Hmm I know I paid under $200 back in the day, but I bought it from NEC themselves via Turbo Zone Direct back in the 90s when they ran it as a web store along with all the other cool fluff on there and it was a refurb/return item complete in the box. I picked up quite a few nice games through the site both local and import stuff like Ninja Spirit, Panic Bomber, RayXanber 2, Macross 2036, and other stuff I fail to remember. I had a nice local hookup a formerly cool game shop that had pretty much whatever in some amount for any system from around the 2600 forward but primarily NES forward and there was a full on couple rows of those jewel cases loaded with HuCards and JP+US CDs all complete, then a couple 10"~ stacks of hucards loose too. All the stuff was so cheap it was fun just to experiment, and even the $10-20 stuff was a safe enough gamble even using some early net resources which were few for such a system in the pre 2000s.
