Siliconera:
In Japan, PlayStation Network has a sizable library of downloadable TurboGrafx-16 games. Classics including Bonk, Alien Crush, and soon Falcom’s Ys series are available to play on a PSP or PlayStation 3.
These games are finally heading Westward, thanks to a leak from USK. Germany’s video game rating board has the following games in their database:
"The Adventure Island and Wonder Boy series have a long shared history so let's explore both franchises and see which one's best." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
A.J. says: "When it comes to fast-paced retro platformers, very few games stand out in my memory as being as enjoyable as Adventure Island. Pull up your grass skirt, grab a stone axe, and let's eat as much fruit as our stomachs can handle!"
I used to wake up watch Saturday morning cartoons and as soon as Looney Toons was over turn this game on until my parents woke up... Ohhhh to be 5 again.
Replies(1)Pam/Cannot Be Tamed of Gaming Rebellion is looking at one of gaming’s lesser known mascots – Bonk! She reviews the original Bonk’s Adventure on the TurboGrafx-16, as well as look at a bit of his history and the history of the console to explain why Bonk never made it big in North America like Mario or Sonic.
Lesser-known I don't know what you're talking about anybody that knows anything about the tg16 knows that Bonk was the mascot this makes no sense at all. I loved playing this game back in the day.
OMG! BC Kid, AKA Bonk's Adventure!
Fantastic! Hopefully this'll make up for the insult and artistic style for the recently developed one.
Legendary Axe, Bonks Adventure, Dracula X, Blazing Lazers, Bloody Wolf, Alien Crush, Dragon Spirit, Splatterhouse, Military Madness, Neutopia, Dungeon Explorer, Victory Run, Time Cruise, Final Lap Twin, Soldier Blade, Side Arms... The list goes on and on...
:D! YES! the TurboGrafix had some amazing shooters ! cant wait for this
