You had a flatscreen HDTV in 1991? Damn, found the time traveler! 😉
I can hear this picture
🎶 segaaaaa green hill zone music intensifies 🎶
The soundchip on that thing was awesome <3
Wait, is that stretched to 16:9? I may have to rescind my upvote.
But also… cool.
I found an old TV on Craigslist for $10 for my Genesis.
Damn, here I am sitting in front of a gaming PC with 4k monitors and I am legitimately jealous of your setup right now. Emulated 8 bit and 16 bit games look like crap on modern screens thanks to the upscaling and what not. TIL I need to check the Craigslist more often.
Or get an upscaler for retro consoles.
Not those cheap HDMI adapters, but like a retrotink or a GBS-Control. They can still look good on LCD.
Man, that’s a museum piece at this point. It’s what, mid-80s? If it looks bright, stable and clean without any maintenance that’s… increasingly rare.
I saw that too and started dry heaving
this reminds me of when i was staying at my uncles house and it was the first time i got to use a game gear :)
I can hear the music
S E G AAAAAAA
Now you just need a model one Sega genesis SCART cable with inline audio to plug into the headphone jack and an OSSC to perfectly multiply the scan lines up to HD resolutions! Oh and also to set your HDTV into its gaming mode to reduce input lag.
Still got my Mega Drive too. It’s sat in the loft though.
