  • the "p" is silent in the word "corps" you indolent, faccid, child.

  • your hairy hands look like those hands that grab you and place you back in the begining of the level

  • I have been looking into the getting a model 1 Sega CD. I can not find one on ebay so I assume that they are really hard to find and if found are really expensive. I don't think I will be picking one up ever. I have the model 2 so that will do. I just wanted to collect all models but a model 1 Sega CD is not a priority. I imagine that the model 1 is more prone to breaking.

  • @Chaoitcme

    The Model 1 is pretty rare these days because they are indeed prone to breakage. If you do find a working one, they tend to be a bit more expensive than the Model 2. I have one that works, but I never use it. I use my X'Eye instead.

  • @FatShawnKemp I see that they are harder to find on ebay and I never see them the flee market. I wanted to get one just so that I have all the Genesis models. I only need that and model 3 and model 3 is not that hard to find. I guess that I will just have to shill out some money on ebay the next time I can afford to do so.

  • you forgot to mention the aiwa mega drive which may be even rare than the laseractive.

  • LoL best thing about the Genesis 3 you should of mentioned is that it was so cost effective that they didn't even have an LED light to tell you it was powered on, just an orange sticker that you see when you slide the power button up.

  • Comment removed

  • copied games didnt kill the system, harldy anyone had a burner when the mega cd came out! even in the early days of playstation not many people had cdr drives!

  • @suckmytitsyoucunts

    No copy protection on the SEGA CD was a great thing... not for piracy per-se. It was very fickle with respect to any sort of disc defect, even scratch free discs with microscopic blemishes would take several minutes to load (if at all). It was probably the only system I have ever owned where the concept of making "backups" was completely legitimate.

    Funny thing was, you could make a copy of the "defective" CD on a PC and the backup would load just fine... terrible laser!

  • @MrGencyExit64 i am suckmytitsyoucunts lol, depends on your mega cd, some require an adjustment to the pot on the laser mechanism to read cdrs whereas some work fine straight out of the box. its the same for any console really in regards to reading discs due to the higher read speeds of pc drives, the same can be said of some scratched audio cds even!

  • I think his wife came home at the end.

  • dude the game gear battery pack works on that nomad as well

  • I would love to have a Laseractive system for my Laserdisc collection. That and the Halcyon.

  • Could the sega genesis model 3 unit also play japanese genesis games?

    Since you said there's no region lock, I just wanted varification.

  • I have a question- I just bought a model 2 Sega CD from my local video game shop and when I plug my model 2 Genesis in, it just doesn't power up. Every ac adapter is plugged in and set to go. Are there metal connector plates that go between the model 2 Genesis and Sega CD liken to the giant metal plate for the model 1's? I called them and they said I should just be able to plug it in and go, the model twos don't have any metal connector plates for the bottom. Do I just have a broken Sega CD?

  • @Jormungandr85 Let me clarify, *the Sega Genesis powers up but not the Sega CD.

  • @Jormungandr85

    Maybe it is due to a damaged Pico II fuse. There are replacements at RadioShack or online. There are also tutorials online on how to replace it.  The metal shielding is just to prevent interference and prevent digital noise. Good luck.

  • Also you should review the South Park video game for the N64!

  • When will you review Ballz 3D or Zoop?

  • I don't think the lack of copy protection doomed the sega CD; cd burners were very rare back then and not standard equipped in home PCs yet

  • GO GO POWER RANGERS hehehehe

  • Ur missing 1 Megga drive it was only released about 2 months ago it's kinda like the last 1 but smaller and it hooks up to new tvs. And it's not a rip of as it is made by sega. It cums with 2 controllers .

    I can take a picture if u want

  • @IanODowd

    is it a ''blaze'' sega megadrive ? if so .... its a rip off.... if not... id be interested to know what its like.

  • Impressive collection you've got here. You're a lucky man to have tracked down the X'Eye and Laser Interactive/Genesis combo, those are hard to come by.

  • Can you use a backup ram cart on the cdx? Also, does it have internal memory, if so how much? Is it more than a normal sega cd? I've been planning on buying one, but I'd like to know these things beforehand.

  • did u know they had a adapter for the sega game gear that played the sega master system games

  • @75edainsworth I've heard of it but was never able to track one down. Aside from having a screen and being portable, the Game Gear was nothing more than a slightly altered Master System to begin with.

  • awsome collection dude!!!

  • @ThatOneGuyISawAtBk You have a Firecore or a Blaze Mega Drive depending on what country it was realeased in. It came out a few years ago and isn't worth that much. It doesn't have the same hardware and emulates the original sound card poorly.

  • You can get the Power Base Converter to work on a Genesis 2 is you saw the back off a bit. I did it.

  • Will a japanese sega pac work on a US laseractive? Is it region free?

  • When you put all this shit together it looks like a fuckin' SEGA orgy.

  • You: The Sega 32X didn't sell very well, it only sold about 200...

    Me: WTF only 200?!

    You: 200,000 units lol Cool video btw as always!

  • cool

  • Announced in 2008 as the "Firebox" and "Sega Genesis 4" and released in 2009 as the "Firecore", a remodeled "Sega Genesis" console that featured built-in games: Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle, Alien Storm, Altered Beast, Arrow Flash, Columns III, Crack Down, Decap Attack, Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, Ecco the Dolphin, Ecco Jr., ESWAT, Flicky, Gain Ground, Golden Axe, Jewel Master, Kid Chameleon, Shadow Dancer, Shinobi III, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic Spinball

  • genesis model 3?

  • What about the WonderMega system?

    And the Teradrive?

  • @JackBandicootsBunker Yeah i was just thinking that, but the wonder mega is from JVC, and looks suspiciously similar to the "JVC x-eye" in gamester's video! i wonder if the wondermega is like a european version and the x-eye was the american?!

  • damn i thought sony was the first system to release game CD's.....guess i was wrong

  • @jaymantube DAMN STRAIGHT U WERE WRONG, im just kiddin with ya

  • damn, thats sick i didn't even know the CD existed in 1993

  • i restored an old arcade machine with a sega genesis 3 console. The console itself in my opinion is outstanding and will work on any t.v. from past to present and i've never had to blow into any of my old genesis carttridges. GOOD VIDEO!

  • the CDX logo looks like its stolen from the Commodore Amiga CDTV logo.

  • sega used cool names for their consoles

  • What would happen if you plugged a 32x into a Nomad? I am guessing that it would not work.

    P.S. I am jealous of your game/console collection

  • The CDX will be the most collectible and valuable in about 50 years.

  • can i come over to your house to ooh and aww at the jvc? i live in phoenix, az. lol

  • I only have 3 SEGA consoles. dreamcast, megadrive and Saturn but I do want to get more like the SEGA cd and 32x

  • @Gamester81 Now you just need an Amstrad Mega PC to round off your collection :)

  • Wow! Sega really brings you back to the 90s. Good times. I'd give up my 360 just to be able to go back to those days. Seriously.

  • you can connect the 32x to the genesis 3. it's a pain in the ass but it's possible.

  • Model 3 plays Mega Drive? Gamester, you just made my day.

  • Great Review!!

    Im lucky enough to have all but the JVC & Master Adaptor,I love Nintendo but Sega is so Freakin Awesome,the games are Amazing for all there systems!

    That Pioneer System looks Awesome,would love to find that at a yard sale ;0)

  • OMG i miss the system! My fav games were might morphin power rangers and sonic.

  • sega systems are amazing in my opinion, and im like 15, they are the best they last forever and they have great games

  • @TheSnuff1717 Well my bad then, because I honestly read back, and didn't see your post about the JVC X'eye. To me, it just looked like you were arguing about the Sega CD, to which point, I would have been correct, but oh well... shoot me or something lol!

  • @TheSnuff1717 and @medg2020

    It was not released in 94, or 95. The Sega CD was released in America in Oct 15, 92, and in Japan on Oct, 91. So you two tards can stop arguing now, because you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Look it up on Wikipedia. Other sources would be IGN, Allgame, and Gamespot.

    And Snuff, the manufactured date is different from the initial date of release for the system itself. Your unit was manufactured in in Aug 94 during that season's production run.

  • JVC stands for Japan Victor Corp. Victor replaces JVC in most cases in Japan.

  • @TheSnuff1717 You must be illiterate. Make a video and prove it.

  • @TheSnuff1717 You're a liar. Make a video and prove it.

  • @TheSnuff1717 It came out in 1995, idiot.

  • genesis is a poor system bro. Not only it has fuzzy and less defined graphics, but with 60 something shapes of poor color selection and the euqlly poor soundchip to match.

  • I had the original Megadrive system imported from japan here to the uk when i was a kid, it played all region games. It came with a copy of Mickey Mouse Castle Of Illusion. Remember building a nice collection of games. Great times.

  • The Pioneer unit blew my mind.  Never knew such a thing existed.

  • I had a powerbase converter with the back hacked off it fitted on th emodel 2 then lol

  • You *can* use the PowerBase Converter 1 on a Genesis 2, but you need to mod the case, like cutting it, to make it fit on a Model 2.

    Nice review, by the way. :)

  • man those systems are awesome...all the sega systems are the best imo....sadly i only have the 2nd version of the genesis but im looking for all of them if i canf ind them

  • Pioneer Laseractive!!!!!!!!1111

    soooo want one. T.T but its like a grand every time it comes on ebay.

  • I love laserdiscs. I have a ton of them. There's a laserdisc/SEGA CD/Genesis combo????? WOW. That would be fun to have. But how do I play 32X on that Laseractive??

  • hey gamester, can the 3D glasses work off the power converter?

  • Can you play Japanese and PAL Mega CD games on a North American Sega CD?

  • Sega Nomad was released in the states as I vividly remember seeing Sunday Toys R Us ads advertising them.

  • HA!!!! I still have some Laser Disks and they still work it was annoying you have to flip them half way through the movie to watch the rest tho!!

  • genesis was my 1st system

  • Dude you have the sweetest Sega console collection! Thanks for sharing it us old-school gamers.

  • Can a model 1 Sega CD work with a model 2 genesis?

  • @technocrow100 no thats why the second one came out

  • in front of me is the sega mast, sega sat, sega genisis

  • Nice review!

  • Sega Genesis looked bizzare with all them add-ons! Lol! They shouldn't have messed with Nintendo. Now they're playing without power. Haha!

  • I got the sega cdx when I was 6 they had em at a toysrus glad i got it :D

  • I have a Sega Nomad but it's broken.

  • NEPTUNE!

  • Gamester, gimme the OPEN button off you CDX! The one off my Multi Mega is missing. :( Lol.

  • I never had the money for one of these my mate did and i remember Night Trap lol..

    By the time i left School, got job to afford £300+ consoles the 3DO came out and i wanted a PC for Doom but they started at £600-700 to run Doom so with only £500 saved up i got the 3DO

  • Most consoles in those days would play CDR, even the 3DO but as some said back in those days CDR's and CDRW's ontop of PC's where expensive.

    My mate used to do me PSX games, where you had to use a weight on a spring in the PSX Console.

    He told me his 8X CDRW Drive cost £200 and blank CD's £3-4 each!

    Take the old 2X DVDRW they was £600-700 when they came out at about the time of the PS2 release and blank DVDR was about £2-3 each!

  • where could i get the sega cd thing you showed and the master system converter? and does the 32x work on model 1 (16-bit)?

  • where could i get the sega cd thing you showed and the master system converter?

  • Yo tuve el tandem megadrive con Mega CD y 32X, me dejé una pasta, que años más tarde, me arrepentí de no haberlo invertido en una PLAYSTATION.

  • Wow great collection but weeds the game gear? I have one it also eats batterys up like crazy.

  • @Gamester81

    Sorry if this question has been repeated, but to clarify what you said: On a normal model 1 (or model 2) Sega CD, i can burn games on a CD and play them? It has no protection? Thank You.

  • nice collection

  • I Dont Think The Genesis 3 Plays All The Genesis Carts Or Does It?

  • @MonsterJamAthuzest it wont play Virtual Racing. You can get it to play it through a simple soldering job though.

  • Question. With the JVC How the hell do you burn disks? I would like to download them off the net. But evey time I burn a disks the system rejects the disk. It works with real sega cd disks

  • @bigjake52 try buring at slower speeds. Less than 10x is preferable. The drive in the Sega CD is only a 2X speed drive.

  • @thatguyontheright1 I burn at 2.4x Always have. I have to do it for cube and wii games. so I got useto it

  • does the cdx work with 32x?

  • What's better? The Sega CD models 1, 2, or the Sega CDX? Anybody know which is better?

  • @ktty6015 Cdx if you have limited space but it is a bit expensive

  • @DaJakanator My Dad Baught One Off Ebay Used For $1,550

  • There is game called Verbatim? :P

  • Who's bad?

  • you are awesome!

  • can you play burnt sega cd games on every sega cd model

  • My neighbor has that Pioneer SEGA Genesis/CD thing. I asked him about it and he paid like $400 for it back in 96' it has all the extras to it. You know what they might be cause IDK what they run for. And I need a genesis system to play my games on.

  • @abcpat100 Pioneer Laseractive with PAC input (cartridge input). Quite a rare system, and I would get it if its for the right price. But it is incompatible with Sega CD and 32X add-ons.

  • @rejectofsoul24 it is

  • 5:31 I SEEE YUUUUUUU

  • Hey John, many thanks for approving my video response! I know you're probably REALLY busy and have better things to do than watch my videos, but if you ever do get the chance please feel free to check out my videos and tell me what you think!

  • Is there any ways i can play sega cd disks without a sega cd?

  • @iwanabrawl no one found a way except pc. get an emulator called GENS and i believe if you had a sega cd game it will play it

  • can you plug in the 32x on the nomad?

  • @orkybork nope

  • @orkybork yes but its very unstable

  • do you u have any cd 32x games? if so what were they

  • wow i never saw any of the other systems before i never knew that they has cd game play or that there was a portable system.

    Im from australia and I had the mega drive but it didnt have the CD player to it

    man i wish i had kept my mega drive and master system 2 I might try and buy one

  • I got a boxed Multi Mega for my birthday... I was like :O

  • I had that game a long time ago for the sega cd. mighty morphin' power rangers. My copy was broken though. I can only play one freakin' scene.

  • No game gear :((

  • I saw the LaserActive Genesis controller at a store in a $5 bin and thought it was just some third party controller. I found out what it is but the store closed before I could pick it up.

  • would a sega cd play cds or only sega own cds ?

  • @Annihilator1111

    if your on about music CDs then it played them

  • Comment removed

  • I lol'd at your reaction to Power Rangers.

  • Great vid man but, not a big deal, you didnt talk about the master system.

  • @gabbogabbo He has a separate video for that.

  • you got the first model of sega cd lucky i search one

  • GREAT review!!

  • hey wait how u can play cd copies en a sega cd do u need some mod-?

  • @iorel1982 No actually you don't need to mod the system at all to played copied cds.

  • @Gamester81

    Yeah, It was 96/97 when cd burners came out (or even common, but even then it was expensive i.e $20 a disc and you needed a pc).

  • @Gamester81 +1 For security failures

  • @Gamester81 yeah exactly why the hell would they have bothered to make an encryption system to prevent people from copying games back then,nobody had a cd burner back then,come to think of it nobody had a regular cd romfor their computer then either, also nobody had a pc for that matter lol

    i did however have a gamedoctor made by bung enterprisess,a chinese company ,it was for my snes and copied games to 3.5' flopy discs ,they had ones that could copy both snes and genesis games too

  • i cant believe he likes the sega cd model2 better than the model1 the model 2 was a peice of shit it didnt even have a motorized cd drawer like the model 1,it just had that crappy peice of shit flip top lid,they only made it that way to save money & like he even said ,its way more common,i still have my mode1 sega cd,not that i ever used it,but its way cooler looking & more rare & its made much better,i paid like 300$ for that POS back in the day &i only got 2 games beside the ones it came with

  • @iorel1982 nobody had cd burners back then so no need for protection. it was several years later that they came out and they were around $300 for the first year.

  • just got a cdx today. Pretty awesome system

  • Damn,I want another Sega Genesis lol.

  • GREAT VIDEO have you got any sinclair spectrum zx ? I had one years ago some good games

  • great videos, but dude you gotta be more careful with your stuff!

  • I always wonder why they made so many damn genesis

  • Just to add that the Genesis 3 uses a SoC-like array where most of the guts from the original Genesis were built into one single chip.

    Problem? some games wont run due to incompatibility

  • Hey gamester 81 could you tell me if the 32x is compatible with the JVC x'eye? Also is the x'eye region locked?

    Thanks

  • Thanks for letting me know the genesis 3 will play megadrive games, Ive seen a boxed genesis 3 here in England which I'm now going to get

  • Do you and The Nintendo Nerd chat about your collections? I sure would like to be there and chat along.

  • Hey I aslo have the sega genesis system and master system power base converter. You need to use the Av/ Out cables instead of the T.V. adapter cables. And I got Double Dragon for 3 bucks @ a used book store. Good luck Gamester81! Your Collections ar my only hope.

  • @ClassicGamer88 he did not know what he was sell

  • that sure is a lot of systems

  • lol this is uh a uh sega uh master um mega um drive um genises um genesis um golden axe um altered beast um sega um cd um um um um um :D

  • There's a few more variants after the MegaJet. WonderMega 1 & 2, AiwaMegaCD, MegaPC and a few more. There was also a Power Base Converter released for the MDII.

  • What, no Radicas? I realize Plug & Play systems aren't your thing, but I think Sega actually made them and it wasn't a pirate thing like the NOACs.

    Anyways, awesome video dude.

  • great sega collection!

  • 物の扱い方が荒い ゲーマー失格だね

  • whoa, that lazeractive is bad ass

  • The JVC x'eye is Badass

  • I Have A modal 1 genesis and sega cd

  • yes it wiil.

  • Will a model 2 Sega CD work with a model 1 Genesis?

  • @marlinlee

    Yes it should be compatible.

  • @Gamester81 Actually it is; I do own the model 1 Genesis & Sega CD 2 combination. Only downside I find is just a little too wide for my liking.

  • @marlinlee

    It does, I have mine hooked up right now. Never had a problem.

  • @marlinlee Yes it does Classic Game Room has a Model 2 Sega CD under his Model 1 Sega Genesis.

  • @marlinlee I have a model 1 genesis with a model 2 sega cd and it works perfectly

  • @marlinlee

    Yes, it's compatible, but it's gotta be hooked together just right or it's glitchy.

  • it does work, I own a model 1 genesis and a model 2 sega cd so yes it is compatible

  • @marlinlee Yes, I had a model 1 genesis with a model 2 sega cd and a 32X

  • Wicked collection. I'm in the process of getting every region console, haha.

  • hey dude - I think the only other machine missing from your Genesis/Mega Drive collection on this video would be the Japan only Wondermega - not to be confused with the JVC X'Eye, which was actually based on the follow up, WonderMega M2. Would love to see your review on that system with it's high quality S-Video output and MIDI and Karoke support, as well as better sound capabilities.

    Have you managed to get this one yet?

  • laserdisc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can you review it pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee???????????­?????????/

  • laserdiscs kick ass

  • So if you were going to buy ONE setup for playing genesis and sega CD games what would you do? Model 1 Genesis or Model 2 Genesis & Sega CD model 2 or would you get a CDX?

  • Yeah this is an earlier vid of mine. I've gotten better at not saying "ah" as much. =)

  • lol np i am just glad you didn't get offended usually people flip out with rude comments lol

  • @Sillyzombie666 - seriously???

  • @Skolly yup, i once said i hate people who video tape tv shows/ movies with a camera and post it i got about 30 death threats lol
