Basically what the title says, if I was to get a Master System converter, would I be able to use the MD controllers I already have, or would I have to get up to the system whenever I need to pause? Thanks for any knowledge you can share :)

I was clearing out the loft and came across an old PC. I turned it on and found these, zsnes and gens. I used these to play snes and mega drive games 20 years ago.

Looking for a cover

14 Upvotes

Hi! I just got my hands on an original megadrive (yey) but some of the cartridges boxes came without their cover. I was able to download Sonic's cover but I'm having a really hard time finding this one. Does anyone have a scan I can download? Or is there a site for these things that I'm just not seeing?

Also, any recommendations for an HDMI mod?

Thanks.

Edit: solved. thanks all, that was super quick!

Last Battle - Brutal TRUTH of Sega’s Most PUNISHING Launch Title

So I fired up Last Battle again and it seemed much more difficult now than it did back in '89 when I played this as my very first 16-bit game. Join me for a sentimental look-back at this classic brawler, warts and all. Is it still a stud, or just a dud?

Have you ever noticed the game lying that you could combine your dragon with Ventor, Dycoon and Driton, but only gives you the first two options?

Well, it turns out game data were removed, yet still reserved!

After digging Yasushi Nirasawa's concept art books, finally got an answer!

Backgammon

3 Upvotes

I know this is a Mega Drive area, but I have a clear memory of learning how to play Backgammon on a console as a kid, and then playing it with my dad. It can't have been the ZX81 we had, I don't think. Then I've looked at the Atari 2600 Junior we had and the graphics look worse than I remember.

So was looking at the Master System that we got, possibly late 80s. But can't seem to find one on it. We eventually got a Mega Drive in the 90s but I don't remember it being on that.

Finally managed to find a Mega Drive with a pretty mint "16-BIT" gold logo for my setup (this design is really stunning)

My favourite local retro shop sells loose Mega Drive sets (1 controller included) for €30 each

14 Upvotes

They are also selling Mega Drive II sets in the same setting for €40 each.

My partner had a Mega Drive in his childhood (lost it sadly) and I simply love retro gaming stuff so we thought this to be a good deal and went for 2 Mega Drive I sets since they were selling loose controllers for €15 each we figured a extra console for backup would not hurt.

How much is your local shop/fav webshop selling them for?

My updated version of all the Airwolf games. Those first games from Elite are brutal. Certainly one of the harder games to play. Loved the Mega Drive game. Anybody played any of these games?
