warriors of the eternal sun is also a classic, well worth getting if you can

It was/is class, when I was 8 my mate wouldn't come round my house anymore because he got too scared when we played Buck Rogers, little puff.

I've just seen Super Skidmarks on Ebay and remembered if you put MooMoo or something in as a password you can race cows round the tracks. How sad is that man, I'm 33 for fucks sake

Getting the wand of lightening and then going off to slaughter some hill giants or spend the day wandering round the beastman caves, class.
Just looking at that 843 games ISO list and a few others stood out
Dune - The Battle for Arrakis
Command & Conquer
Ghouls & Ghosts
Gunstar Heroes
Landstalker - The Treasure of King Nole
Might & Magic - altho i think the SNES version was much better
Shadowrun - again i think the SNES version was better
Speedball 2
Sword of Vermillion
Turrican
and praying that it would'nt run out of charges so you end up saving after every fight

What is the Dune game like?
depends on the make of TV, mine has an analogue setting which is ideal for older games, but aye a Fatback TV is cheap as fuck and worth investing in if you are going to hammer the piss out of the older consoles.
You can get a PVM that would have cost ££££thousands back in the day for 20 quid!

Aw fuck I didn't think of that, I've got a 50 inch tele and nowhere to put another one
There is other ways to do it, you can use a modern TV and send the signal through Recievers which are expensive as fuck or through something a bit cheaper like this

depend on how far you want to go, if you are going to end with a house full of consoles (i likely will because im essentially the crazy cat lady from the Simpsons with games)
fantastic thread which is a great help

Little bit of help needed here like lads. Got my Mega Drive 1 delivered, connected it to new LG telly by Scart (yellow and white cables go into the scart). Some games play fine, some play ok and some don't come on at all but I can still hear them
Lion King and Sonic 2 just play as normal. Toejam and Earl and Theme Park show some screens but others flicker then show a black screen and Sonic 1 and Fifa don't show at all. I can't see how it's the Mega Drive so I'm assuming it's something to do with the new telly vs old console but I don't get how some play and others don't, even more confusing is that the same game can show a screen then I move somewhere else (say underwater) and the screen goes black

best advice i'll give you is chuck the original RF cable in the cupboard, its not stable enough for modern TV's as the refresh rate on modern Tv's is too great for the processing of it, instead order the correct cable for the megadrive you have from amazon and instead use that, a bit more stable.
A longer term solution is an upscaler, you can get them for about £20 on amazon
heres a quick guide to it
