Oh. My. God.
I want! I've got the original, and I still play it every now and then.
Apparently the audio isn't true to the original console.

Booo!
they could of made the controllers wireless too!
throw new ArgumentException (String, String, Exception)
That is totally composed of Epic and W1n!
Have to dig out all the old games and have a bash - although no idea what state my original console (or controllers for that matter) will be in!
Streets of Rage, used to spend hours playing that game. You can still pick up megadrive cartridges in games exchange and 2nd hand shops for a few pounds each... If this version of the console is really small and compact, can't really tell from the photo, it might be worth buying.

What next, the SNES?
I still have my original Mega Drive (next to my PS3). The switch isn't as good, and you have to keep taking the cartridges out and inserting them again but it works. Great piece of retro action.
Be interesting to see how these do though.
Its quite obvious why they did not include SOR2 since on youtube it highlights the units very poor sound. Not really on in this day and age.
Could be many things. The MegaDrive was pretty much built from off-the-shelf parts (the XBox of its day) so I'd be surprised if it wasn't using a System-on-a-Chip copy of the hardware, rather than anyone tracking down original Zilog Z80 chips for audio use or Motorola M68K chips for the CPU
