Mad respect for you making a box...damn this is such a good repro! I swear if I ever win the lotto and wanna start my own company, I'd hire you for sure!
I admire the passion for the sega mega drive collection. The chair is a awesome find and beautiful work on the box taking the time to complete and restore the look that best represents the company. From a Sega fan myself from the U.S. that grew up playing the Genesis I love rare obscure items like this. And the passion preserving and restoring items of this era is amazing. Keep up the good work 👌
I'd completely forgotten about this peripheral until I saw the thumbnail for this video. I wanted one of these so badly back in the day! The custom box looks incredible. Well done, Mike. 👏
Now this is what I call a very rare item. The fact you made the box and your son is happy about it is enough for you to get a gold medal and many pats in the back 👍
Wow Mike, another incredible vid and blown away with your artistic skill as well as engineering skill on the box, flipping incredible. Those chairs never come up you’ve done well there. Love the creating content with box sets and that kind of stuff - keep it coming ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The work you take to show us peripherals that are often unknown is amazing. It shows the love you have for what you do. I think it's difficult to control because of the weight, because it's more designed for children than for adults, although now we want to see you use it and how it works in real time XD. Cheers from Spain
There is just more of a delay in shifting your body than there is pressing a button with your finger. I think if you practice a lot with it you would could master it.
Being that we're IN Missouri, I adore the fact that this has a bit of history with our state; how cool! (BTW we also have one of the country's remaining audio cassette manufacturers too). It will be neat to see your restoration of the chair as well. I really adore that YOU made a box for this; that's so epic and looks amazing! I will 100% have YOU design the Collector's Edition box art and packaging for the Do You Nerd game, available on SNES, Switch and Genesis of course. lol So adorbs that you then do an unboxing--love it! Seriously looks fantastic and legit; the care of the cardboard spacers and the plastic, excellent touches Mike.
Holy crap, you find stuff I never realize existed! I don't remember any ads for this in North America. But then, I didn't realize Sega made a karaoke ad on for Mega CD... Over £1000, daaaamn?!
Wow mike that's god damn impressive and the best part is your the only person on the planet with anything like this, much respect for your dedication dude is inspiring mate!
Awesome video! I remember having a shot of a Sega Action Chair when I was about ten years old, and I loved it. There used to be a Comet in Auldhouse Retail Park (south side of Glasgow), and they had one hooked up to a Mega Drive - with Sonic the Hedgehog (of all games!) as the game that was in the console. This would have been in 1992. I had great fun using the chair, and I really wanted one… but my dad wouldn’t buy it for me (and in fairness, we wouldn’t have had anywhere to put it - the Mega Drive was in my bedroom, and there definitely wasn’t enough space for it!). I don’t remember seeing a box for it… they just had the chair on display and for potential customers to try out (with Sonic), but I don’t think the box was actually on display anywhere.
This a very great job, and has a Sega Custom cover maker (and Console Sleeve ) you had done something amazing. But more importantly I used to have this Chair as a kid. When I saw it on a charity shop I buy it (for 5£) because I was secretly hoping to use it on my Amstrad or Master System : and of course it's work ! I enjoy it the most on a Star Wars X Wing game, Ghostbuster 2 was cool too and every racing game feel real. And I sold it because I didn't own a Amstrad or Méga Drive year later..for 5£😂
Amazing work! You are rightfully proud of yourself for this one. It even looks better than an original Sega product with the vinyl finish. Would love to try the chair on a shooting game and easy mode one day.
I remember seeing this advertised in magazines as a kid. Even back then i thought it was very gimmicky and a waste of money. Its cool to see it so many years later.
I’ve been watching you for a long time and I really enjoy your channel but I’ve got to hand it to you, very creative and excellent work on beautiful designed box for the chair. Very impressive. Attention to detail to make it as authentic as it possibly could be was perfect. Nice touch with the plastic bags.
I don’t have the words! This is brilliant. The coolest custom work I’ve seen in retro gaming. You’ve outdone yourself! You amount of work you put in is incredible. I love this so much 🤩👍🔥
In the eighties, we have the glove of power. Then in the nineties, we have the gran turismo steering wheels and dance revolution step pads. Then in early 2000s, we have the virtual helmet. Never heard of Sega Genesis Megadrive control chair.
This is unbelievable. Most of the people I know are yet to find their passion. It's inspiring to feel your love and dedication for the Mega Drive. Kudos man.
Amazing work Mike! I love how you always find a way to create authentic-looking/ nostalgic packaging of the Sega vintage cartridges. This “NIB” chair is next level!!
@@RetroGamerBoy I have the NES version of the chair and live 15 mins from the town they were made in. I know a old man that worked with the two guys that started the company. He told me about Sega buying a bunch of them for the European market. At the time I didn't even know about a Sega version of the chair but the guy told me somewhere around here (Neosho Mo.) There is a warehouse full of these chairs.
@@RetroGamerBoy It was a christmas present from my parents when I was young. The only product we bought brand new without the box. The store didn't keep it because it was too big.
Nice video. I have one of these in storage somewhere that I bought for about 20 quid years ago. At the time I didn't even know it was an official product because it feels so cheap. Very much a novelty that amuses friends who come around, it's also a little too small for a fully grown human. Nevertheless, you can have some fun and score epic Sega hipster points by playing Master System Space Harrier 3D with the 3D glasses and the chair. 90s peripheral silliness at its best.
Omg dude you knocked that out of the park 😍 do remember seeing this chair used on a gaming show like game master. Great video and amazing work to design and build the box 👊🏻
Man saw your picture of this on Facebook first. Had no idea you made it. Looks totally legit! Love it 😍 Had know idea this even existed. Would you to see you playing some games with it. Thanks Mike 😎👍🏼
You just became my favorite psycho with this homemade better than the original box for this piece of equipment. Thank you so much for sharing this. I myself try to make one for my arcade power stick that I just got. What a good inspiration for me! Take care and carry on you maniac! Hope to hear from you soon!
Aw, man. I actually remember that. I bought one unboxed cheap in 1993 for about 50 quid but the bugger wouldn't work, so we took it back for a refund. I wish I'd kept it now.
@Retro Gamer Boy I wish I had have tried to repair it at the time. It was actually a pretty cool piece of kit. But just trying to play Super Monaco GP was like the Krypton Factor!
Soooooooo.. how much!? xD That's amazing work. Really looking forward to the resoration video, don't be afraid to sand down the whole thing if needed. I know I would. Always love people putting their skills to good use, not only this look official, it must also give you an enormous sense of self-accomplishment.
I swear, you're gonna put up a video in a few weeks with something like "rare boxed sega megadrive wireless ashtray." I have no idea where you're getting all these peripherals, but it's fantastic.
He he, nice. I remember the advertising from "Centro Mail" in the magazines of the time, like Hobby Consolas or Super Juegos, here in Spain. It was like 120€ I think, (19900 pts), with the inflaction that would be quite the money today :-D
Now that's dedication at the highest to retro collecting even beating everyone replicating amiga boxes. But I have one question where you going to store it lol
Mad respect for you making a box...damn this is such a good repro! I swear if I ever win the lotto and wanna start my own company, I'd hire you for sure!

I'd completely forgotten about this peripheral until I saw the thumbnail for this video. I wanted one of these so badly back in the day! The custom box looks incredible. Well done, Mike. 👏
Same
Thanks, its great to finally have it.
Bro, this is crazy! Mad respect. That making of that box really blew my mind! Awesome job!
Thanks. I love looking at it in the games room. Playing in it is another thing.
What an awesome addition to your collection! Epic video too, keep it up!
Yup it's an amazing addition.
Wow, I can’t believe you made it! It’s perfectly done! You thought in every single detail. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It was a labour of love / a crazy man.
No one can ever accuse you of not being devoted to the cause. Looks fantastic!
I'm not sure its a healthy devotion 😅
That is excellent ! Well done Mike !🎉
Thanks, it was so cool to make.
Wow, I only ever seen small, faded pictures on the net of this thing.
Great pickup!
It was pure luck. But it's awesome to have in the collection.
Now this is what I call a very rare item. The fact you made the box and your son is happy about it is enough for you to get a gold medal and many pats in the back 👍
Thanks, it was so cool to actually add this to the collection.
@@RetroGamerBoy :)
This is incredibly impressive, amazing job
Why thank you very much.

It was amazing. I love looking at it next to the other box Mega Drive stuff.

Thanks Tom. My wife says that I have a problem.
@@RetroGamerBoy Tell her she sounds feverish and the only cure is more Mike. Giggety.
Your dedication is inspiring. Awesome job.
I just love the Sega Mega Drive, I have so much nostalgia for it.
@@RetroGamerBoy yeah, me too. It's one of those things where it's so ingrained in me from my childhood that it can never not matter to me.
Holy crap, you find stuff I never realize existed! I don't remember any ads for this in North America. But then, I didn't realize Sega made a karaoke ad on for Mega CD... Over £1000, daaaamn?!
I guess every console has it's big hitter items.
Never heard of this thing but congratulations on making that box art for it. You're very skilled at restoring Mega Drive memorabillia.
Thank you 👍
Wow mike that's god damn impressive and the best part is your the only person on the planet with anything like this, much respect for your dedication dude is inspiring mate!
Thanks, it looks so great in the room.
This looks awesome!! Well done Mike! This is definitely the best retro packaging you have completed so far! What a fantastic achievement 🎉🥳👍🏾
Thanks it was a fun project to take on.
Wow. That's truly amazing. Pure passion
Thank you.
Enthusiasm is so contagious 😃, keep it up always look forward to seeing the next video
Thanks, I love projects like these. I know it's not the real box but it feels like it is.

Yup it is so hard to find the box anywhere. I remember going to Woolworths every day after school to look at it.
@9:31 - 👏👀‼➕ #CHEERS on the attention to detail, Mike❗
Thank you for watching👍
That box is utterly gorgeous Mike. Outstanding job. Great vid as usual!
Why thank you very much.

Not an accessory I seen back in the day anywhere
It is such a big and bulky thing at very few places had it.
Amazing work! You are rightfully proud of yourself for this one. It even looks better than an original Sega product with the vinyl finish. Would love to try the chair on a shooting game and easy mode one day.
I'm going to be playing some of the Mega CD shooters this weekend.
Above and beyond on the custom box 👏
It needed to be a good job. It could have gone wrong at so many points.
I remember seeing this advertised in magazines as a kid. Even back then i thought it was very gimmicky and a waste of money. Its cool to see it so many years later.
I was the opposite, I really wanted it but the price was insane.
Awesome redesigning to make it real 90s nostalgia for diehard Sega fans! 😎
Exactly 😁👍

Another AMAZING FREAKING AWESOME JOB again. I just love watching your content you always surprise me please keep up the fantastic videos
Thanks, it's great to get to work on projects like this.
I don’t have the words! This is brilliant. The coolest custom work I’ve seen in retro gaming. You’ve outdone yourself!

Thanks dude, I'm so happy to have this in the collection.
In the eighties, we have the glove of power. Then in the nineties, we have the gran turismo steering wheels and dance revolution step pads. Then in early 2000s, we have the virtual helmet. Never heard of Sega Genesis Megadrive control chair.
The Mega Drive had some amazing tech. Like the modem for online gameplay, or the VR headset that did not make it to market.
This is unbelievable. Most of the people I know are yet to find their passion. It's inspiring to feel your love and dedication for the Mega Drive. Kudos man.
Thanks, I appreciate you saying that.
Amazing work Mike! I love how you always find a way to create authentic-looking/ nostalgic packaging of the Sega vintage cartridges. This “NIB” chair is next level!!
Thanks, it's so cool to have the chair after 30 years.
This is incredible!!!! You did an amazing job!!!!
Thank you. I'm really happy with how it turned out.
That's is so freaking cool!
You really outdone yourself this time 😊
Ya I don't think I'll be able to surpass this one.
@@RetroGamerBoy oh I'm sure you have a few tricks up your sleeve 😄
Thats really amazing, great work and congrats on getting the chair
I was so happy. I had it out today and played Shining Force 4 with it. Very surreal.
@@RetroGamerBoy I have the NES version of the chair and live 15 mins from the town they were made in. I know a old man that worked with the two guys that started the company.

never heard of this chair and i thought i knew all about sega!, thanks for this informative video mike
I'm hoping to add some more obscure stuff to the collection.
wow Mike - the amount of effort you put in is unparalleled. well done it looks amazing, such a shame it doesn't play that well!
😅 ya, it's the same with other peripherals. Cool ideas but not necessarily great.
I still have my Sega Action Chair at home. Remember some old memories 😊😊
That's awesome. Have you used it recently.
@@RetroGamerBoy Not recently, but it's still under my desk. Last time I used my chair, it was with Monaco GP.

Thanks dude. If I was going to do this I wanted to do it right 👍
Amazing Work Mike! Amazing work!
Thanks, it took a while but it's finally finished.
That’s absolutely fantastic.
It's so cool to have this chair now.
Wow dude, love the effort you put into the box!! 👏
Thank you, my wife didn't😅
Nice! I love this attention to detail.
Thank you, I'm really happy with the results.
I had a TV console stand . Was for a TV with moulded space for mastersystem 1 and 2 or mega drive 1 and 2 .
What! No way.

It simple and it works.
Fantastic result 😀👍
Thank you. It such a cool peripheral.
Great work. Everything looks fantastic.
Thanks👍
Love the dedication. It looks awesome 👌

Can I just say that is absolutely beautiful in every way congratulations on a very good job well done 👍

A true enthusiast! Well done.
I'm dedicated to the Sega 16bit cause 😅
Thats the first time ever ive heard about this chair 😂🤯 very interesting video 🤌🏾
It's a rare item to get hold of. Not many people know about it.
Ho!. Amazing job. Congratulations! 😁👌
🤘😝🤘 Thank you
What a crazy addition to the collection, it looks great, definitely a talking piece. Nice one 😉
I'm going to try it out on the Master System with the 3D glasses.
I bet it will feel so uncomfortable and awkward but, you will look so cool 😎
Damn right 🤘😝🤘
Simply incredible
Thanks 👍
whoa looks legit!! congrats on the find
Thanks, I'm really pleased with it.
I was kinda hoping to see you play with it. 😢
That's coming next week. Sonic 2 on the live stream.
Dude, that's just amazing!

That would break me. I'm off to practice now.
Amazing work you did there, kudos! 👌😎

Aw, man. I actually remember that. I bought one unboxed cheap in 1993 for about 50 quid but the bugger wouldn't work, so we took it back for a refund. I wish I'd kept it now.
Nooooooooo, They are so easy to fix as well.
@Retro Gamer Boy I wish I had have tried to repair it at the time. It was actually a pretty cool piece of kit. But just trying to play Super Monaco GP was like the Krypton Factor!
Soooooooo.. how much!? xD That's amazing work. Really looking forward to the resoration video, don't be afraid to sand down the whole thing if needed. I know I would. Always love people putting their skills to good use, not only this look official, it must also give you an enormous sense of self-accomplishment.
It's going to get sand blasted and the power coated. That will ensure it lasts forever.
@@RetroGamerBoy Awesome. You got to show us the end result. Great video as usual mate.

Why thank you👍
Amazing! You are the best!!

Holy hell I remember this from the gaming mags at the time.
I was so desperate to get one back in the day. But they were so expensive.
I swear, you're gonna put up a video in a few weeks with something like "rare boxed sega megadrive wireless ashtray." I have no idea where you're getting all these peripherals, but it's fantastic.
As I learn more about the collection I come across these unique items.
He he, nice. I remember the advertising from "Centro Mail" in the magazines of the time, like Hobby Consolas or Super Juegos, here in Spain. It was like 120€ I think, (19900 pts), with the inflaction that would be quite the money today :-D
Yup they were super pricey.
Very cool, mate!!
Thanks, I never thought I would own one.
Incredible work! Loved seeing this!
