@Orokosaki I have been keeping an eye on Polymega over the last year. The only real negative I have seen is people complaining about is high price. The system itself and in particular the OS has had mostly positive feedback from what I have seen.

Some people will see value in this. I for one do see the value in this product (I am not an expert in all things emulation, but I have a large collection of SNES / Megadrive / Mega CD / Saturn EU & Jap / PS1 games. Where my original systems no longer work. I also have alot of N64 games, a few 3DO games / Atari Jaguar games, these could potentially be supported in the future)
I also have limited amount of space, that makes this system very appealing.
But to each their own

@MrJK I have the mouse working ok, but I can’t remember how I got it working.
For the USB games, select the game with A, but instead of starting the game with ‘Home’. Press Menu to remap the controls (this is how I got most games to work)

I got the A500 Mini a few days ago. I still own a lot of Amiga Disks, so I have no shame in adding titles I already own. Truth be told I still haven’t played the games that are preloaded.
I been playing Cannon Fodder, North & South, Lemmings, Shadow of the Beast, Defender of the Crown, Batman the Movie, Hunter.
I would recommend this to anyone who had an Amiga

I’ve pre-ordered. I like what I see so far

I am interested in a Polymega, I have a huge library of original Mega CD & Saturn games in EU and Japanese. This is a convenient way of playing old games. My Mega CD V1 with 32x is a nightmare for plugs (they are huge)

@StuartGipp lol. Just going to play darts on my PSP

@Verg brilliant

@Verg they could have had a new feature “Karl’s video game diary” with weekly updates

When I saw the picture, I thought it was Karl Pilkington. That would have been funny, now I’m deflated

I never pre-ordered, but I am very interested in this, I have a retro collection of many systems and games, most of which are boxed up due to lack of space.
This would be very convenient

I would guess it will be Dara

I have Rondo of Blood on Wii U and also the PC Engine Mini. Excellent game, would love for this to be released on Switch, along with SOTN, that I have never played

This reminds me of the Barcode Battler. Conceptually interesting, but that price.....

@datamonkey from what I remember the Amiga had better Sound than the MD Version.

Edit: Did not read the above post before I replied. Doh!

I still have the Game Boy Advance version of Speedball 2, and they sell Ice Cream

I am now gonna have to buy an Evercade
But would really want these on Switch. Will be interested to know if the ‘Bomb the Bass’ soundtrack is included on Xenon 2

Edit: commented before fully reading the Article. No Amiga versions is a big mistake

Why Sega cannot release these games individually on Switch as part of Ages line baffles me

@Damo in your article you have relegated Saturn to “much more besides”
Blasphemy.

😢

@Damo thanks, looking forward to your review

On the Saturn side, will this run Japanese and EU? I have loads of Sega Ages Japanese Saturn Games, but I haven’t got a Japanese Saturn. I had a cartridge converter but it doesn’t work. I also have a Saturn Japanese Chase HQ and SCI on 1 disk. Really want to play these.
Thanks

I had a lot of these games on the Amstrad, So long ago, I can’t remember if these were £1.99 like Mastertronic Games.
Absolutely loved Super Robin Hood (had speech, which was always impressive on 8 bit)

Speaking of Sega Ages, Shinobi and Fantasy Zone have appeared on the UK eShop for 23rd January release @Damo

I wonder if 1UP will ever get Daytona? A 1UP Arcade with a Steering Wheel, Gear Box, Pedels. With Daytona and Sega Rally......

I would be interested to know what year of NBA players this will be (preference would be 1996, like the Saturn TE NBA Jam)
I would love for Arcade 1UP Arcades at home, but would not have room for them - though I would make room for the Star Wars 1UP Arcade.
Sega need to add GA2 to Sega Ages. Come on, Chop Chop

@nmanifold “I loved those magazines you named, Jaz Rignall was my hero”

Ah yes, that was a quality Mullet 😂

That was a fantastic race

@Mr_Pepperami ha ha, I have a Jaguar with CD attachment all boxed in my loft. Those designers sure had a sense of humour to put something in the market that looks like a toilet seat lol

I had the 32x with the MD/MCD1, loved Star Wars Arcade, and VR, although the uk Plug situation was a nightmare - you needed 3 of the big Sega Plug Adaptors, that were too big to plug in next to each other on a 4 plug extension

Edit: And WTF were those metal clips?

Those take me back. A sad loss.

I always remember the Gryzor Art, as it reminded me of Predator. I didn't realise the same guy was responsible for so many different game covers. A real talent

Love this game. Would love this to release on Switch

For Starwars and Snatch fans

That was a fantastic race for Senna, up there with Japan 88, Monaco 92
