Inclusion[edit]

I think this page should include PC Engine games, and indicate alternative names for different locales, as well as which locales the games were released. And maybe this entire list should be moved to a List of PC Engine games. - Gilgamesh 03:01, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

You couldn't play most PC Engine games without modifying the TurboGrafx-16 system. I'm just pointing this out because if PC Engine games and TurboGraphx-16 games were listed together, then the List of Turbo CD games should be merged with this too (the correct title should be List of TurboGraphx-CD games anyway), as you only need to expand the TurboGraphx-16 with the TurboGraphx-CD add-on to play those games, since it's only that - an add-on just like the hard disk drive on todays Xbox 360, not a system of its own. -- Darklock 15:44, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should model this list after the excellent Sega Megadrive/Genesis page. That is, we should merge the Japanese/American versions and separate the CD versions into their own "List of Turbografx/PC Engine CD games" page. The Megadrive/Genesis list is very easy to use and read and you can clearly see which regions each game was released in.Masebrock (talk) 04:38, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alternate titles, and columns in Lists of articles[edit]

I'd like to invite anyone contributing to this list to take part in a discussion we are currently having on the Talk:List of Nintendo 64 games#Removal of Alternate Titles and Number of Players where we are discussing the use of keeping alternate titles in the "List of...games" some have suggested that they take up too much space and that other columns could seem to be "useful only to fans", and other things that have been mentioned that, and other 'List of' talk pages. I think the alternate titles may be better as

Wikipedia Main Title Year Developer/Publisher Regions released Number of Players
1080° Snowboarding 1998 Nintendo/Nintendo JP, NA, PAL 1-4
64: Tenshi no Yakusoku 1999 Altron/Altron JP 1
AeroFighters Assault
Sonic Wings AssaultJP
 1997 Paradigm Entertainment/Video System JP, NA, PAL 1-4
Michael Owen's WLS 2000
Mia Hamm 64 SoccerUSA
RTL World League Soccer 2000GER
Telefoot Soccer 2000FRA
 2000 Silicon Dreams/THQ and SouthPeak Games NA, PAL 1-4

Please come and give your opinion, and hopefully keep these type of concerns from arising again and again at each "List of" pages. (Floppydog66 (talk) 21:28, 18 December 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Merge[edit]

This and List of PC Engine games overlap almost entirely as only ~14 games were exclusive to TurboGrafx-16. No need for two articles. E.g. List of Sega Genesis games and List of Sega Mega Drive games. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:57, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As someone who greatly contributed to both articles, I have no objections. My only concern is which terminology to use. I'm more partial to the original HuCard/CD-ROM² terms over the TurboChip/TurboGrafx-CD, which TTI ended up partially-ditching when they took over TG16 distribution in the US, especially considering the PC Engine was more successful in Japan than it ever was in the U.S. Jonny2x4 (talk) 21:10, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Kind of redundant to have two lists, one for Japan and one for outside Japan. I think a merge would be ideal. Even List of Super Nintendo Entertainment System games got a merge with the list of Super Famicom games.Deltasim (talk) 21:18, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, the content from List of PC Engine games has been added to this list. Deltasim (talk) 08:42, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The merge has at last taken place. Deltasim (talk) 16:51, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
