considering the specs on the laptops are complete crap i'll pass.
i'd rather just get a megadrive skin made for my current laptop(if i wanted that sort of thing).

Is it backwards compatible with DC and Saturn?

And will it play DVDs?

International computers are always terrible. Their costs are much higher for parts. Even if the parts are all made overseas.

Sega seem somehow pure and clean in comparison to the big players today - for sony and microsoft gaming's not even their main source of revenue, and nintendo systems these days are aimed more at your girlfriends fat ass.

I miss the 90's...

*sigh*

I think it would take SEGA making another console for me to get me interested in the next gen consoles. I think I'm just gonna keep gaming on my 360 and my classic consoles for quite a while.

You know you can just get a vinyl sticker made to size to your current laptop and do the same....

I got my hopes up when I read the title. I knew it couldn't be true but I wanted to believe sooo badly.

At least it's not a linux handheld running stolen software.

I read about this earlier today and had a laugh. It will take a pretty hardcore Sega fan to pay 1k + for a Pentium with 4GB RAM and a 500GB HDD. I thought they were trying to save money and recover the business, not commit financial suicide?

Sega, quit fucking around with this shit and localize Yakuza 5 already :spock:

$1K? $2k? What does Sega think it is? Metal Slug homecarts?

I wonder how much money their dumb asses are going to lose on this? Weak specs for that price? LMAO!

Hope they don't skimp on the backwards compatibility. XD

Since it comes with Windows 8... would that backwards compatibility mean it comes with emulators? After seeing the TW stuff from CES this year, companies selling tablets with emulators included I wouldn't be surprised. But I don't think this is the case.
