STRAT Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 it took almost half an hour to load a game into my commodore (of course if I had luck and didn't get the TAPE LOADING ERROR ). Is mega drive faster_? Or you load all weekend games to play 10 minutes._? yes yes! the mega drive was one of the first original console machines. fore-runner to todays playstations and Xboxes. the games are cartridges so they load instantly (well, in less than 5 seconds then, literally) and are arcade standard (which was the point). at the time the megadrives and the games for it were equivelent to costs of the playstation of today, but ebay sell them and the games for literally peanuts!!! i remember my speccy tho, 1/2 hour of loading a game from tape, then the barst would crash out! http://www.nemoprod.net/emu/console/npmegad.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IC Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I had a Phillips Videopak(?) in the early 80's which was a kind of Atari rip off. It had proper cartridges too. Ran the full Nintendo gamut when I got older. Super Nintendo was the bees knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
