On Saturday, I interviewed Kevtris, the coder behind the Analogue products, about what to expect from his upcoming Mega Sg update, and today the new firmware has been released publicly. In our chat, Kev also revealed that the Mega Sg scaler/scanliner is going to be ported to the Super Nt, that an Intellivision core will […]
The Analogue Mega Sg just got another firmware update, both for the jailbroken version, as well as the “official” firmware. Honestly though, there’s zero reason to use the official firmware; Even if you predominately use an Everdrive for Genesis and SMS ROMs, this jailbreak allows for Game Gear and Colecovision ROMs to be played as well!!!

The firmware and more information can be found here and pics of […]

The game was canceled in 1994 due to developer Psygnosis losing faith in 16-bit game […]
Analogue has just released firmware version 4.7 for the SuperNT that fixes a bug with Super Game Boy. No further details on the issue were given. Also, there’s no v4.7 jailbreak firmware available, so if you were enjoying basic cart support from your SuperNT, it’s best to hold off: https://support.analogue.co/hc/en-us/articles/360000557452-Super-Nt-Firmware-Update-v4-6 As a side note, while I […]
