    Sega Megadrive PlayTV 6-in-1 Direct to TV console with 6 games - Sept 04

    For the Sega collector that has to have everything; bit like Nintendo's iQue, but doesn't seem like the games are interchangeable.



    Snazzy pad too.

    That's really very nice.
    I'd love a 6 button version. I wonder how hackable they are. I'd get one, but I don't want to be limited to 6 games. Such a portable MD would be so handy for travelling.

      I actually used this quite a bit at the Toy Master Chain's, private toy fair a month or so ago.

      for what it is its pretty good ... somin about the d pad felt odd compared to a normal MD pad... but all else was perfect.

        will it work with UK TV's? might invest while i am in japan for 5000Y its not bad although you can get a megadrive with at least 15 games for the same price.

          Megadrive and 15 games? That include a Japanese copy of Flicky? That'll be a fun thing to try and find...

          I personally don't like the look of it, like the way they mold in where the LED was on the Megadrive 2 then use a normal LED just above it... ^_^;

          Some of the games are fairly uninspiring too... Sonic, good. Puyo Puyo Good (although Puyo Puyo 2 would have been better), Golden Axe, good(ish), King of the Monsters, sorry your taking the piss now, Chameleon Kid? I mean WTF?!?!

          It could have been a lot better with games like Gunstar Heroes, Ghouls and Ghosts, Tatsujin, Strider to name a few and if they just wanted Sega games then...

          Alex Kidd, Super Shinobi, Columns, Bare Knuckle, Bonanza Brothers and Ecco would have been a nice collection.

            Yeah the mix of games is a bit strange really.

              did i say you could get flicky?

              anyway megadrives are two a penny where i live, cash converters sell em for a tenner with the super rare sonic 1 and hangon/columns/road rash games, and the games cost ?2.
              I know the jp megadrive costs a little more but you can still find a similar deal in Softmap or some junk store. Anyway only analy made people bother with the JP systems!?

                Bit off topic: with all these consoles being shrunk down to the size of a joypad, how far up the console ladder do you think they could go?

                (i'm praying for a Saturn version )

                  Actually tokyochojin, there is quite a noticeable dip in performance between the Pal and JP Ntsc megadrive, if you have only played the megadrive via a Pal machine it might be worth hunting out a JP machine, you could be plesantly surprised

                      I really enjoyed Kid Chameleon... (until a bug in the game prevented me going any further). Sorry.

                        Cool

                        but the games should have been better

                        Super Shinobi
                        Streets of Rage 2
                        Thunder Force III
                        Sonic 2
                        Devil Crash MD
                        Gaiares

                        Now that would be a kickass six-game portable

                          Alien Soldier
                          Bare Knuckle 2
                          Contra
                          Gunstar Heroes
                          Super Shinobi 1 or 2
                          Vampire Killer

                          That'd be the sweetest compilation ever
