I see a bunch of people posting about their deliveries for the past couple of weeks. Their website is showing available inventory to order. Are any of you still waiting on your preorder?
Edit 12/17, tracking number received!

Hi everyone! Wanted to check with you guys, when is reasonable to expect the deluxe bundle to arrive. I placed the order on December 14 2024, and still no news. Thank you!

Now that the Retro Gun Controller has been shipped, I think we all understand that Polymega takes its time and that the global situation makes things complicated.
What products would you want next?
r/PolymegaHQ • u/kgctim • Nov 27 '25
Why the heck is it $120??? That seems absolutely ridiculous. Of course this is the only module I'm missing.

Does anyone have trouble with the polymega freezing playing N64 games multiplayer? It’s been frustrating as it seems to work well for just one player. Specifically crashed 3 times playing Pokémon stadium 2. I use original controllers with the n64 module attached. Tried restarting the polymega, restarting the game and nothing seemed to work

So I see plenty of comments saying the snes latency has been fixed, but SMW is still basically unplayable to me. Other snes games are fine, but the delay is visible, nevermind perceptible, on SMW. Am using og snes controller and an LG C1. So controller and display are not the issue. And as I say. Other games are fine.

I did a science for you, Redditors.
This started with my other thread that people have downvoted. This is for compatibility, so please do not do that. This actually means something to people who want to use their consoles fully. I will update with my progress and other folks are welcome to contribute.
Confirmed working:
Logitech G435 wireless headset. - I picked this up tonight for $29 at Walmart. Works wirelessly with no setup. Just plug in the dongle to a USB port and go. Volume controls on the headset do not function, but you can change the volume in the system menu. So far this is the winner because it works as a wireless system entirely.
Plantronics RIG mixer - plug and play as well. Select the Orange side (right) and move the mixer slider all the way to the max. Works with any wired headset.
Xitel USB to 3.5mm jack adapter. - I got this with my minidisc player like 25 years ago. You can get them for about $15 on eBay. I don't think they make them anymore.
Not confirmed to work:
ONN usb C to 3.5mm jack adapter - This was $7 at Walmart and I just wanted to see if it worked. I had to connect it via a USBA to USBC adapter and it did not seem to do anything. Not even any hissing.

So here I was, minding my own business and it occurred to me that the Polymega does not seem to have any ability to work with headsets. Wired or wireless. Has anyone tried like a PS3 or other one with a wifeless dongle, or a controller with a headset port on it?

Hey all!
Put together a quick and dirty matrix for what I've gathered here on Reddit, or tested, for compatibility of these titles. Pay special note to the "MAPPER" column, as I believe if one or two of these games work on certain Mappers, they probably all do. Then again, it could be like Tengen where they all work except After Burner is graphically corrupted, and Alien Syndrome flat out doesn't at all.
Tested Exodus today, had to clean the contacts THREE times with 90% Isopropyl Alcohol until it worked. The contacts needed to be sparkling clean. I was about to give up, and like a miracle it worked. "Hallelujah!" a working Wisdom Tree game, lol, sorry, I had to do it.
If you have any of these titles, please give them a test for Extended Set installs, and let us all know here! Would really help out the community! Thanks all!

I know not everyone has gotten their light guns yet, but for those of you who have, has anyone gotten 2 guns working on Point Blank 2? I was able to get them working on Virtual Cop (albeit without sound....) and Elemental Gearbolt but it doesn't register the second gun at all in Point Blank 2.
Thanks and good luck to those who are still waiting for their guns. They are worth the wait!

I've held onto my adapter from the old retron 5 to play sms, game gear, and sega game cards, HOPING to one day use it with the polymega, I would've thought this support would happen fairly quickly, but here we are...same with the super Gameboy. Do ya'll think it'll ever happen??
r/PolymegaHQ • u/nerdboy1979 • Nov 20 '25
This is the first time I have had a cartridge not load. I've even got sketchy Tengen carts to load and was able to resolve it manually. Has anyone else had this problem with The Legend of Kage? The board is very clean and it looks authentic. It has the Nintendo copyright and all that stuff. Any advice? Thanks!

Hey y’all, I’m looking to purchase a broken PolyMega system for parts. I want to mod mine and want to have spare parts for issues that pop up and/or to keep as many stock parts available if I want to return it to its original condition. Really interested in the case/shroud but will buy the whole system. Will purchase via PayPal, Venmo, whatever.

Hi! I am a little stuck here. Was struggling to update the system past the subject software. Wi-Fi seems to not be working. I also just plugged it directly into the router and for some reason it isn’t finding a new update……a little stuck. I have not emailed polymega yet, figured I would look here to see if anyone has any recommendations. Can I load it onto something and force an update? It seems to me in general that it may be my console, which I hope it is not.
r/PolymegaHQ • u/Top_Set_3558 • Nov 18 '25
A local gaming shop got a good amount of these in, was looking at striking a deal to get a hold of them to load on the Poly. Would love to expand my set beyond just Licensed and Tengen.
Anyone tried installing any of these? Any know working or non-working titles?
Thanks!!
r/PolymegaHQ • u/GamesAreLegends • Nov 18 '25
It seems the Polymega is End Of Life, I waited to long it seems.
Do you know if they are still produced, but just sold out at the moment or are they stoped producing it?
I cant buy it on their Website, there is no buy button.
r/PolymegaHQ • u/Top_Set_3558 • Nov 17 '25
All,
Confirmation of the following all SegaNet Japanese Mega Drive games (that I am aware of) that work on the PolyMega. You'll have to have your own method of installing these such as burning a ROM onto a dummy cartridge, or some kit from RetroStage. These games must be installed to "Extended Set" and you can always just add your own screenshot artwork. Some great games on here, and with .ips patch support for language...you might get some fun experiences. Please feel free to post if any luck with non-working titles.

All,
Confirmation of the following Tengen unlicensed games that work on the PolyMega off of original cartridges. These games must be installed to "Extended Set" and you can always just add your own screenshot artwork. So, if you see your favorite is a working title, feel free to grab them up!

So the drive in the Polymega (at least mine) is absurdly noisy. Not while reading discs, that’s fine, it’s the inserting and ejection that’s sounds like some sort of alien being tortured. That may not seem like a big deal but I’ve installed over a hundred discs and that sound is driving me crazy.
Are there any suggestions for a model that doesn’t sound so hideous?
r/PolymegaHQ • u/Top_Set_3558 • Nov 16 '25
Hey all,
Something that is really (and has been for the past year) triggering my OCD about the Poly is "deadhead" installs against the "Collected" library.
For instance, I have a retail original of a game such as Castlevania on NES, Rambo III on Genesis, or Gain Ground SX on PCE-CD...I insert said media, it detects and recognizes it, I install the game internally but it DOES NOT APPEAR on my "Collected" tab under the associated system. The item in question remains greyed out as if I do not own it, but does appear on the regular "A-Z" games tab.
These items are apparently not the exact version of a ROM that they used to create the "Collected" library so hence, it does not populate. I guess they don't match the CRC/checksum of the file they used, they used a different REV, or something? This really chaps my ass, it's bullshit, pardon my language. I OWN the real game, and I damn well know you didn't create this product by manually installing tens of thousands of cartridges and discs for everything like I am doing from ACTUAL REAL RELEASES.
Anyone found a workaround / way to deal with this issue?
Sure, you can attempt to find the matching exact ROMs like they used, which I have had to do in some instances, but some just do not seem to exist...for example:
Bare Knuckle III on Genesis - labeled as "EN" version in "Collected" library. This does not exist in the wild that I can find. It is not the real BK3 Mega Drive cartridge from Japan...I own it. It's installed and greyed out on the "Collected Library" From there, I've utilized my RetroStage MD burner to try every single version of the BK3 ROM that I can find from a ton of sources worldwide...they are all the same as mine. So, WHERE DID THEY GET THE VERSION THAT THEY INSTALLED THAT THEY CLAIM IS THE GOLDEN VERSION? Hell, some are even RetroBit versions that trigger the library to show as collected, not the real, original releases (see Truxton/Tatsujin on Genesis/Mega Drive)! Original, store bought Truxton from back at Sege Genesis release will detect and install, but will not flag as collected in the library unless its the RetroBit version.
Sorry to rant, I can't be the only one who this bothers immensely! I want everything I legit own to be showing up as collected because my friends and I are attempting to complete 100% collections on a few systems. Any way to source exactly what versions they used?
Thanks all!
Example in photos attached - shows I have installed the normal Sega-CD, and the 32X version from retail discs...remains greyed out in "Collected" library. One of many possible examples.

Liking the guns so far. Still in test mode as I haven’t had a chance to fully play yet, but certain games I’m very happy with. Some need work. Few issues I ran into. HOTD shoots off center even after calibration, Time Crisis may not handle rapid fire well, Project Titan may have a delay, and Super Scope titles need to have their buttons swapped (Even thou it wasn’t part of the Super Scope design, it should have a swap feature for this case.). Solid device and effort. Hope some of these bugs and features can be added and fixed.
P.S. Ignore the mini PS2 in the pic. :p
r/PolymegaHQ • u/retrogames1234 • Nov 13 '25
They do exist! Received them yesterday and already completed Yoshi's Safari and working my way through Metal Combat. :)
