    I just bought an emulator with 2 wireless controllers and 45000 games from various consoles between 1978 and 2008. Loving the megadrive section - Splatterhouse, Strider, NHL Ice Hockey 94, Micro Machines, ECCO, to name a few. Well worth 50 quid.

      It was almost an arcade machine inside. Try Chakan, James Pond, all the Sonics, Kid Chameleon, Road Rash, Desert Strike, and Sparkster (way better than the SNes version), Aladdin (same, better than the SNes), and Toe Jam and Earl 2, to name a few.

    I’m ashamed, I thought it was an Atari Jaguar at first and then I saw the Sega logo.

    I’ve got my old NES, SNES, Genesis and 2600 and associates games in a box in the garage somewhere. I should find out if they work, but (1) I don’t have anything I can connect the 2600 to and (2) I don’t have a TV with RCAs anymore so that rules out the other 3 too. fuuuuuuck. thank goodness for emulation.

    I just saw the top two thirds, and had to scroll to see the punchline and the comm - what a pleasant surprise! For me, it’s the 3DO but that’s too niche for most.
