If you just bend back the pins of the 72-pin connector so that it's really snug, you can play games just fine without even needing to push down and click the games into place.

If I remember correctly, it had something to do with a video game crash or something along those lines.

For real? How did they manage that?

Also the reason why it has better sound is because it uses a Yamaha sound chip. Later on Sega replaced it with some shitty IBM sound chip that made the games sound like ass.

Wondermega/X-eye uses the same type of laser as the model 2 Sega CD, the only difference is that the console has all custom pcbs made by JVC.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are more reliable, mostly because they are all in one board instead of the clusterfuck that is the Sega CD.

The PS1 was the pinnacle of retro gaming for me. I played a lot of RPGs, so this was my go-to console.

I also owned an N64, and while it had some very solid first-party titles, there just wasn't a very strong library overall. I did nonetheless like the console's design, and I actually prefer cartridge-based formats over optical ones.

On the subject of redesigns, the SNES 2 was very nice, but has since become an overpriced collector's item. Didn't care much for the redesigned Genesis / MD models. Sega kept removing functionality with each revision. I don't think the Genesis 3 even supported stereo output, and then the Firecore Genesis wasn't original hardware - just some shitty third-party reproduction that renders heavily distorted audio.

Everything that is 15 years old is retro as fuck.

Here have a slick SNES Jr.

>>2908081

I think it holds up well for now (other than the fact I personally don't recognize the first Gen as having all components necessary to be declared legit consoles), but you're right: it was made up after a clear trend had already emerged, it's much more rule-of-thumb than it should be, and eventually the entire schema will have to be greatly refined or more likely retired for good.

I always assumed the NGC came out later for some reason. I forgot it had a 2001 launch too like the Xbox.

>>2908107
hopefully never. allowing xbox and ps2 would be absolutely retarded because they are not retro.

>>2908118
Honestly, none of these systems were "retro". They only became "retro" after internet hipster misappropriated the word to mean something other than it was intended to be.

They are. The PS2 will turn 16 in two months.
Just look how much more expensive the N64 and it's first party games got in the last 2 years.
In ~2 years the same will happen to the GameCube.

What do you mean?
The only thing that could weaken the effect is the first Wiis had backwards compatibility.
But even with that it is bound to happen.

>>2908153
maybe not the hardware but some games might. a majority of the most valuable games are unloved games from the past.

>>2908132
Xbox and GC and PS2 have content which all play like modern titles. The only thing they lack is the nowadays forced DLC + netplay + HDDs (not counting the Xbox), but gameplay wise they are at the point where the hardware did not dictate the limits of the content anymore. They also functioned on the multimedia as much as games (except the GC).

>>2908171
>the hardware did not dictate the limits of the content
It literally still does.

But it is true that the leap between gen 5 and 6 was probably the biggest yet.

>>2908153

The GCN was the last console Nintendo produced that I gave a nickel-plated fuck about.

>>2908183
I predict in 10 years the WiiU will be the new Dreamcast with everybody having a hard-on for it.

>>2908162
>Retro style is style that is consciously derivative or imitative of trends, music, modes, fashions, or attitudes of the recent past, typically 15–20 years old.
Exactly. None of these systems are retro per se. They're just old.

>>2908184
I've been predicting this as well, it's totally gonna happen.

>>2908185
I guess that is true. But the definition shifted over the years. Many define old as retro now.

>>2908184

Why? Literally: in what fashion could one have any appreciation for that chimeric piece of trash whatever? It can't even fully commit to its own gimmick: it's like the N64 turned up to 11, and I say this having owned a fucking N64 as a child.

>>2908203
Because it has a lot of exclusives and not many own the console.

>>2908181
>It literally still does.

No it doesn't. The only thing that hardware changes nowadays is the graphics quality, and the "size" of the game. But you had Grand Theft Auto on the PS2 as you have on the PS4, and there isn't much core gameplay difference.

Compare that to, say, entire gameplay ideas based around the fact that the SNES could scale. The gameplay was custom tailored to functions that only some piece of hardware could do.

DC was the tipping point in that regard, since it still had a fixed pipeline graphics. Everything after that had hardware T&L and programmable pixel shading.

>>2908213
>isn't much core gameplay difference.
The physics alone are worlds apart.
Your point works for gen 7 to 8 though.

>>2908184
The Dreamcast had a big library of excellent, unique and innovative games though. The Wii U has The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2 which are both brilliant, and then a bunch of overrated Nintendo rehash mediocrity like Mario Kart and NSMB.

>a bunch of overrated Nintendo rehash mediocrity like Mario Kart and NSMB.
Those are the fun little games people like. Just look at the price of any Mario Kart from Super to Wii on Ebay.

>>2908184
Wii U has about 10-20 solid games on it right now, it'll be slightly North of that when it's all done. Could easily become the Dreamcast of its time

>>2908245

Are you implying the Dreamcast only has 10+ good games?

I think people are overly-fond of both the Saturn and Dreamcast. I would still take either over the Wii U. I would not even accept a Wii U for free; that's how little confidence I have that I wouldn't accidentally break the damn thing (prolly by breathing on it wrong).

>>2908217

That's just eye candy. Turn it off and games play the same.

I own the system. The Wonderful 101 is one of the best games I've ever played. Bayonetta 2 is great too. Pretty much everything else is mediocre at best. I'd say it's better than the N64 but far from a great system.

Not at all. I really want to like it but Mario Kart, NSMB, 3D World, Hyrule Warriors etc are all super average. There's just not much there. I haven't played Tropical Freeze yet, maybe I'll like that.

I have high hopes of Zelda U, and it's a better system than the Xbone and PS4 right now but it's still pretty low tier.

>>2905658
It looks like a toilet, all the sega consoles have a terrible design.

The question is Super Famicom, N64 or PSX.

>>2908354
The Dreamcast is the exact same, it has a handful of stellar games and games that since have a really niche following became overrated, the Wii U will be that "misunderstood" console with nothing but gems yadda yadda yadda.

Also the Xbone in terms of games is the absolute worst of all.

I like my setup better.

Also, sorry for the shit lighting / setup, should have picked another room / another camera / another time of the day to take these pics. Here's some more info:
- Megadrive 1 HDG (with EXT port), no TMSS
- 32X, vanilla (for now)
- Sega CD 1 fully restored (laser, belt replaced)
- Sega CD BIOS trickery around regions using the Everdrive
- Wireless controllers
- MegaModem
- All-in-one region/frequency switch on the side
- Lazy overclock mod on the back (13.1mhz) with CPU HALT switch
- Everything connected in RGB of course
- Obligatory Tower of Power using Bubsy because why not, it's a huge cart and it's quite a shitty game. Should have done it with Virtua Racing instead I guess.

>>2910158
Very nice setup. Tower of Power could be bigger but it's basically a waste of money so I understand.

Would you (or anyone else) recommend getting a 32X or SegaCD? Is there actually anything worthwhile to play on them?

>>2910158
>that switch on the Mega Drive

wot

>>2910296
Mega CD: yes, because essentially all your CD games will be free then (no copy protection at all) and there are great titles on it as well. Favor a MCD2 for lower maintenance / to go cheap.
32X: mixed bag. It has a handful of great games. Get one if you have a Megadrive flashcart, or if you find an unit (and games) for cheap, but don't focus too much on it.

>>2910296
No.

>>2910305
I put it here long before owning a Sega CD 1 (but I had a Mega CD 2). If I were to re-do that again, I'd probably either put it on the right side (and use that console with the Sega CD 1 exclusively) or try to reconstruct a front control panel similar to the original one, but adding more controls to it (overclock, region, freq) - but I don't have the skills for that.

>>2905705

Maybe some day.

>>2907883
>WHich also shows that the sorting of consoles into "gens" has its problems.
True, but it's a functional rule of thumb for the most part.
You say 4th gen and people think of the SNES, Genny and TurboGFX, you say 5th and it brings to mind the PS, N64 and Saturn, etc.

Surprisingly well. They're infrared so they need some line of sight, but the range is great, and the angle is wide. I play on a projector with my consoles on the side of the wall (away from me and 90°) without issues, not even lag.
I didn't dare to buy some for a long time because the internet kept telling me they were shit (because IR). In the end I found out that the Internet was wrong, as usual.

>>2912314
Didn't like it when it came out and I still don't like it now, anything wrong with that? Also as stupid as this complaint is I really missed a "reset" button in the soap dish.

So just shit taste.
The only thing worse was the power brick.

When I saw that one, I couldn't help myself but wonder if Sega could have make a compact redesign of the Saturn years down the road - assuming the console had been relevant still.

>>2906674
Game Boy DMG adapted in a larger box with some modifications: – Random glitch selector – Distortion Potentiometers – Glitch video out – RCA Pro Sound – Noise generator and one chanel insert. With a 16 steps analog motor sequencer to control the pitch, mute and retrigger notes and a 8 steps digital sequencer to sequence the analog sequencer.

>if Sega could have make a compact redesign of the Saturn years down the road - assuming the console had been relevant still.

I was thinking about that a lot, and if they'd be willing to remove the mpeg cart slot, then they most definitely could make the console much smaller and cheaper.

If they can also make parts of the memory use single chips instead of two half-sized ones, that could also save a lot of space. But it might not be possible for some parts, like the frame buffer.

Those two could make the system 25% less wide for sure. If they rework the CD Drive, maybe integrate it to the motherboard, and use an external 5V DC power supply, then they could also make the console half as tall - but the carts inside the cart slot would stand out a lot like that, which would be an issue.

What I wonder is if they could produce more pieces of the hardware into single ASICs, like combining the VDP1+2 in a single chip, or if that would result in a chip too complex to combine efficiently (not to even mention that one part was made by Hitachi, the other by Yamaha).
