I got two new 6 button retrobit controllers for my . They worked for an hour, then both died at the same time after I resetted the game. Then I got an original Sega 6 button controller. Worked fine for 2 days, then button X died. Now I'm wondering if the controllers are such junk or my Mega Drive is killing them. Is that even possible? I measured the ports during a reset and couldn't find anything unusual there.

Today's recommendation is «Chakan: The Forever Man» released in 1992 by Extended Play Productions and Published by Sega.

A good 2D action platformer.

For some time now I was thinking about presenting not only via pictures but short video clips that don't exceed the Mastodon server's file size limit. 🗄️

Finally I arranged to capture, edit and publish my first video directly here on Mastodon. 📼

When you've got 40 seconds and want to know what going too fast in Sonic can lead to, give the video a try and me some feedback. 👌

Today's I recommend this pinball game from Sega Genesis / Mega Drive released in 1990

These days I played a lot. One of a best pinball I played.

It has touch of fantasy / hellish thematic.

Do you remember other games presenting you a password at the end to be used in a successor or other title of the series? 🔒

I experienced this while finishing Zelda Oracle of Ages. Obviously it can be used for advanced playing of Oracle of Seasons. 🍂

Today I modded my Mega Drive with a 60 Hz switch. It worked out fine and now I am happy to enjoy classics like Sonic on original hardware the way it's intended. 🦔💨
