About TurboGrafx CD
The TurboGrafx-CD (1989) was one of the earliest CD-ROM add-ons for a home console, expanding the TurboGrafx-16's library with games too large for cartridges. Its already-niche parent platform combined with the added cost of the CD add-on kept the North American audience small, making complete TurboGrafx-CD sets a genuinely rare find for collectors today.
