there was nobody left to produce the chips used by the mega drive into the 2000s, tectoy certainly wouldn't be manufacturing them. what people think is being sold in brazil as "a mega drive" has been either a cheap SoC or a desktop J2ME box with a poorly coded emulator since then

internet armchair videogame historians say that it's SO WEIRD how long the sega mega drive kept being sold in brazil and ignore that you could still get the same sega atgames SoC hardware in the USA during the same period including the radica and the handheld

you ever just accidentally favourite one of your friends tweets from your after dark account? haha yeah me neither

just the button 1, so probably a contact issue, but jesus, i already cleaned the board... and a LOT of gunk came out of it, and the seller said it was working beforehand... ugh

this is why people just use mega drive controllers instead

i paid $70 (the cheapest i could find without importing from overseas) for a master system controller that's yellowed and chipped, opened it up and gave it a good once-over cleaning the contacts to get it to a good shape, and one day later it STILL stopped working 😓

The SN76489 Is Fine You're Just Not Using Periodic Noise Enough

oh right, i made a (unfinished) cover of virgill's vite and plack, that's a way better example of how good the sn76489 can sound!

if i tried today (and i should!) i could probably get something even more impressive out of the psg chip but for 8 years old i really like this track, at that point i hadn't heard anyone else use periodic noise for bass (i've since then learnt it wasn't COMPLETELY unheard of)
