Hi! I'm Chris Bucci. TurboGrafx fan, collector and
retro-gaming nut.
And...welcome to Turbo Views.
                              
Turbo Views is an online retro-gaming
review series focusing on
the U.S. TurboGrafx-16
video-game system (with a completed goal
of reviewing all of the officially released games).
But, you already knew this.
So, I guess the next question is, why was
the series created?
In a way it all started back in
mid-1991
when yours truly
purchased his own TurboGrafx-16
system. Being a hardcore gamer, both
in arcades
and with home-consoles,
I was looking for something
new and
fresh to enhance my gaming addiction.
At the time I was very "Nintendo dedicated"
owning both the NES and Gameboy exclusively and
had
yet to make the next upgraded plunge.
Well, long story short, the TurboGrafx (and
eventually the CD-ROM add-on)
became a part of
my videogame pastime. In fact, through bargain
bins and
numerous sales, I acquired
around 70 different titles. While I
eventually moved
on to other platforms, the TurboGrafx remained
a
favorite nostalgic system.
For more information, make sure to check out
the "Extra Vids" on this site.
In 2003 I found the last game to complete my
American TurboGrafx collection
(which equals just
a tiny bit under 140 titles). To share my
enthusiasm with
the system, I wanted to create
something online. The TurboGrafx had very little
presence and not very much recognition there
at the time. I wanted to change that.
Turbo Views began in 2009 and finished in 2021.
The series remains online
plus you have the
DVD releases that physically catalog them all.
I want to thank the fans and friends I have met as
a result of doing these
videos. You guys are the
best and one of the reasons I have so much
enthusiasm about it. If you're new here, make

Thanks!
