Exactly one year after announcing the Super NT, Analogue is back with the Mega SG, promising to do for the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive what it's already done for the Super Nintendo.
The Sega MG is similar to the Super NT in that it uses a special chip called an FPGA to simulate the original hardware inside a Sega Genesis. While there are plenty of Sega Genesis emulators that provide an incredibly accurate experience, buying an actual clone console that can read your Sega Genesis cartridges has been an entire other matter.
The M30 controller comes in black and white variants, with a blue power button on the black model recalling the Japanese Mega Drive's schema.
If you're hoping to recreate your tower of power — that would be a Model 1 Sega CD, a Genesis, a 32X, then a Power Base Converter for Sega Master System games, or a copy of Sonic & Knuckles with Sonic 3 in the top — then we've got good and bad news. While the Sega CD will work — either Model 1 or the side-mounted Model 2, thanks to an edge connector that matches the original console's — the 32X will not.
