Been a long time

Been well over 5 years since I’ve seen it. Mom bought it for me in 1986. I got the everdrive in the genesis. I want to see if the phaser works on genesis. If not I’ll have to hook it up.

Sega Master System - faulty 7805 voltage regulator

I recently repaired a Sega Master System 1 that would no longer power on correctly. After some troubleshooting, I found that the 7805 voltage regulator had failed.

I replaced it with a compatible regulator, and now the console works perfectly again. Always satisfying to bring old hardware back to life!

The Master System 1 is such a nice piece of Sega hardware, and I’m really happy this one is running again instead of ending up as parts.

Does playing 8 bit Sonic run better on the Genesis?

I’ve been really wanting to play the 8 bit Sonic games, but I have a burning question that no one seems to have the answer to. Does the 8 bit Sonic games run better on the Genesis than they would on the Master System? Like do they use that extra hardware for a boost or is it the same experience between both?

My retrospective look at Bonanza Brothers including arcade, all ports and spin-offs. What’s your thoughts of this 90s game?

Got my master system. Any suggestions for exclusive games?

Got my master system lately and now I wanna know. What games should I get? They have to be exclusive which means they're only available on the console (no version for the genesis as I'd get that version instead) and if there's other ports then this one has to be the superior version.

Feel free to leave your suggestions here.

Finally got a CIB copy of Space Harrier, this is one of the games I only saw in the catalog/poster back in the 90s

Razing Core (a shmup in development for SMS)

I haven't posted about this for 10 months but wanted to provide an update as I'm still working on it!

The game is about 70% complete and will be done this year. I plan to release it digitally on itch (https://badcomputer0.itch.io/) and then a physical version.

I intend to release some longer footage once the stages are more final, but for now here's a short clip of Stage 2.

Master system tv wire

Guys,

I'm trying to play my master system, but the wire or TV just don't want this to happen.

Is there a wire I can use instead on the intended one? Possibly that uses more modern adapters like SCART or HDMI

Does the pal 3D glasses card adapter work on Mark III?

Hey guys, I just bought a set of pal 3d glasses and coincidentally I'm expecting delivery of space harrier 3D for the Mark III, would I be able to use the card adapter in the mark III? I saw many posts and comments trying to do the opposite, but it didn't work due to shape of the adapter and extra checks on the sms for bios, region etc, anyone that tried the opposite yet?

Thanks!

This level has always been the most nostalgic for me, most likely because this level kicked my ass as a kid way too many times

Are Sega Mark. III games compatible with the Mega-Drive?

Hope this question is on-topic, but i'm aware that the Mega Drive has a master system adapter for SMS games as a form of backwards compatability but will this also work for the Mark 3?
