Whoever is closest to guessing the actual price of the lot, wins that lot.
Everyone has a list, and everyone guesses.The “ghost” always guesses $300
New Rule! Starting now.The overall winner is NOT determined by how close you are to guessing.The winner is now the person who got the closest the most number of times.And we’ll use closest by dollar amount as a tie breaker.Capiche?

“I’m going to start reading the description of a game from wikipedia. As soon as you think you know, hit your buzzer, and I’ll let you guess. If you’re wrong I’m giving the other person an opportunity to guess. If you’re both wrong I’ll keep reading until someone else buzzez in.”
“Who’s That Pokemon?”“Read the description of a pokemon on Bulbapedia and guess who it is”

Unfortunately, I have no experience with the TurboGrafx-16. I CAN tell you it's been used on Price is Retro in Season 1 seven times (5 by @Dan - RetroLogic and 2 by @Datfast ). The add-on TG-CD has been used only once (by @16bitwar-nomad), but it was used 4 episodes before the regular TG-16!

In 3rd and 4th grade I had a friend who had both a TurboGrafx and a Sega Genesis, so playing at his house was my first introduction to both of those systems. He only had a few TurboGrax games, Bonk’s Adventure and a couple others I have no memory of because we almost never played it since the Genesis just seemed better in every conceivable way.

I remember one kid had it at my school and he would always try and tell us how bonk was better than Mario or sonic. No one believed him. Even in high school we would remind him of his bad taste on the playground.

Community Couch question: on last week’s podcast you were talking about how the Pokémon franchise hasn’t changed much, and that it releasing a game almost every year was decreasing the quality of each game. I noticed that the Kirby franchise also doesn’t change much, and releases games almost every year. Yet, it doesn’t get as much derision as the Pokémon franchise. What do you think the difference is?
