The TG16 hardware managed to handle a vast array of shmups largely without slowdown while providing some fantastic visuals. Even many of the hidden gems of the PC Engine’s lineup would be strong competition against the likes of the Sega Megadrive/Genesis and Super Famicom/SNES lineups. Before the Saturn and Playstation, you would be hard-pressed to get close to this superior lineup of shooters on any other platform. Despite a modest lineup of exclusive successes in other genres, the PC Engine / TG16 is one of the very best shooter systems of all time - especially for the era in which it was built. While the TurboGrafx-16 struggled to find its place in the American video game market, its Japanese counterpart, the PC Engine, managed some solid success battling Nintendo and Sega.
