    Sega put all that work into really trying to make this a fun item, they wanted people to play and enjoy it. I don’t think they intended it to be an ornament that never gets played. Hell even the crapload of minis I already have all get played.

    Unlike most of you I actually play my stuff lol

      I'm honestly baffled that you of all people would criticise someone for buying something to display as part of their collection

        might have well just bought that plastic megadrive model kit instead.

          Or an actual Mega Drive but just put it further away.

            I'm not very good at gaming stuff on display. I feel intense guilt at the fact I own both an MD Master System converter and a real Master System.

                Anytime I go from 720p in to 1080p out the FM doesn't give me any scaliness at all. Across a bunch of systems.

                  Think it depends on the picture mode your running it through (Meister ect.) although I haven’t updated mine to the newest firmware so maybe they fixed that. But I had a similar problem on ps1, it really doesn’t work well with the framemeister at all. Not counting the abysmal resolution switching delay there are resolution problems with scanlines. I’d get scanlines a on a game but then it switched to a screen at a different res and bam scanlines gone.

                    Needs a firmware update

                      Yeah, it does that with 1080p out because the scan lines look like crap in 1080p mode. It used to display them but since the last update it doesn't. For scan lines or any filters setting the Framemeister to 720p is the way to go. Looks great, even on a 4K pannel.

                        Having properly seen one of these now, I would say my retroflag MD case is better built. (And more mini!)

                          Seriously? I have a Retro Flag MD case and while it's great it's not on par with the Sega unit. It's not totally acurate either. Did you see a PAL unit? Are they of a poorer build quality?

                          Comment


                            Nope the uk one is exact same build quality in every way.

                              No, it's on the latest already.

                                So scaliness will work 720p in and 720p out, that is, no scaling?
