I beat BONK'S ADVENTURE Relaxing Retro CRT Corner

Welcome to the Relaxing Retro CRT Corner. I am sitting down and playing Bonk's Adventure for the TurboGrafx-16.

This is inspired by JustAfonso and his great video series. I encourage you to go watch his videos and subscribe to his channel    / @justafonso  

Grab a beverage, get comfortable, and chill out with me. In this series, we'll be playing classic games on original hardware, displayed on a real CRT television.
The goal is pure relaxation—lite commentary, just the authentic sights and sounds of the game, complete with the warm glow of a cathode-ray tube.
