@ellis_wooo FIFA has just become all a bit much. So many modes and options fighting for space, and the bit they want you to play the most is Ultimate Team, which I have no interest in! Sadly Konami tried to turn Pro Evo into a similar e-sport money spinner and it’s just not worked 🤷‍♂️

@GregMathews1 What they done to Pro Evolution is a tragedy mate. I've not got my old consoles but I do still have '21 I think on Xbox downloaded. It's not the classics but its still miles better than FIFA.

Finally have the Retroid Pocket 6 set up, crammed with games for PS2, GameCube and, most importantly, Dreamcast 🤩 I feel a handheld Crazy Taxi addiction is inevitable 🤷‍♂️ #SEGA #Playstation #Nintendo #Dreamcast

@CABBAC @Retroid0fficial Not tested Saturn yet but it should play without any bother! 👍 Picked up a Retroid Pocket Classic 6 last year and turned it into a dedicated portable Sega. Much lower power than the new device and runs Saturn really well! 🪐
Greg Mathews@GregMathews1

So I got myself a Retroid Pocket Classic 6-Button… …and I now have my own portable #Sega! Master System, Game Gear, Mega Drive, Mega CD, 32X… …and yes, it plays Saturn beautifully 👇 I’m in love 💙 #SegaSaturday #SaturnDay #RETROGAMING

@RetroJeff83 @MoonPieDreams Yeah it’s more like 20, but you’re right the feel is so spot on you can forgive its flaws! CCE hits a pretty stable 30 with a much better draw distance, but that handling just ain’t Daytona! There’s a perfect Saturn Daytona in the middle there somewhere that we never got😫

I don’t really engage in console warring on here, but sometimes a take is so sh💩tty you just have to call it out 😂. Sega made fantastic consoles and made/makes incredible games. Nintendo made/makes fantastic consoles and incredible games. Any questions? No? Great! 👍

For younger readers: At the time, SEGA was destroyed by Nintendo in Japan. In the US and Europe, SEGA didn't have the same great games as Nintendo, so everything was about attitude and marketing. I still remember my school yard. Literally not a single soul played SEGA because of good games. It was always "Sonic is cooler than Mario", "Sonic is faster than Mario", "Mario is for babies" etc. That's why I didn't exactly cry when SEGA exited the hardware business 25 years ago. They deserved it. They day they couldn't live on edgy attitude anymore, that day they were no longer relevant.

@MoonPieDreams Proves even more how little he knows - Saturn Daytona doesn’t run anywhere near 30fps 😂

When mum comes to visit she always brings a relic from my past she thinks the kids will enjoy. This time it’s Star Trek The Next Generation Monopoly 😃 Family has no idea what anything means but we’re having fun (I’m Picard & shout “Make it so!” every time I move 😂) #StarTrek

It's kind of hilarious how triggered this guy was over this ad 🤣 Fun fact: the last Nintendo console released when Sega were making hardware was defeated by the Saturn in Japan. Side note: never be glad when competitors leave the market, the world will be poorer for it.

@swooper_d I love Lemmings! I recently picked up the Game Gear port, which is fantastic, and 3D Lemmings on the Saturn, which is isn’t amazing but an interesting take on the formula!

#SegaGamesEveryDay2026 96. Lemmings The classic DMA puzzle game, where you rescue hordes of suicidal rodents from death through various maze like stages. An icon celebrating 40 years since its original release, the Mega Drive version is one I'm particularly fond of.

@AVGN82 If you weren’t a fan of the first I don’t think the second will be for you either. As an audio visual experience it’s really impressive, and it’s a barrage of fan service for Nintendo kids, but it really lacks the focus and depth to be truly engaging, at least for me.

@asmackie I thought it was ok! Not bad, but not great, and not quite as solid as the first. I feel like they dialled it up to 11 with the visuals and set pieces too early, and by the end it was all just blending together. Kids loved it though!

@JustBeingDanny My mum took me and my best friend there for my birthday in the mid-90s. We grew up in a village in Wiltshire so it was mind-blowing to our country boy brains 🤯

@Gaming_For_Ages I think we all know the answer, and if your wife’s honest, she knows it as well 😂
