Thread: Sega Mega Drive Gopher Released - With an SD Slot for expansion

Started 2 months, 3 weeks ago by nocultureicons
Aww I bought the previous model with three buttons and no SD card expansion. Ah well, the DS does a reasonable job... good enough for me anyway!

Can someone (whos owned it) please clarify whether it accepts normal SD cards or a proprietary format? I live in brazil, and TecToy (Segas representative in brazil) has launched this over here, and also they are selling preloaded game cards called MD cards. Problem is, it costs 140 R$ to buy the console, and 25+ R$ for the MD cards. not to mention the games on the cards arent even mega drive ...

Oh hey! i just remembered, a while ago Dealextreme launched a controller that hooked up to the TV that accepted normal SD cards for ROMs! the roms had to be loaded on to the built-in 64? megabytes but it emulated them fine. This could just be one of those with a screen and a rechargeable battery! I hope so. BTW: The thing was called the E-Time.

Some brazilians figured out how to run roms, just get a low memory SD card, (500~ mb) put a folder on it called GAME, put roms in, put SD in, and play!!

For now, from my testings... I'll say: 95% rom compatibility. Panorama cotton for example is completely glitched... Also some rom hack freeze or hang (I tried sonic 2 delta, some levels works, others not). But 95% compatibility is already awesome for a device supposed to only have 20 games at start.

Is there any limit to how many games you can put on the SD card? I mean, does the menu on it expand according to how many games are on it? Just a thought, mind you.

indaman replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
I only tried placing a few games... But so far, game menu expanded itself up to 4 pages.

Yay! Also, how's the resolution? On the older version (no SD slot), people complained that the screen was dark and had a poor resolution.

i have read reviews of the dingoo, and its a nice little machine, and for a really good price, but, even with all of its features, its a bit expensive for me.

the screen is not protected good, so people should take care of it, otherwise scratches will be in it very soon. but i think you can buy transparent-protection-leaf and put it over the screen, but i dont did this. i bought me a good case and hope nothing will happen. bleepbloop, because of snes emulation and other stuff, maybe the dingoo a-320 could be interesting for you. here is a link:...

Even emulators refuse the files created with this convertor (it actually only add a header to tell very old megadrive flashcards to switch into sms mode). On the gopher like on emulator, I only get a...

Just for fun, here's a size comparative (in real sizes) with the nomad (caps from the Gopher/millenium, thanks to AW72):
