Megadrive is now on sale with 15 games free

Bloodwych · 21 March 2009, 00:39

The Megadrive is back - brand new and at a third of the original price!

http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/...s/Product.html

Plays all the original games too!

I can not see Sega logo anywhere...

It's maybe better than this Tectoy crap, but i still prefer the Sega Mega Drive I original console. This Blaze MD lacks RGB out, so it's a "No go!".

Parsec · 21 March 2009, 01:11

Kind-of a nice idea, but it's bulky compared to the C64 joystick.The ability to play cartridges is a nice touch though.

This might be relevant

You can now:

Pure ugliness. I highly doubt that it's compatible with all the old MD catridges. Would be a nice gimmick for £10-15, but not for £37.99.

killergorilla · 21 March 2009, 01:22

It does look as cheap as anything.

Retro-Nerd · 21 March 2009, 01:31

I heard better things about this multi-console clone, if we are talking about compatibility:

Maybe Bloodwych can tell us about the compatibilty when he got his 'MegaDrive'

frikilokooo · 21 March 2009, 01:58

I would buy one of those consoles if cartdigen games were sold too,type "1001 in 1"

You won't catch me buying one of these. I've got my emulation box for that kind of thing. Plus I'd much rather have a nice quiality built Wii remake as it too has games built in:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/ITEK-WIRELES.../dp/B001K0TOXS

it's bound to be better than an old 16bit Megadrive? Isn't it? It has quality game titles like FISH WARS! Class!

TCD · 21 March 2009, 09:56

Seems like there is a market for those 'replicas'. I've heard about a NES/SNES one (quite similar to the one Retro posted) once, but wouldn't have thought that there are actually quite a few of those around. I would really like to know how this 'Wii' is like

Avanze · 21 March 2009, 14:01

15 games is hardly anything, why not 50, or 100? I would prefer to see a new portable MD.

"The World's First Sega Megadrive Handheld Console"

ahem, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sega_Nomad

some confusion going on I guess

Retro-Nerd · 21 March 2009, 19:05

No confusion. Avanze asked for a new MD portable, and there is this Blaze handheld.

discomeats · 21 March 2009, 19:12

it's still not the first though is it...

confusion stands.

s2325 · 21 March 2009, 19:14

discomeats · 21 March 2009, 19:20
