though they are japanese can be played on the turbo duo?

Mmmm, i wouldn't say they are TOO hard to find, but they still fetch a pretty good price. Unfortunately, you can't play Japanese Hu-Cards on an American Turbo Duo. On the flip side, you CAN play any cd game on any system, as there was no region coding on Turbo/PC-Engine CD games. The only games you can't play on an American Turbo Duo would be the games that require the Arcade Card upgrade. For the hu-cards (and the Arcade Card upgrade), you'll have to seek out an adapter to play the Japanese games on an American Turbo Duo.

be wary of audio issue with Turbo Duo...
D-Lite came up with solution but for very specific situations...
