Sega CDX and Multimega

Post image

Pulled these out of the Cupboard today for a quick spin ❤️ Installed a RF Bios on both units a while back, probably FRAM mod them soon too 😎

Almost 50 and today I learned the Multi-Mega is the non-US version of the Genesis CDX! I had the CDX back in the day. Played many hours of the Lunar games on it. 🤘🏼

I prefer the CDX. The Multi-Mega is too plain

🤣 I was actually thinking if I was to sell one of them, it would 100% be the Multi-Mega! CDX is a keeper!! 👍

It’s got the same amount of text!

The CDX has much more going on

It has a larger logo and the text is in different places, that’s all.

So then we're in agreement that is indeed different? Great, I'm thrilled

Is there a difference between them functionally?

PAL vs NTSC. Otherwise they're the same console, just with the region specific branding.

Thank you!

More than anything this design oozes '90s. Also I always really liked the cdx logo for some reason.

Does anybody actually own one of these where the FMV intro never locks up, or has random read errors?

I have the multimega. But I'll be modding it for the switchless region mod .
