Bonk Your Way To Retro Magazine Heaven

turboplay.jpg Though it was last updated earlier in 2005, may of you (including the GameSetWatch staff!) may not have spotted the unofficial TurboPlay Magazine Archives, scanning in and documenting "the only magazine dedicated exclusively to the ill-fated TurboGrafx-16 video game console [also known as the PC Engine in Japan], which debuted in major U.S. cities (i.e. NYC) in August of 1989."

As well as pictures of the entire 14-issue run of the magazine, there's an exhaustive history of its June 1990 to September 1992 existence, and even a further history of DuoWorld and TurboForce magazines, which are also partially available on the lovingly crafted site. And heck, any magazine with Bonk on the front cover is OK with us.
