TurboGrafx-16 Gamebox App Coming to iPhone

SAN MATEO, Calif. – Hudson Entertainment is bringing the TurboGrafx Gamebox application to the iPhone and iPod touch this winter. The app is free to download and comes with one free game, "World Sports Competition."

The original TurboGrafx-16 video game console was developed by Hudson Soft and NEC. It was released to major popularity in Japan in 1987, making its way to North America in 1989. With an 8-bit CPU and dual 16-bit GPU the console was capable of displaying 482 colors at once. TurboGrafx-16 was the first console to have an optional CD module, which allowed for more storage and affordable costs.
