-NEC!!!!+====== NEC TurboExpress ====== 
 + 
 +Releasing in December 1990 for both JP and the USA, the TurboExpress is quite simply a portable conversion of NEC's somewhat successful [[eop:video_game_consoles-home:4th_generation:nec_turbografx-16|TurboGrafx-16]] home console. Because of this, it's specifications are mostly the same as this aforementioned system, barring the obvious "portable" conversion that includes a 400x270 color screen. Of course, being an entire console in a handheld body made the TurboExpress' have a particularly mediocre battery life, to the point of effectively failing in the market. It seems that at this time, everyone cared about battery life over anything else... for good reason

 +Doesn’t fully work, but is the only OS of any sort available for the TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine. Since the TurboExpress is highly compatible with the TurboGrafx, it can be assumed this will work.

 +=== PC emulation (potential) ===

 +Whether these emulators support operating systems for these computers is unknown; it must be looked into further. PCs without meaningful OSes are not included.
