Keeping it retro, with the Blaze Sega Mega Drive Portable!

Posted by Craig Evans On July - 25 - 2008
The Blaze Sega Mega Drive Portable Craig Evans joins us again for a take on Sega’s first console since the death of the Dreamcast back in 2001 caused them to stop making systems. But this time, it’s a handheld.

Somewhere between Medal Of Honour and Metal Gear Solid, we forgot what gaming was all about, instead focusing on high tech graphics and wireless controllers.

The heart and soul of the Sonic The Hedgehog days is dieing rapidly.

And just sometimes, nostalgia kicks in and I yearn to return to the simpler days of the Nintendo 64, or even the Sega Mega Drive.

But for just £30 you can grab a handheld, full colour version of the oldskool Sega console and begin button bashing your way through Sonic & Knuckles, Shinobi or even Golden Axe.

The Blaze Sega Mega Drive Handheld is a 16-bit pocket pioneer, perfect for any fan of the classics.

The riotously-retro little gadget can even be connected to the TV for some, very poor quality, big screen gaming…just be sure not to break the shell suit out.

Even more impressively, all three classic games are built into the machine, so there is no need to start hunting across eBay to find your favourites.
