Following the trend launched in 2016 by Nintendo with the NES Classic, Konami has launched the TurboGrafx-16 Mini, a miniaturized version of the TurboGrafx-16 console released by NEC Home Electronics in Japan in 1987. The console comes with lots of games: 25 in English, plus the PC Engine option for 32 more games in Japanese, some of which you can still play even if your Japanese isn’t everything it should be. While it is available for pre-order now on Amazon for USD100, shipping to Europe and North America is delayed, possibly to the end of the year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
