Mega Sg

The Mega Sg is a home video game console manufactured by Analogue, released in 2019¹. It runs games developed for the Sega Genesis, Master System, Game Gear and SG-1000, systems released by Sega in the 1980s and early 1990s during the fourth generation of consoles. Rather than use software emulation the Mega Sg uses FPGA chips to reimplement the original machine's behaviour. The Mega Sg was discontinued alongside the Super Nt in 2022.

Konsolation was created in an edition of 1,000 units as part of Hyperdub's 15th anniversary celebration. ==Reception== The Guardian gave the Mega Sg four out of five, writing: "Playing Streets of Rage 2 or Comix Zone on this thing is like experiencing a remastered recording of a favourite album, or a digitally restored version of a classic movie ... the Mega Sg makes Sonic and all the other games I have tried feel fresh and contemporary." The Mega Sg was named the Time best inventions of 2019 award, an Editor's Choice Award from Wired, an Editor's Choice Award from Tom's Guide, an Editor's Choice Award from IGN and an Editor's Choice Award from PCMag. Engadget gave the console an 86/100, with one of the only complaints being a lack of 32X compatibility. ==References==
