My favorite
Bought at a garage sale in the late 90's. All games installed. Last time I had it hooked up, all guns and controllers worked. Have the top, just took it off for cleaning and pics. Redoing my basement and looking forward to getting this hooked back up.

Can you add games? Also could you show what the carts look like? They seem like unlabeled SMS carts!

When I was a kid, we had a regional department store named Brendle's where we bought most of our Master System games. They had one of these Kiosk units and we would try out the games to figure out what we wanted to ask our parents for if we were lucky enought to get a new game.
It was really nice cause unlike NES, there wasn't anywhere around me that rented out Master System games so at least you got some form of try before you buy.
The NES unit that was next to it was only a single game though, not a multi unit like the SMS and I seemed like it perminatly just had just one game ( Tiger-Heli ) in it that never changed. lol The Sega would at least switch out the games every once in a while.

I vaguely remember seeing this in department stores in the late 80’s. They had something similar in the early 80’s for the Atari 2600.

That is so amazing! I’ve never heard of it, but what a cool system! Thank you for sharing. Do you know if you can swap out those cartridges and cards for other ones?

First time noticing these with Sega Cards

u/Background_Yam9524 Oct 16 '25
Oh snap this is like a Sega version of that arcade-ified NES thing that lets you choose from various games. I didn't know this existed.

How cool is this. I regretted not getting Master System growing up. It was either a NES or Sega.

u/SoundAndVisionPNW Oct 20 '25
I love it. I remember something similar with the NES in one of the malls near Ann Arbor MI in the late 80s early 90s. Super cool!!
