PCE emu is one of the best PC Engine/Turbografx 16 emulators about. It plays pce roms and you can link a PC Engine/Turbografx 16 CD Rom Bios to play CD Rom games. Excellent emulation and easy to use. I recommend this application. 5 🌟

The emulator is fine, and the games run smoothly and look great, but the save states don't work. Manual or automatic. Maybe I'm the one doing something wrong, but I doubt it. I played 3 games yesterday and made save states for all of them, and this morning, none of them are there. Pretty bummed. Otherwise, everything else works.
