For all you Sega-Heads

I know quite a few people here are big Sega fans but I just quite randomly wondered if any of you here managed to get your Megadrive/Genesis looking like it should have… Mega CD, 32X and all? I’m not sure about if the Megadrive/Genesis 2 combo is allowed as they look way less cool than the first when coupled together. Remembering back to my childhood when they both came out I wanted them but couldn’t afford them.

Anyway, while cruising around e-bay I also found two very interesting pieces of kit…


Sega Nomad


Sega Multi-Mega

The first I’d heard of but never seen before now. The second is new entirely to me. What do you lot think?

I can' t believe you' ve never heard of the Nomad of the CDX! My friend has a Nomad and it is pretty cool. The CDX (called " Multi-Mega" where you are) is a really cool machine that I' d love to have. I' ve been looking for used ones but never found one at a reasonable price.

Of course I have my genesis looking as it should. Check out this blurry, overexposed photo:


I also have my TurboGrafx-16 (PC Engine) looking as it should:

The Sega Genesis setup I had allowed for a side-connection (right-side, if I remember right) for the Sega CD.

The 32X connected through the cartridge port as expected...

Still, the Genesis is one of the best gaming systems around!!!

whatabout_paul - I have both of those

Does that make me cool!

Yes, that makes you cool. Please send me the CDX. Thanks.

Joe, thats one pretty impressive set up right there. I' m shopping about on e-bay trying to find a bargain or two. The only games I' m bothered about playing on them are Sonic CD and Knuckles Chaotix. Your setup has an error though Joe, your Megadrive has Genesis scribbled on it with a strange logo...

otaku, you are indeed cool.

The UK " Mega Drive" logo is even much more strange and uglier! The UK version also runs slower (50Hz = suck ass!) The Japanese version had " Mega Drive" in very small type on the lower right of the console, and a gigantic " 16-bit" in the center.

I have both Sonic CD and Knuckles Chaotix. Both great games. I have both the US and Japanese versions of Sonic CD (Japanese has better music... they changed it for the US or no reason whatsoever). I' m not sure which music the UK version has.

i dont even have a Megadrive, does that make me uber-cool? well yes, it does.

If you don' t have a Mega Drive or a Genesis, that makes you less than nobody. :)

I had a snes. which rocked. i still play rock and roll racing even to this day, man i loved that game.

those are cool.bring back some memories
