It was retailed for {{Inflation|USD|399.099|1987}}.0 It had a Hudson Soft HuC6280 8- Windows version updates to bit CPU at 7.16 MHz and 1.079 MHz with 8KB of RAM and 64KB of VRAM.12)* [http://www.emuThe CPU was teamed up with a 16-bit graphics processor and 16-francebit video color encoder chip, both built by Hudson Soft.com/emulateurs/6When it came time to seek other potential markets, the two companies eventually caved to a limited American release in 1989 under a completely different model and name: the '''TurboGrafx-arcades/61-multi-games/530-daphne/ Emu-France] (French language16'''. v1The European versions varied throughout the countries, being the western version in Spain and United Kingdom and Japanese models in Benelux regions.0.9.)

NEC planned to enhance the system further, announcing the "PC Engine 2" that would later become the '''PC Engine SuperGrafx'''. However, it was rushed to a 1989 market in Japan lacking much of its promised features with only seven titles exclusively made for it, ending up a commercial failure to be binned and discontinued not long after. The '''PC Engine GT''' / '''Turbo-Express''' was a very rare handheld model of the original hardware, in the same vein as the Sega Nomad (a portable [[Sega Genesis emulators|Sega Genesis / Mega Drive]]). It did include some exclusive features like the TurboLink multiplayer feature (used in games such as the flight sim called ''Falcon'' and ''Bomberman 93'') but wasn't widely supported. ==Emulators=={| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"|-! scope="col"|Name! scope="col"|Platform(s)! scope="col"|Latest Version! scope="col"|PCE-CD (TG-CD)! scope="col"|PCE2 (SG)! scope="col"|[[libretro|Libretro Core]]! scope="col"|[[Emulation Accuracy|Accuracy]]! scope="col"|<abbr title="Free/Libre and Open-Source Software">FLOSS</abbr>! scope="col"|Active! scope="col"|[[Recommended Emulators|Recommended]]|-!colspan="10"|PC / x86|-|[[Mednafen]] <small>(PCE-Accurate)</small>|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS|FreeBSD}}|[{{MednafenURL|releases/}} {{MednafenVer}}]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||High ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[MAME]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS|FreeBSD}}|[http://www.mamedev.org/release.html {{MAMEVer}}]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||High ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[Mednafen]] <small>(PCE-Fast)</small>|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS|FreeBSD}}|[{{MednafenURL|releases/}} {{MednafenVer}}]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||Mid ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[BizHawk]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[http://tasvideos.org/BizHawk/ReleaseHistory.html {{BizHawkVer}}]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||High ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[higan]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS|FreeBSD}} |[https://github.com/higan-emu/higan/releases {{higanVer}}]|{{~}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||? ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{~}}|-|[[Turbo Engine]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[http://aamirm.hacking-cult.org/www/turbo.html 0.32]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||High ||? ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}}|-|[[MagicEngine]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|macOS}}|[http://www.emuparadise.me/emulators/files/user/Magic-Engine_1.1.3-952.rar 1.1.3]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||Mid ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}}|-|[[Ootake]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[http://www.ouma.jp/ootake/ 2.97]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||Mid ||? ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}}|-|pcejin <small>(Mednafen 0.8.x)</small>|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[https://github.com/TASVideos/pcejin Git]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||Mid ||? ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}}|-|[https://web.archive.org/web/20071206014650/http://www.dridus.com:80/~nyef/darcnes/ DarcNES]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS|FreeBSD}}|[https://segaretro.org/DarcNES 9b0401/9b0313]|{{~}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||Low ||? ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}}|-|Neco|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|0.11|{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||Low ||? ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}}|-|[http://takeda-toshiya.my.coocan.jp/ ePCEngine]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[http://takeda-toshiya.my.coocan.jp/common/index.html 8/12/2017]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||? ||? ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}}|-|[[FinalBurn Alpha]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[http://www.fbalpha.com/downloads/ 0.2.97.43]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||? ||{{✗}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}}|-|[http://zeograd.com/ Hu-Go!]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux}}|[http://zeograd.com/hugo_download.php 2.12]|{{✓}} ||? ||{{✗}} ||? ||? ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}}|-!colspan="10"|Mobile / ARM|-|[[Mednafen]] <small>(PCE-Fast)</small>|align=left|{{Icon|Android|iOS|Linux|Pandora}}|[{{MednafenURL|releases/}} {{MednafenVer}}]|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||Mid ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|PCE.emu|align=left|{{Icon|Android}}|[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.PceEmu 1.5.43]|{{✓}} ||? ||{{✗}} ||? ||? ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}}|-!colspan="10"|Console|-|[[Virtual Console]]|align=left|{{Icon|Wii|WiiU}}|N/A ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||High ||{{✗}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[Mednafen]] <small>(PCE-Fast)</small><ref group=N>Only available on consoles as a libretro core (e.g. [[RetroArch]]).</ref>|align=left|{{Icon|PSP|PS3}}<br>{{Icon|Wii|3DS|WiiU|Switch}}|{{MednafenVer}}|{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||Mid ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|Hu-Go!
