- One look at Shadow of the Beast (or Gate of Thunder, or....) on the Duo (TG-16
- with SuperCD-Rom system) will convince you otherwise. Incidentally, the
- TG-16/Duo supports 256 on screen colors while the Genesis only handles 64
- (what was that about color?) The Duo has the largest selection of CD games
- available in the US and the Japanese market for the Duo is strong -- the
- MegaCD (Japanese SegaCD) has done poorly in Japan. Duo/TG-16 games are also
- less expensive (often MUCH less) then Genesis and SNES games.
