Emulators have been the only way I've been able to play and try out NES and SNES games.

Ditto, although I had to share it with two brothers. There were quite a few times we wished we had an NES/SNES though. Games like SF2 and RPGs like Zelda. I dont think there were any RPGs on the Megadrive.

I've not tried any, maybe I should. Oh but I just saw an ebay auction end for an NES and a bunch of games. Damn it's so cheap. Maybe instead of buying a game on Steam I should go retro and pick up an old console. There's plenty of good games I've never played.
I suppose it is why emulators are so good. No cost and you get to play some classics. I still have a working Megadrive though. The Mega CD is busted now. The CD drive doesn't work anymore.

I don't know whether I can help you GP, but in my 'famous attic' I'm sure we have a Sega Mega, NES and a Game Cube....among other 'wonders'.....so if they're any good to you, you're welcome :¬)

I don't suppose you have any toasters in that 'famous attic' do you? :¬)
God knows why, but we got rid of our Megadrive. I think the only things we have left from our childhood are Star Wars toys.

I use to play my brothers games too, but one moved away and the other got married. They never moved onto the next gen consoles (except the Wii) so I've yet to touch one.

I never got the Mega CD, I think we just went straight to the Playstation.

I skipped the N64 and the Dreamcast (financially related) and I ended up with a Playstation as a present.
