Honestly pretty telling I think. If they are lazy enough to not cover or move the TV while painting, why would they care about the quality of their own console?
America voted for Trump because he pretended to be the people's man... Even more people believe there is a old man in the sky watching over them... Wake up! My personal theory is that humanity started the day a monkey told a story to another monkey...
Great work as usual. Thank you. I noticed in the video and no one I've seen has mentioned it. There seems to be 4 original controller ports on the front. However they always use a usb connected controller (Xbox). Why don't they ever show original controllers working on this amazing console?
“It can run off the TV’s power through the TV’s USB slot.” Stop right there. Ain’t no way that thing, if it does actually exist, can run Saturn and Dreamcast games off the USB slot power. If Amazon’s Fire stick has to warn you that the USB slot power isn’t enough, how do you think that’s going to go with running Saturn and Dreamcast games?
Saw this thing on Sega Lord X’s wrap up video. If even an Uber positive guy like him thinks something looks horrid then it’s a trash fire above comprehension. Especially comparing this to something like the Neptune which I hope to god is good
You can tell it's fake because they don't want to hold the camera still. It's a shame, because it's not too hard to wire a Raspberry Pi into some cartridge slots. It would be an amusing little project.
To Ian’s point about how the family might not be that innocent, I’d push back by saying we don’t know what was told to them prior to making the video. If my cousin shows up at Christmas saying he’s been toying with making whatever kind of system, and would I like to see what he has completed so far… I’d engage with it.
SEGA backwards is AGES. Call it AGES Console because it plays games from many console generations. DONE. He can have that idea for free. I'll charge for trhe next one.
Why is the camera constantly swinging around? I would have more respect for scammers if they at least put in some effort, but this is the most inept rubbish I've ever seen - spend a couple of hours making a convincing "demo" rather than this unwatchable garbage! Also I took a closer look at the board from the last video and it's complete nonsense - even if it's a multilayer board that for some reason has a massive ground plane on both sides, there were nowhere near enough passives on the board, and what few decoupling caps were visible seemed to be on traces that just went round in a loop.
Literally just put the camera on a tripod for 2 minutes. It oozes arrogance and contempt for the morons that will inevitably keep sending him money for this.
The whole board setup and design is very suspect, as several hardware engineers have pointed out. The fact that it needs an "auxiliary" 5V USB in addition to the barrel jack means these Supersega people do not know anything about setting DC power rails properly. Yet they can make a custom FPGA board all by themselves.
I’m glad you guys are skeptical of Time Extension too. I’ve read several articles not related to Supersega in the past that are factually erroneous. I’ve been gaming since the early 80’s and know my stuff. I noticed that their coverage of Supersega is very uncritical. They don’t seem reputable either. Also, did Alejandro source GD-ROM drives? To my knowledge, they haven’t been produced in 20 years. A generic laptop drive can’t read em. Unbelievable.
I think in Pat's case it's also because he previously covered one of the main writers Damien McFerran, who wrote a puff piece with the NintendoLife article on the Amico console, in addition to defending his own article in the user comments that were more critical.
There is no one and I mean no one that can convince me that someone was able to re-create an optical drive that can read GD-Roms. If someone were to do any kind of work on it they would have done it by now. The GD-ROM drive recreation would take a lot of time for so many numerous reasons. Also at least with Tommy he didn't get threatened with any kind of legal battles from any big major companies when he was doing the Amico for stealing the name unlike what is happening with SuperSega. A longtime ago anyone who is and was developing new game for the Dreamcast were using CDs.
I can't imagine that Sega would like their branding being used to sell something without there involvement. EDIT:Shock of all shocks! Sega steps in to shut it down! LOL
another huge red flag is the disc drive saying it can read Dreamcast games, which is like, next to impossible to do properly with a modern drive due to the GD rom format the Dreamcast uses lmao
They say that the CD drive that they “will include” the ability to play Sega, Saturn and Sega Dreamcast games. That’s a load of horseshit. Dreamcast doesn’t play CDROMs it plays GDroms. there is no CD reader on the market today that can read a Dreamcast game.
The only things we DO know for sure... 1. That PCB they showed could never work like they are claiming. 2. The SuperSEGA channel is definitely not sponsored by Dollar Shave Club. lol
it's like a shiny car with a brand new paint job but no you can't look under the hood, wanna buy it or not? no you can't test drive it. i'll drive it for you and no i'm not pushing with my feet through a hole in the floorboard.
At 6:24 you can also see a white box behind the "console" which is probably where the keyboard is going to. At around 13:00 mark you can see 3 cables coming from the "console" but the HDMI is going into the TV and there's a USB going into the TV then the third one is going off elsewhere. There's also like a half second delay between him pushing a button on the controller to the "interface" doing something. All in this just seems like a linux frontend from one of those bootable 50,000 game compilation hard drives that are chocked full of games and emulators that you can boot into.
The whole thing just screams that they are usuing Sega as an excuse of why they won't be able to refund people because apparently they took all that money and got all the final boards produced already despite not having a finished prototype. The "new" prototype they have put together also screams of something of an afterthought because how can you have a CD drive connected when there is no where on the board to connect it for power or data transfer? The thing as it stands seems to still need two separate power sources which makes no sense because that would suggest that something isn't being powered by the main board which would mean it's not even connected to anything else and is running independently. The videos are now becoming a joke as he seems to think showing old footage of himself makes him more trustworthy or something.
It would have been a great idea. I loved playing with the sega genesis, and cd. Nostalgia is there for sure. I now have a system that plays just like a sega genesis system. I also bought a cart that has 1200 Sega master system, genesis, and 32x games. Combined. It was 75 for the cart and 40 for the system. The game works great. Maybe not all the games work but most have. The old school controllers work as well. I guess point being. You can find these consoles and games if you really want that experience again. I feel satisfied with what I’ve found. But it’s unfortunate that these things like the super Sega and The Tommy incident had to happen.
Optical drives which read the GD Rom disc type are proprietary and no longer produced. Maybe it can read segacd and saturn. No way it will read real dreamcast games.
Give a CD drive 5 (and 12,not sure?) Volts, and you can open the tray. You don't need any other connections. They couldve easily put a USB to SATA adapter inside the shell. The power cable could've gone straight into that. That's how they did it.
I said to myself, “He’s over here analyzing this video like it’s the fucking Zapruder film.” Pat, two seconds later: “I’m watching this thing like it’s the fucking Zapruder film!”
I am not byeing this. There are way way too many of these scam consoles out there. I do remember those NES clones in the early 2000s. I had 1. You put a cartridge inside of it, and it had I don't know how many games on it. But they were horrible. Some of them were repeats. I bought my girlfriend at the time a NES classic edition, thinking it was the real thing. Nope. Had too many games to count, and they were horrible. Homebrewed hacked NES games. This was a few years back. The same store had a SNES classic that promised over 800 to 1000 games on it. It was just a bunch of hacked NES games. I found out later that they tightened up their policies after they found out those consoles were ripoffs. I do have an original NES classic, a Sega Minny, and I finally got a SNES classic. However the latter is missing a 2nd controler, and a legit USB plug, so I'm having to plug it into the TV.
Speaking of Tushy... I don't understand how Bidays work. Okay you spray your butt with water instead of using paper to wipe... but how do you know when your butt is clean? And what if fecal residue falls on the spray tube?
I pre ordered 3 of them,seen it working,played sonic adventure and Ferrari 355,burning rangers and choplifter,seen the fpga chip,4 layer pcb with copper,shell is for workbench only,hdmi isnt powered on board Ordered 2x boxes of that toilet roll you guys are shilling
so they are saying a geneic laptop drive can read GD-ROM ? there is no technical way it can. thee are drives that can with mods but that isn't one of them. FAF (Fake as ...)
Two thoughts; (1) these scammers go to such lengths to scam, it always surprises me. (2) Wasn't the Master System and Genesis wildly popular in Brazil and South America? Is this scam targeting that market specifically?
What do you think about the SUPERSEGA project? Can you believe it's looking worse?

The box and console are sitting on a patio table. So professional.
Its a pass through for emulation and thats it
I gave a bit of a reply in my post below here ... or above ... wherever YT decides it should go ...
Someone who paints the wall without moving the TV can't be trusted to build a console.
Landlord special indeed
Honestly pretty telling I think. If they are lazy enough to not cover or move the TV while painting, why would they care about the quality of their own console?
sure enough....I think that's a solid rule to go by
Tommy peeking out over Ian’s shoulder throughout this video is the icing on this scam cake. 😂
I swear people want to be scammed like it's their fetish

If only he started a new project called Super Nintendo, a certain company's legal team will kick in his front door.
to quote a famous kickshaming expert: a family that scams together, stays together.

haha yeah
I don't understand how people continue to fall for this stuff, hawk tua coin...
Often times it's the exploitation of the ignorant
You can tell it's fake because they don't want to hold the camera still. It's a shame, because it's not too hard to wire a Raspberry Pi into some cartridge slots. It would be an amusing little project.
Yep. Is it that hard to pull back a bit to have the console and TV in the shot at the same time and then put a cartridge in?
To Ian’s point about how the family might not be that innocent, I’d push back by saying we don’t know what was told to them prior to making the video. If my cousin shows up at Christmas saying he’s been toying with making whatever kind of system, and would I like to see what he has completed so far… I’d engage with it.
Right. Plus I wouldn't immediately suspect a family member of perpetuating a massive scam. Most people don't think like that
@@subtledemisefox i would. i know my relatives.
Supersega to Tommy: *Hold my beer* 🍺

No, it's certainly not the new Amico.....but it is enough to give us that sweet, sweet scam fix we all so crave🤤

Ain’t no way Dreamcast is running off of a 5V/1A USB port

Forget the child in the video. There’s clearly a dog laying on the couch not impressed with the console.
If you get a ride in his Lambo and invite you to his video game trap house, maybe that will convince you that this console is legit.
Consumers become consumers when they consume.
Remember when a couple of youtubers were trying to scam people with Cheetahmen 2 kickstarter in 2012 ?!
They really stuck a separate DVD drive onto the 3D printed case and claimed it runs Dreamcast. Good Lord
Dude it's unreal 😂

So good to see Ian n Pat still making videos!!
Dang I recognize that drive bezel. Its for a USB Powered external DVD drive made by Asus.
People like Slopes game room giving them money 😂 shame

The Supersega gives me retroVGS vibes.... is Mike Kennedy involved in this?

Good for you friendo! There's so many good ways to play classic games now it's awesome.
