In Japan, PlayStation Network has a sizable library of downloadable TurboGrafx-16 games. Classics including Bonk, Alien Crush, and soon Falcom’s Ys series are available to play on a PSP or PlayStation 3.
These games are finally heading Westward, thanks to a leak from USK. Germany’s video game rating board has the following games in their database:
Bonk’s Adventure
New Adventure Island
World Sports Competition
Victory Run
Soldier Blade
Dungeon Explorer
Super Star Soldier
Alien Crush
Neutopia
Bomberman ’94
All of these are listed with "Sony-PSP" as the system so these re-ratings aren’t for Virtual Console or anything of the sort. Hudson told us (a long time ago) a collection of TurboGrafx-16 games are coming to PSN in North America, but never set a date. Looks like that could be happening soon.
