sega Arcade Legends Street Fighter for £6.24 Direct to TV game, BARGAIN

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3721214.htm

absoloute bargain, they're £15 in ASDA

these are a 'megadrive on a chip' device they actually use the original ROM from the megadrive game,





absoloute steal, and great for hobbyists as you can hack them up so that you can play your Actual megadrive games carts on them!
(gets technical, lots of soldering needed, but good fun for those of you inclined, PM me if you want info about hacking the electronics)

    It has Ghouls and Ghosts too! Nutty- I paid £6 for just the cart of G&G about 5 years ago, classic game. If the soldering is within the reach of the averagely competent hobbyist I might buy this just in case the supply of old Megadrives at boot sales ever dries up. I haven't played mine for ages but the idea of never being able to play Speedball 2 again frightens me:eek:.

    Can you hack them to work with Mega CDs?:p

    Thanks for this.I got one this afternoon after reading about it here. My son is chuffed bits(15 years old) Funny how these older games are still very popular.
