Sega Mega Drive Mini

£60 / stuff.tv/MegaDriveMini

There’ll be playground rows and online feuds

over whether Nintendo’s or Sega’s games

are better, but the Mega Drive Mini wins

the miniature retro console war in terms of

the faithful recreation of both hardware and

software – especially as there are 42 games

included. It’s taken a long time to get here,

but as the saying goes, to be this good takes

ages – and the Sega is the must-buy console

of the moment.
