i found an interesting hongkong-console, which was sold here in germany

NOT interesting because of the possibility to play sport-games (the WII can do this much better) BUT interesting for his compatibility to sega-mega-drive games.

VERY INTERESTING this console gets here because of this

with this you can play mega-drive games directly from sd-card.

good thing is, that its cheap and compatibility seems to be very high.

i think, this console is from the same factory than the mega-drive-portable (gopher) handheld, which i mention also somewhere here in this thread and which i bought some months ago. advantage of the console here is the possibility to plug real mega-drive-joysticks or pads to it.

Nice little box with a touch of a Wii. Good to see even 2x 9pin joy ports on it
Also there is a real "card slot" present, in first link it almost looks like a dummy.

yes, its very good, that megadrive-joysticks could be used. i have some 6-button arcade-joysticks for it. even c-64 and amiga sticks should work, but they only have one (or sometimes two) firebutton(s). but, for example SONIC THE HEDGEHOG needs only one.

some customers dont gave good ratings to this console, but i read them and they all just give ratings in comparison to the WII. nobody rated the mega-drive-compatibility and i think most people just dont know anything about the possibilities they would have, when owning this passport-sd-card-module (because of playing roms)

for people who dont speak german, here are the google-translated sites to the products i mentioned above:

i think again, of buying such a thing maybe i do (especially because of the passport-module), than i have 4 megadrives *LOL*
