wasn't this done before and called the Game Gear?

Linzoid5759d ago

The Game Gear could play MasterSystem games not MegaDrive/Genesis games.

Sexius Maximus5759d ago

You're thinking of the Sega Nomad.

Yuji Naka5759d ago

Nomad's battery life didn't exactly last as well as desired. :(

spunnups5759d ago

after playing a bunch of next gen games like MGS4 and Uncharted it's hard to go back. What kind of games are on this system anyway? I had the game gear and the genesis but never this.

Irving5758d ago

Same system, different names in different regions.

TheColbertinator5759d ago

Its has been a looooooong time since I last saw the Mega Drive

badz1495759d ago

just why?? what's the point? I can't even see the relevance

GodsHand5759d ago

Nostalgic, if these systems and games were before your time, you won't understand.

Give it several years, and you will be missing the good old days of playing your current console, and games in the future.

SilPho5759d ago

Sounds like the gateway drug for the PSP and DS.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
