Cajun Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Sorry if this has already been posted, they are re-releasing (kind of) the megadrive: http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/8922102/Sega-Mega-Drive-Console-With-15-Games/Product.html I was tempted by the hand hold console but it seemed to have quite a few negatives but this I am definitely interested in. I have an original megadrive but it is a bit tempremental and I imagine thats a risk you would run getting any used megadrive. Comes with 15 games built in but you can also play the originals and I have about 30 of them. Me and the lass are probably going to get one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not buy a megadrive controller for the PC, and download an emulator and download ROMS of games you own. Of course you can't download the ROMs of games you don't own, as that's illegal and I wouldn't possibly ever consider suggesting anything illegal. Would be cheaper than that and more reliable, no?

Fatwax Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I see it has altered beast built in.. what a bizarre game I've still got a megadrive & SNES anyway.. and a superscope. I also rarely have sex. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 LiquidAK is right. Buy one of these: http://shop.ebay.co.uk/items/_W0QQ_nkwZsaturnQ20usbQQ_armrsZ1QQ_fromZQQ_mdoZ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Aye pal, I imagine your lass is desperate to get one. She does actually want it I would rather play it the "proper" way. I know I could probably set up my laptop through the TV etc.. but I am too lazy with all that fannying about. Would only be £20 each anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Jerusalem Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Plays cartridges as well though - pick these up from gamestation for a couple of quid and you're sorted! May look into this - the last two gens of consoles have been missing the ker-chunk of hammering a cart into the machines. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 ;D at "wise fwom your gwave" I got the Beast bundled with my Megadrive, was so bad you simply had to play it. The boss battles were especially naff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Just get a GENS emulator, Jon. If you have a Sidewinder or similar (like me!) you can reconfigure it and it works fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 16 bit games that have aged well - the side-scrolling fighters have not (aside from possibly comix zone). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
