Thing with these mini MegaDrive clone consoles is...they're all ****! The sound emulation is awful as someone mentioned and some of the games don't even run properly. Not to mention the plasticy body and stiff tacky d-pad. Literally everyone posting on here already has a system that will run a MegaDrive emulator as good but likely far better than this, whether it be on PC, android phone, tablet etc...yes, even windows phone.

Why would anyone who wasn't around "back in the day" want to play a bunch of old games with terribly poor sound? Why would anyone who WAS around "back in the day" want to play the games they remember in a far worse state? For anyone who says "it's just sound", you are obviously part of the first group...

...at £50, this is not even cheap really... I gave it heat, but then I started thinking and wrote this... :man:

What is the difference between this and the other version?

What other version is there ? Do you mean the console one that connects to a TV ?

The Sound Emulation on these is awful, it's off key and too slow. All the Blaze/Firecore Sega Megadrive systems have the same flaw in emulation.

Are these actually any good?

no idea , been trying to get a mini nes at a reasonable price for ages. will give this a go in the meantime

Got some GAME credit so tempted to get this myself as loved the likes of ESWAT, Golden Axe and Shinobi back in the day (oh the memories). I'm sure if any of you have got kids too they'll get their monies worth from this.
