Just a few comments after watching your video. You can change the controller type in the settings menu, no need to restart. You can even use the 3-button scheme on the 6-button controller. The main reason you were having so much difficulty with the rollerbots is you really weren't ready for them. You needed to find some better tools and weapons before trying to attack them. Also the magnet does not need to be laid on the robot. Just lay it somewhere you expect the robot to be. Watch where it moves, and place the magnet it is path when it is off-screen.
Thanks David. I hope I didn’t sound too harsh! I really appreciate the effort you and everyone put forth in the game. I’ll keep trying and hopefully learn to play it better!
@The8BitGuy Just one problem... we need a Mega Drive release. Mega Drives and Genesis systems are region locked, and the MD cartridges are a different shape - MD cartridges will not fit in the Genesis' cartridge slot, and vice versa. It should be as easy as changing the shell of the cart, and a couple bytes changed in the ROM code.
@@kami-kun_va Genesis carts absolutely WILL fit into a MegaDrive and vice versa. It's the Japanese carts that need special adapters. Moreover the game ships in a MegaDrive-style shell anyway. I strongly doubt that the Petscii developer programmed in region locks. No words on how well the game is compatible with PAL, but you can always buy the ROM for $10 and find out!
I like the box style. I remember having a copy of Mike Ditka football with a box like that. I'd like to get my hands on a copy, looks different but fun after putting some time in.
Chinese cartridge shell looks cheap. First - absence of the screws (snaps are really bad). Second - sticker area is bigger (to the bottom). Originals are not like that - just compare them.

@@jh5124 I ordered the 7800 version off of AtariAge, hopefully it gets here soon!
@@GregsGameRoom Bro, you don't look to be very good at this whole video game thing. Maybe Nintendo games are more your thing? 😂

Very exited as I have my signed copy. Thanks David Murray. Cool unboxing.👍I have a Petscii Robot hand made by randi rain perfect in my collection.

Yeah I definitely like the box. It’s nicely built. I just wished it was the same size as the other Genesis boxes!
Oh you mean Mega Drive.
It’s funny the manual reads “Sega Genesis” on it but the photos are of the Mega Drive. Weird.
Also the cartridge shell is a PAL style one and not an NTSC style shell... you can see the difference when you compare it to your baseball game.
You don't plug in and out 6 button controllers in the case of ANY game, the console needs to initialize it during boot-up.
could you tell me the buttons please? i only seem to be able to shoot downwards
Does the game manual fit inside an OEM Genesis box?
