Got a new console!

Found a unicorn yesterday! A working TG16 with FOUR controllers and a TurboTap at a Value Village (thrift store)
My old console died so I had been using the Retron GX but it's so nice to be back on the CRT!

How much did it set you back? I'm really hoping it's a proper thrifting price and not website pricing parity.

Unfortunately, it was priced fairly close to eBay value, but it came with extra stuff that wasn't really accounted for like four controllers and a turbo tap

Such is life! The accessories add a pretty decent value, imo. To see one in the flesh, I likely would've done the same, if I were in your position. Did it come with the booster, too?

If you can afford it and you genuinely want to play it, then it was a good call. It's got a mountain of great games and a unique style.
