If you want to use the hypothetical 32X on your Mega SG, you will also need to spend another $100+ on a DAC (digital to analog converter) and also some modified A/V cables.

They don't make it cheap!

@nintendoPLAYROOM

The only people who will own one of these are hardcore collectors and people who receive free ones to review

lol @ the affiliate link

@Farts_Ahoy

They constantly promote crap like this (unrelated to Nintendo) so they can get free review copies and demo units sent to them.

Looks like he also lost his neck

@JayJ

Buy a Super NT man! If you love the SNES, it's the best way to play on an HD tv

@TJSpyke

Ya, but it Nintendo Life doesn't promote it on their website, they won't be sent a free review copy when it is released (which is what Damien wants).

@Cotillion

ROMs run better on original hardware/FPGAs than they do on emulators.

@SuperWeird

My bad, meant to say Night Trap!

When trying to find tenuous links between @Damo's articles and their connection to Nintendo, sometimes there's a slip up.

Before anyone says anything stupid, this is Nintendo related because Night Trap came out for the Sega CD and Night Trap is available on the Switch.

@ThanosReXXX

"And yes, I've read enough info on the Polymega in general, just not about the Everdrive bit."

It's stated in the FAQ on their website, the most basic form of research one could investigate before giving their opinion on the console 😉

@andykara2003

Read it again. This isn't an FPGA system.

@ThanosReXXX

You are apparently the "voice of reason", yet aren't even aware that Polymega themselves have stated that Everdrives won't work on their machine.

Do you really know anything about this product at all? Or just basing your thoughts on wishful thinking?

Did anyone actually manage to get through this entire piece? By about the fifth paragraph when I still hadn't learned anything, I gave up.

"Who edits the editor?"

Apparently nobody.

Everything about this 'console' and the people producing it has been questionable from the start. I think anyone who buys this thing, that is if it actually comes out, is taking a huge leap of faith.

@Furealz

Get the Super NT from Analogue, it's the best way to play SNES carts (and ROMs via SD card...) on an HD TV.

@ramu-chan

The technical 'guts' of the console were designed/programmed by a guy named Kevin Horton.

The firmware updates which allow you to play ROMs on the NT Mini, Super NT, and eventually the Mega SG were created/shared by Kevin Horton.

It's not a feature promoted by Analogue, but it's designed by the creator.

@sleepinglion

It was created by Kevtris. The man who designed the hardware. It's only "unofficial" in that it is not endorsed or mentioned on the Analogue website.

@ramu-chan

Both the NT Mini and Super NT load ROMs via the SD Card using a firmware hack created by the guy, Kevtris, who designed each console.

So no, Analogue is not "all about original cartridges"

I will be in Japan this April buying cheap Sega games and returning home to unbox this bad boy May 1st
