<p>Konami – which holds the rights to the <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/03/hardware_classics_nec_pc_engine">PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16</a> brand via its ownership of the now-defunct Hudson Soft – has lifted the lid on yet another retro-themed micro-console.</p>
<p>This time, it’s NEC / Hudson’s legendary PC Engine, the system which took Japan by a storm in the late ’80s and came to the US in the (slightly less successful) form of the TurboGrafx-16.</p>

<p>The console will come in three designs. The Japanese market will get the original white PC Engine, while Europe will get the Core Grafx revision (which was basically just a different case colour with AV output rather than RF). In the US, players will get the TurboGrafx-16 case design, which was larger to appeal to American sensibilities.</p>
<p>Games confirmed so far are:</p>
<p>It has also been confirmed that the Japanese version will have <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/tg16/castlevania_rondo_of_blood">Dracula X: Rondo of Blood</a></strong>, a regional exclusive which was only released on CD-ROM.</p>
<p>There’s no pricing info or even a solid release date, but we’ll update this post the moment we know.</p>
