Didn't even think of that happening. The ones I've got off eBay look sufficiently worn so hoping they are the real deal! Thanks for the info.
DAC first and then maybe. And that is an enormous maybe.
Thought never even crossed my mind. I can't sell any of my stuff.
While the DAC would be great, my CRT is getting a bit old and there is no way in hell the wife will let me replace that one. =)
I'm attached to my retro systems (which is kind of why i'm asking in the first place), just there are times I do feel I might have too many (or my wife is finally getting to me). I just also like putting stuff away (closet or locker) when i'm not using them. So I just can't fully see me busting out the genesis or MS again when I could pull this out and play on my larger tv over my smaller crt.
On their website a while back, I tired to order both but they don't allow ready-for-shipment and pre-orders in the same order. They would have to change their storefront to allow it which I would be surprised if they did so.
It'd be nice if they didn't set the font settings to the exact opposite of what's most readable by default, though. Each time you update the firmware, you have to change your settings again.
I'm aware.
analogue does not own the rights to these fpga cores. Kevtris does. Kevtris could make them open if he so chooses.
Don't sell your classic hardware. They still have value and they will probably end up being more reliable than the mega sg will long term.
You mean like the Super SD System 3? You just gotta plug it into a PCE or TG16.
Is there not some kind of arrangement whereby they have exclusive license to them for a certain window of time?
We have 30+ years knowing Sega Genesis hardware is reliable. We don't have a basis for the mega sg. If the NT and Super NT are a basis, there have been some reports of failure rates for hardware.
Excellent, I was wondering about this. So all of my PAL games can be set to 60hz and play at full speed?
"All" and "most" are different words (you're replying with "all" to a post saying "most"). Most of your games can be set to 60Hz without issue, a few will have been optimized already at 50Hz and will not work correctly at 60. You'll have to test it out.
My guess would be either a neo geo or TV based GBA would come next.
I haven't heard of any significant issues with Genesis/mega drive capacitor issues. I know the game gear had issues(I knowbecause I have one that needs a cap replacement.)
Kevtris, talking to MLiG I believe, around when the super nt released said the N64 is too complex for current hardware/price points and speculated the psx is probably possible.
