TurboGrafx-16 Mini delayed "indefinitely"

body_main.png

Konami was set to get in on the mini-console nostalgia trend, but it looks like fans will have to wait a bit longer to get their hands on these throwback systems. The TurboGrafx-16 Mini and the PC Engine Mini, which were slated for release on March 19th, have been delayed indefinitely. The delay comes as a result of the current Coronavirus outbreak in China, which has impacted shipping facilities. The TurboGrafx-16 Mini was first revealed during E3 2019, and was planned to include 24 classic games from the North American and European catalog, and another 26 games originally released in Japan.

I was reading someone's post on this forum saying he bought a Switch Lite prematurely because he feared it would become scarce in stores soon. He's probably right. China is the world's main factory for electronics. Scalpers are gonna love this Coronavirus. :lol:

I'm actually a bit relieved.. so much gaming hardware on my radar this year. Give my wallet a chance to rest.

Was under the impression that the other titles were split by region, but they're all the same. post edited.

I wasn't going to get it anyway. Like seriously why are mini consoles still existing?
Also I feel like the Coronavirus' main reason of existing is to delay everything

we should do a sequel to temper tantrums #32

Never owned this system growing up, the wii u virtual console probably doesn't do a good job showing the good stuff of it either. Plus I hardly hear people talk about it. Seems less popular than Neo Geo in my opinion. :ninja:
