This is the original one, I never upgraded it.

@@reviewinggames tnks for your replay means a lot to me. I will try the N64 games without upgrading the cpu inside the polymega.

I tried everything and I could not get it to work. If you want my advice don't buy it.

@@reviewinggames did you even try to update the firmware for both the controller and the dongle provided by the 8bitdo updater tool?

@@dnbsupporter5643 I'm going to try that right now...

It says "no more information at this time." So either I already tried to update and that didn't work, or there isn't an update. And I'll point out, that both my computers say that the site you download the upgrade tool from is sus and warns me not to go there ("not secure"?) what ever that means.I think I'm 100% done trying to get this thing to work. If you buy it to use on your Polymega good luck. Has been nothing but a PITA for me.

@@reviewinggames cool please keep me up to date if its working or not after the firmware update! :)

I did not upgrade the CPU in my Polymega. Only emulation issues I noticed while playing the games that I own was there might be a frame skip or very slight audio skip or glitch, usually happened during a cut scene, but never affected gameplay. Now there could be more issues happening with other games that I don't own but I wouldn't know what those are.

The shotgun was leaning up against the table that had the pick axe on it in the Mines. I think it was at the far end of the first room you drop down through the hole into.

Solid advice, thanks!

Oh I didn't think about taking it all in and looking around, I was too busy trying to get the heck outta there! But will keep that in mind for future eps. Def doing part 2 or chapter 2 when they release it. Thank you for liking the video!

I did something to mine when I first got my Steam Deck when I had trouble getting it to run Sons of The Forest. I talk about it in "Playing Games on Steam Deck' (Part 1). But it was something like 4GB VRAM in bios, Proton GE, Cryo utilities. I don't really remember because it was awhile ago, but you put the Steam Deck into developer options. And I have left it that way ever since and every game I've thrown at it just works (for the most part). I'm using a Xbox Series X Carbon Black controller and playing the Steam Deck docked to a TV. Anyways I would say just give it a try with what ever game(s) even if it says "not verified" etc and if you run into issues running the game (always try everything on LOW SETTINGS IN GAME SETTINGS) go on reddit and see if anyone mentions a fix or something you can try and do. But yeah, Steam Deck is awesome! Congrats. I think all the games are on Steam. And if your interested in "Horror" games, go to the store from the Steam Deck and scroll to categories and then sub category 'Survival" that's where I think you will find a lot of games you may like to play.

@@reviewinggames hell yeah man, thanks for the thoughtful response. I’ll look into that. I’ll have to do some sleuthing for sure online to get familiar with. I’ll check out your vid too. Super stoked to play fears to fathom and some of the chillas art games.

3DO is awesome! Yeah, American Laser Games made a lot of the light-gun shooting games for the system. I never found the light gun for 3DO but I have the "Justifier" gun that came bundled in with Lethal Enforcers on Sega CD.

@@reviewinggames The blue toy ray gun that looked like a 357? Yeah I had that one in the 90's as a kid but lost it over time. There is a 3DO gun but its ultra expensive now, & it costed too much along with the system when I was a kid. All I could remember is going to the mall and seeing it at the store, & playing the sample game with my buddies but none of us could afford it. Then two years later PlayStation One came out & it was very affordable for my friends. I was able to buy part two in High School when that came out.

This is actually a really great comment and I am glad that you mention that. I am for anyone playing their games however they want to, either playing original media or downloading digital copies to modern consoles. Some of these games like the ones you mentioned are quite expensive to buy today in the original media, I guess I wasn't really thinking about that when I was compiling the list.

That's awesome! I just bought a Series X! I'm hoping Valve puts Steam on Series S/X.

I'm also playing all these Steam games using a Series X Carbon Black controller. It's a fantastic controller!

Original 4 in 1 Classics Sega CD disc (not a back up) that was a double pack with Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective.

@reviewinggames ok thanks for that

Awesome! Congratulations! It really is a fantastic console. I'm going to have a 'recommendations for first CD games to install to the Polymega base system' episode coming out soon, for ideas of games to install with just using the base system. There's a lot you can do with just the base system!

Game Genie no, NES and Famicom yes

But you need to purchase the "Power Element Module" and has to be attached to base unit in order to play nes and famicom (famicom requires an adaptor to fit a nes cart slot)

That is the first level music from Monster Lair on Turbografx CD. Fantastic music in that one!

@@reviewinggames incredible thank you so much!

After updating the analogue Duo console I am able to play altered beast pc engine cd rom 1 with system one card inserted and cd inserted.

It def plays Saturn. What's great about this system is you can put your Saturn disc into the main console, import it, and then safely put your Saturn game away back on the shelf never needing it again. Stay tuned for future episodes where we will look at Saturn games and Bluetooth controllers on the Polymega.

You know why that seemed weird probably, bc that was actually the Pal version of that game.

@@reviewinggames So you won't say who that character was? Whatever. I just want to know that's all. However that's not the response I hope for. Anyway you did good on test those usb controllers but didn't include the one that the website says what usb controllers are compatible like the QANBA Obsidian Tournament Fight Stick. But that's okay. Anyway when I got my own Polymega along with other Module sets I will test the game US and Japan patch to test them. So keep up the good work on you streaming on You Tube. But fair warning: in future videos, don't say DeadPool or he'll pop up on screen from out of nowhere.

Oh, what is the girls name from keio flying squadron 2? Rami Nanahikari - The grandchild of an ancient family and a descendant of aliens who came to Earth long ago. She wears a bunny suit, the formal attire of a Key Guardian. After her last adventure she was enjoying her life as an ordinary schoolgirl.

My Hexen does work tho

Polymega resets to the logo screen when I launch Duke nukem zero hour or any n64 hack game. Its going in my part 2 episode.

@reviewinggames both of mine are authentic copies I believe. Maybe I ended up buying repos!

I'm pretty sure the issue is just with your Duke nukem zero hour as it is with mine. Try and clean your Hexen a few times thoroughly , delete the game and all data from polymega and try ans re import Hexen again. See if that works

I finally received my second polymega base unit a few days ago so they are shipping them out now. I am also looking foward to the n64 Analogue system.

Will include Mario kart 64 Mario raceway level in importing cartdrige games to em05 module for polymega part 2. I did record that level (forgot to include) and it does show the image on the Jumbotron tv correctly.

@@reviewinggames ok thats al i wantedto know. thank you for the info

You might want to try and contact support@playmaji.com via email and see if they can assist you with your issue.

did it , they are not responding as usual@@reviewinggames

I preordered the Lightgun feb 21' and have yet to hear any news about it.

@@reviewinggames GC01 Gun Controller is being revised for additional compatibility with Polymega App and Remix. Est. launch is Q2 2024.

With Polymega's track record I doubt the gun will be out this year!

@@rossbusters410 If it does come out this year it will be at the very end of it.

I saw that they released an update, I am going to wait and watch what happens before I update my system.

I have never tried an English patch, but I believe it would be the same as using the Doom Resurrection Patch for Doom 32X. Where you would download the patch, put that on a USB flash drive thumbstick in a folder titled Patch, and then select that file under "Select Patch" in options for starting game in Polymega menu.

Polymega had another name before they switched to Polymega but I don't remember what it was ? Was it Retroblox or something ?

@@reviewinggames idk, I just know my mom called every console the "mega" (because the Sega megadrive) so a console that runs many consoles is a poly(many) mega(console) in my mom's own language

That zombie game is Echos of the Living available on Steam. Although as of yet, only a playable demo has been released, the game is not officially "out" yet.

​@@reviewinggamesthanks!!!!! ❤

Im really glad that you said that. I didn't record voice over for Supreme Warrior for Sega CD bc I wanted it to feel like you're watching a movie.

I am going to try this thanks!

I can't connect with a 2.4G dongle. Is there a special method or procedure? If you let me know, I will be truly blessed!

Someone on the polymega FB group said it works but mine doesn't. I even updated firmware. I can confirm that the 8 button RetroBit Sega Saturn Bluetooth version works with a connected cable.
