TurboGrafx (1989)

Or the TurboGrafx-16, depending on where you lived at the time of its release. NEC released the console in 1989 to compete against the NES. Its marketing tactic, however — to push it as a 16-bit platform, in spite of only using an 8-bit CPU — put it up against the SNES and Sega Genesis. Spoiler alert: it didn’t do so well.
