Just beware, as you're getting into territory with the Neo Geo AES for crazy high prices. Those rare NES and SNES games will start to look reasonable by comparison.

Also, get a time machine and buy this in the late '90s. If I hadn't bought my stuff then, it'd be out of my reach now. I've bought arcade cabinets that cost less than Turbo games. A lot less.
I don't know if I'd say AES territory, some of those games are fucking insane. I do have a decent amount of disposable income right now (tbh, I got a second job just to add to my collection while being able to put my other paycheck towards more important stuff). I've been looking thru eBay and it seems a PC-Engine Duo would be a good starting point.

Also, to those who said emulate: lolno. I've spent way too much money on my current collection to just start emulating other consoles. TG16 stuff is pretty damn expensive, but we're not taliing about a $1000 for the system, or $1000s of dollars for one game. I can do a $300 system and a few $100-$200 games. It'll take a lot of time, but it's doable for me at this point in my life.
