We played so much Mega Drive at home, that the controllers kept wearing down. My mother went to Fame Music in Amsterdam, asking for an alternative to the pads and the employee recommended her the 6 button power stick. She bought it and it still works almost 30 years later.
So would pushing the limits of the Sega CD instead of demanding that we all run out and buy yet another $160 addon. Ironically the Sega CD version of so many of those games ended up being the best. And the scaling and 3D graphics were sometimes better on the CD. Hell imagine a world where sega had put those same tens of millions advertising the Nomad.
The PowerBase Mini FM converter from Stone Age Gamer was a really cool add on for the Megadrive, letting you play Sega Master System games (same as the Master System Converter) and also listening to the FM sound audio for the games who supported.
@@RetroGamerBoy I’ve never tried the WKK ones. The official 6-button IR ones I have are surprisingly good considering the year they came out. They work from a decent distance (easily 10 feet or so), and last ages on decent batteries. 😊 The nice chunky receiver that plugs in the front also adds a nice dose of heft to the tower of power too lol
Those are some awesome peripherals and add-ons. I think the 32X also improves the picture quality of your regular Mega Drive games compared to the basic Mega Drive cables. I never heard someone say the SG Propad 2 was their favorite controller for the Mega Drive but you do you. I can only hope you pick up the 8bitdo M30 soon. That controller is just far to good to ignore.
Scandalous no mention of the Everdrive :). For me I'd say its a must have in modern age what with the price of games being what they are. Even better if you get the Pro model you can play CD games and 32x games if you own a 32x. I'd also say the newest wireless controllers from 8bitdo & Retro-bit are a great investment. I have the 8bitdo M30 controller and in my opinion its one of the best modern retro styled controllers that I've ever used. Not that I have one, but you could even go so far as to include the Rad2x HDMI adaptor. Not everyone has a CRT or a scaler like the OSSC. So the Retrotink based Rad2x is a good option for folks want to hook up there MD to a modern display. I get where you were going with the official accessories, but there are lots of modern accessories that bring new life to the MD :).
@@ScotsmanGamer I have not anything against everdrive. For you it might be a perfect product and that is absolutely great🙂👍 I just mentioned that it is not for everyone.
Great video as always Mike, I love your enthusiasm and honesty. How about a list of modern peripherals as a part 2. 6 button pad definitely deserved to take that #1 spot!👍🏼👍🏼
Отличный ТОП! Очень завидую людям, которые смогли поиграть со всеми этими дополнениями на старте их выхода. У нас в России в 90-е, к сожалению, всего этого небыло и если оригинальную SMD найти было не проблематично (лично у меня была чистокровная Японка), то периферию мы видели только на картинках на коробках и в журналах. Изо всех дополнений, если их так можно назвать, к SMD у нас продавались пиратские контроллеры с возможностью включения турбо режима (почему-то Белы с синими и красными кнопками) и взломщики кодов. По поводу совета по приобретению дополнительных устройств, вспоминается световой кабель (Via Cable) для игры вдвоём в Zero Tolerance, и с точки зрения игрового процесса, и с точки зрения коллекционной ценности - очень интересная штука.
@@RetroGamerBoy у нас и сейчас не проблема найти пиратские консоли и картриджи, иной раз попадаются и достойные экземпляры, но чаще не стоящий внимания хлам.
You should pick up the mark 2 arcade stick as that gives you six buttons so you can play games like Street Fighter and also has the autofire buttons as well. I would also include the '4 Player adaptor' as well if you want some four player Mega Bomberman or NBA Jam goodness.
@@RetroGamerBoy another one but isn’t top 10 material is the two player link cable for Zero Tolerance. It also works with the Doom 32X romhack as they added in Co-op.
A very great peripheral is the Per4mer Steering wheel. It is the perfect way to play driving games. I never knew about it on its days, but I found about it in a search a long time ago. I tried to find one on ebay for some few years until I found one around 3 months ago, but I did not win the bid. About a month ago another one end up in ebay and I could buy it finally. After using it, I can tell you that is a completely new and better experience to play driving games, specially Outrun, using the steering wheel with a big scren TV and sound bar. And unbelievable, driving games games do not look bad using 16:9 aspect ratio, I even think they look better, but just refering to driving games.
Great video. One thing to keep in mind if you have the 32x and the power base converter. You will.need to remove the 32x to use the power base converter. Master system games do not work on the 32x.
It's all about the official Sega 6 button controller for me. That thing is still my 2nd best controller. I'll never forget the first time I saw the mass of power units and cables that came from a full Tower of Power, it made me laugh because the plugs were so large you had to use an extension cable that had wider spacing between sockets, else they wouldn't fit next to each other. The chunky buggers!
I have an extremely rare micro switch version of the European Arcade power stick, its a but of an oddity. I got it from a car boot sale at my primary school in Lincolnshire back in 1999 and the internals are the same as the Japanese version I own, so I know its not modded. It has a smaller knob like the Japanese version. I can only think its a very early version of the stick from the first wave they released in the UK or something. I've never come across another one like it.
The dust covers are incredible--we've picked up a few for consoles that don't get the most play--and I love that they form fit, LOOK like the console, and has cut-outs for the cords. I adore the idea of the Power Base Converter too--how cool is that! Pieces like those are the best. The 3 in 1 power cable--are there any overheating issues there? That's been my fear in adopting it and I've heard claims, but I don't think anything has been proved. Sega CD was a buddy of mine's first CD player. Totally agree on the fun of physical collecting for opening boxes, looking over devices, getting a tactile experience in feedback of what you have in your hands.
really enjoyed this video Mike, ive never seen the dust cover before and now I need to own one hahahaha its crazy how these add ons bitd had a major impact on Sega and confusing the customer base back then, some say that Sega never recovered after the flop of the 32x, I always loved the Mega cd and still have a lot of passion for it today, I was the same mate when I got my mega cd it was my first CD player I remember getting a load of iron maiden cds and just listening to music for hours hahahahah the sg pro pad 2 ive been after for a while still not managed to bag one I agree that the 6 button joypad was a true game changer for us Megadrive boys back in the day
Ya that constant flow of add-on was confusing but now that making collecting for the console awesome Scott. I'm still trying to bag a Mega CD Karaoke machine.
Amazing add-ons! My favorite are the ARCADE joystick and the powerbase! I bought the powerbase converter for my segaGG and it is so cool to be able to play SMS hits like Kenseiden, Shadow Dancer and co-ops like scramble spirits and time soldier.
For add-on bang for the buck, you cannot beat the Arcade Power Stick. The quality was out of this world, the transformation of game play for every game was astounding. The Mega-CD gave you access to a FEW mind-blowing games, but in the end, it's hard to justify the price. I'm glad we bought it, those few great games have stayed with me to today, but it does fail on a bang for the buck basis.
Glad to see the joy sticks coming in pretty high. I have two for mine. I like the arcade feel for a home console so much so I have pairs of joysticks for my nes, Snes, ps2,ps1, Xbox, as well. Awesome video as always. Thanks 😎
Love the video mike. A great list of add ons. The arcade stick is very comfortable to use. I remember playing altered beast with it when I was young. Beautiful boxed mega CD, excellent condition. Sol-feace is a great shooter. Dust cover is a must, I'm always dusting my megadrive 😁. I desperately need a 6 button controller for my eternal champions, with 3 buttons I dont even take the cartridge out of its box. Awesome upload mike
We didn't get the modem or the karaoke those really add a lot to the tower size. But we did get the speakers. I haven't seen a genisis karaoke add on for sale in years
The sega manacer shouldn’t be missed out as well and there was also the 3D glass called the victormaxx stuntmaster, But my most interesting (yet in prototype) addon is to allow you to play gamegear games on the master system and once redifined you should also run it trough the genesis master convertor, This adaptor does realtime color mapping,it will be a must have.
Hi Great video ! My favorites are the PowerBase Converter, Arcade Power Stick and the 6 buttons gamepad. I Had de SMS converter for my Genesis back in the day but i think the 3D glasses dont work with it if i remember ?? That why i still have my original Sega Master System from 1987 ! And everything still works ! 3D Glasses and all ! :0) I also had the Arcade Power Stick and use to love it with Thunder Force 2 !!! but i sold it with my genesis and master converter in the 90's. But about a year ago i bought myself back the same genesis model 1 HD and the Arcade Power Stick a bit later and a sega 6 buttons gamepad and i love it !!! Sega Nostalgia Overload ! :0) SEEEGGGAAAAAAA !!! :0)
@@RetroGamerBoy Nice ! Me to box and Everything :0) i didn't open it for about 30 years: in the closet ! im glad i kept it all those years ! :0) wish i did the same for my Genesis and games ! ;0) Have a nice day thanks
Some really neat stuff my friend from across the pond. That six button controller looks pretty neat. I could never understand why the first party controllers never had turbo buttons (except for the TG16). Even today, none of The big three have turbo buttons on their controllers. I don’t get it.
The Lethal Enforcers gun is the one Joe Lieberman brandished to demonstrate "Realistic violence in video games" during the Senate hearings in 1993, which led to the creation of the ESRB the following year.
Genesis mega drive was the best console ever with lots of addons. The 4 way play allows 4 players playing at same time like fifa or nba. There is also sega activator and the manacer. Micro machine and skidmarks contains 2 extra ports and add 2 extra players. Sonic & knucles allow to insert sonic 2 . And play with knuckes in sonic 2 Awsome!!!!!
Impressive video and Add-Ons for Genesis. I should mention that I just tried playing Sonic CD for the Sega CD last winter and was blown away by how well the game was done for the new system, but it was a dying trend. In addition, this spring I played Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse as well as NBA Jam and I was satisfied with those games as well. By the way, I had no idea that the Genesis could be connected online and play games with someone like that, and I had no idea that it had its own dust case . Thanks Mike for letting me know these things. Here's a video idea for next week, this time from me and @Michael MJD. th-cam.com/video/g2hr8CgU3uM/w-d-xo.html
I have a question about your super 6 button controller. If you play Doom32x can you map the strafe to the shoulder buttons? That would be C + left or right. If it can I'll get one right now 🤣
I've got the karaoke unit, but I do not have the Genesis Sega strip or most of the Genesis peripherals. I'll start collecting for the Geni this year I think.
I have a few retro consoles. But I can't find box protectors for my Japanese Sega Saturn or my PSP. The place I used to get them from no longer ships to the UK, was wondering, does anyone else here know of a place that does console box protectors?
I end up check eBay for them. I used to get them from Germany but the company I used won't ship to the UK, it's too much fuss now and they are to small for it to be worthwhile to them.
Ohhh, i don't know how to say this but, i kinda stopped paying for my Netflix subscription because it was preventing me playing video games at night, every time i wanted to do so a new tv show would've just popped out and i told to myself i just see 1 episode but i ended up seeing more until it was past midnight so i decided to stop the subscription so i can play some old school n new video games at night
@@RetroGamerBoy Yeah lol we should complain to Netflix customer support for preventing us playing video games xD Their stock has been falling for past few weeks from 600 bucks to 180 recently, thx god i didn't buy any at that price However since it's becoming cheaper i think i can own some in my portfolio
I like to mix it up. People from all over the world watch the show and the Genesis is more than just a name. It had its own exclusives, peripherals , and collectors editions.
The 32x was released 11 days after the Saturn. Wow. That's such a ridiculous decision. Did nobody teach the Sega higher ups about market cannibalization?
How come u love 32X it only came with 20 games and only 3 to 6 of em were good enough to play The rest of the peripherals i didn't even hear back in my age of 16 bit era, there were all absent in this dump, except the arcade stick i saw few in here
Great list. As much as i love the modem though it is essentially useless. I think maybe a better item for the list would have been the sega cd memory cartridge, which is a must if you play any RPG's for the Sega CD as the internal memory just wasn't enough to save those massive files. Also i totally need to get a dust cover.

We played so much Mega Drive at home, that the controllers kept wearing down. My mother went to Fame Music in Amsterdam, asking for an alternative to the pads and the employee recommended her the 6 button power stick. She bought it and it still works almost 30 years later.
It's amazing how hardwearing these controllers and pads are. Those SG-Pro 2 Pads our my originals
Awesome Sega Genesis collection. Thank you for showcasing plus some history
My pleasure, it's great to see other peoples collections
*the Master System convertor is nice but the 8-Bit FM adaptor is even better!* 💡
What's that?
I had that 6-button controller, too, although it was a licensed variant called the SG ProPad 6 in the States.
There is the SG Pro-pad and a the SG Pro-pad 2, both great 3rd party controllers
16:36 We are all weird like that Mike, that's why we are here. loving the content!
That's good to know 😅
The Mega Drive add-ons made it awesome for collecting good video mate. Just looks awesome all setup.
Yup, I would love to get my hand on the VR prototype.
The SG ProPad 2 was my six button Megadrive controller and its turbo buttons were the only way I could beat RoboCop vs Terminator.
It's such a great pad, I love play with this pad.
Amazed about the all in one power cord. Saves a bunch of hassle lol
Yup it is super useful, and frees up a ton of space.

I don't have a model 2 l. I think once I've finished the model 1 load out I'll pick up a model 2.
The official infrared wireless controllers were also a fantastic upgrade when they first came out. As long as you kept still while playing.

I still don't have one. It is on my most wanted list and would give me an almost end game Mega Drive.
I have a question about your super 6 button controller.
If you play Doom32x can you map the strafe to the shoulder buttons? That would be C + left or right. If it can I'll get one right now 🤣
You can only assign a face buttons to the shoulder buttons, so A and c could be assigned. Assigning directions as well would be awesome.
aint no way bro forgot the sega cd karioky unit and the genisis power strip
I've got the karaoke unit, but I do not have the Genesis Sega strip or most of the Genesis peripherals. I'll start collecting for the Geni this year I think.
Did you pick up the Activator Ring ?
Not yet. I'm saving that for when I go for the Genesis exclusives.
I have a few retro consoles. But I can't find box protectors for my Japanese Sega Saturn or my PSP. The place I used to get them from no longer ships to the UK, was wondering, does anyone else here know of a place that does console box protectors?
I end up check eBay for them. I used to get them from Germany but the company I used won't ship to the UK, it's too much fuss now and they are to small for it to be worthwhile to them.
Ohhh, i don't know how to say this but, i kinda stopped paying for my Netflix subscription because it was preventing me playing video games at night, every time i wanted to do so a new tv show would've just popped out and i told to myself i just see 1 episode but i ended up seeing more until it was past midnight so i decided to stop the subscription so i can play some old school n new video games at night
I have that same problem 😅
@@RetroGamerBoy Yeah lol we should complain to Netflix customer support for preventing us playing video games xD
Their stock has been falling for past few weeks from 600 bucks to 180 recently, thx god i didn't buy any at that price
However since it's becoming cheaper i think i can own some in my portfolio
@@RetroGamerBoy Kalibri was my favorite in 32x i don't know why but i loved that game, i still play it sometimes via a good emulator
Tag hatte den selben für snes und für sega ein 6 baten controller
I love the 6 button controller.
Ok but put Mega drive first, you’re in England.
Wow, what really helpful constructive criticism.... 🤡
I like to mix it up. People from all over the world watch the show and the Genesis is more than just a name. It had its own exclusives, peripherals , and collectors editions.
@AdisneakerFreak or should I say AdisneakerFuck ?
@@RetroGamerBoy yes of course but stay true to yourself and put MD first as that’s it original and global name. Just not in North America. 🤷♂️.
All I can say is Now your playing with tower of power ooohh soooo sexy 😉 🤘
🤘😝🤘
The 32x was released 11 days after the Saturn. Wow. That's such a ridiculous decision. Did nobody teach the Sega higher ups about market cannibalization?
It's insane. I think they were hoping that first adopters would be the Saturn and then everyone else would go for the 32X.
You doubt of the criteria on this video when a sound cable for the 32x gets rank 8 while the 32x itself gets rank 9.
Well it's my video my list. Post a link to your top ten if you have a different top 10.👍
@@RetroGamerBoy Nah... I'm not youtuber and I coudn't possibly be good at it because I don't take constructive critics in a good manner.
A game genie or action replay
I thought about adding them in the list. I could probably swap out the modem for Action Replay 2.

How come u love 32X it only came with 20 games and only 3 to 6 of em were good enough to play
The rest of the peripherals i didn't even hear back in my age of 16 bit era, there were all absent in this dump, except the arcade stick i saw few in here
I can't explain it I just am. I guess it like people who love a rubbish movie.
WHAT??? How come the Activator is not topping your list? 🤣
One day it will be, what the list will be about I don't know yet.
Great list. As much as i love the modem though it is essentially useless. I think maybe a better item for the list would have been the sega cd memory cartridge, which is a must if you play any RPG's for the Sega CD as the internal memory just wasn't enough to save those massive files. Also i totally need to get a dust cover.
That's a good call, I don't have one of those yet.
