Genuinely lovely little set up. I think I am going to be the next person to buy one of those little cabinets, just seem perfect for retro goodness
cant wait for this little beauty to arrive. fingers are well and truly crossed that it works! hunt to find cables before it arrives is now on!
It has its lovely features I am sure
Just would be more at home in the "homebrew piracy, no time for old retro consoles I just emulate them" thread rather than one full of people who embrace the REAL old skool

The Megadrive is 9v and the MegaCD 10v but both have the same connector if I recall correctly. Just one to watch out for when you power the old girl up.

The cabinet is fantastic but you have to watch the weight on the middle shelf. I have now swapped the Xbox and Saturn around as the shelf was starting to bow from the weight of the lardy Xbox.
Any predictions/suggestions on what will become the rare/must have games from the 7th generation machines?
Mine is Demon Soul, sold under 2 million and only released on the playstation 3, with dark souls, dark souls 2 and likely bloodbourne having cult following, I can see Demon Soul vaule growing.. but with the Advent of PSN and PS Now, I'm not sure if its even worth collecting this generation.

I think only a few very select games will become rare.
Digital availability will most likely kill off any games that aren't collectors editions.
Always wanted one of these when i was a kid so thought i would treat myself -
Its in pretty good nick.
Also my fave arcade game of all time -
Case is a bit cracked but it didn't cost loads and it plays flawlessly !
I need to get into my boxes and see what MegaCD games I actually have, nothing as good as that from what I recall!
I rarely use it though as the Sega PSU is that large I can't have TV, MD and MCD all on a 4 way adaptor...
The Megadrive and Mega cd was about £90 with around 8 games, 2 controllers and a few other bits.
Final fight was £18 shipped from the bay. And its awesome
That brings back memories. I used to have the mini version on that console. Think my favorite game back then was Road Avenger lol!
Yeah i could probably have waited and searched around for a better deal but i'm impatient !
There is a whole host of games i plan to buy now, wife is going to kill me

Tomorrow I will hopefully visit my gold mine of a charity shop!

annoyingly this MD2 says 10v on it and the connector is slightly smaller than the Megadrive 1 version. TYPICAL!
However the MD1 psu works with the MCD2.
New PSU for the megadrive should arrive in the morning....HURRRRY!
