Today we learned that the Turbografx/PC Engine series of video game consoles had a switch on the controller for each face button, that turned on a turbo mode where, like third-party controllers for other systems, a button press would be fired repeatedly while the button is held down.

We've never heard of this being on any system's official controller before, so that's pretty interesting!
