It can't be bought new in the US, but on the sed game market it can be
had for a good price.  I bought a stock TG16 unit, 2 controllers, TurboTap,
ps, and 4 games for a whopping total of $60.  And that wasn't all at the
same time; bought the unit for $20 in one place, the Tap for $4, etc.

Now I know I have another 65xxx unit to go with the GS and IIe and other
GS and III!  And the ][+ in the closet!
