Finally Found the Sega CD Model 1 in 2022 ... 😄 ! 

This has always been the best looking console to me, the Mk1 Megadrive and Mega-CD. Perfect 👌

Wow, thanks for this! I bought a Sega CDX and subsequently a 32x in the 90's military. It was my first foray into Sega and I loved it. Games like Ecco the Dolphin with music you could play in your car and Lunar with animation cutscenes just blew my mind. I still play a decent amount of current gen games, but I miss the days of new systems opening new levels of wonder and joy.

I have the model 1 Sega CD and the 32X also, love it great retro gaming takes me back to my youth

Silpheed is one of the all time best Sega cd games!! You need it in your collection!

You got the RGB cable might as well get a CRT to really enjoy the 16 bit graphics.

best thing about the mega cd is no copy protection so you can play games like snatcher that is so expensive these days

My dad bought it when it first came out, and we still have it, and it works fine! My favorite game was Time Gal it sure is fun to play it once and awhile. :)

Best looking version to have!

I remember when it came out... 🥺

Lucky you! I really want one of these as I love the look

I found the usa version of the Sega CD model 1 at a New Jersey thrift store 5 years ago as a bonus Spider-Man Vs the King Pin was in the system

That is so cool wicked congrats my friend

Only saw one in the wild, if I remember correctly a greeting card type of show. My friend had the model 2 with the wide Genesis.

Damn, i feel old 😂😂😂 Hello from Romania

Awesome pickup man! I was lucky enough to find a cdx a few years ago. Sadly though its starting to have issues reading discs. Love all things Sega my dude. Peace out from Las Vegas.

Model 1 is so classy. It looks like a dignified piece of hi-fi equipment for adult, discerning gamers.

The power jack plugs on these devices are centre negative! be careful with replacements.

Wouw, jij heb hem!!

Thats a great looking lineup you have, that Megadrive 1 is freaking pristine. A friend had this but I never did, now that I got my Polymega I can play Sega CD which has been fun. Notes otes made on the ones you showed, a couple I wouldn't have thought of, so thank you. :)

My cousins got this day 1, still remember playing Night Trap (at age 10) and then wondering why congress made a big stink about it. Never played the MK2 port but heard it was the best one. Great vid.

You took me back to my Sega Genesis gaming days!! Awesome!!

Model 1 is best looking console of all time... designer should get award.

That is excellent. I have been looking for one for years and still not found one yet. Thanks for the video

Wolfchild's music is good because it's an Amiga game. The Amiga had incredible audio capabilities (and talented people who wrote games soundtracks).

Awesome! So happy for you!

Some cool things i liked about the sega classic games is the sampled voices for streets of rage. and one cool fact is sonic cd, the music for the past stages you wont be able to play from the cd (you can in the da garden menu) because the past music is playing from the megadrives audio chip, to represent the past. pretty cool

people mock the MD add-ons but original MD/Genesis and original Sega/Mega CD together is the coolest looking console of all time.

Awesome! Loved the model 1 megacd 👍 I knew someone who had Soulstar on it, absolutely loved it

I had that Sega CD version, I played night trap but not Sega 32bit drive. Yeah Sega console was basically Frankenstein.

7:25 Fun fact on Classic arcade collection. They removed the option to play 2-players on Golden Axe, but i dont know why.

I never bought this ad on because I couldn't afford it at the moment as I had a NES, Master System, Genesis and SNES. Plus the games for each. I remember seeing it discounted at $25 but didn't buy it and I was sorry. But it's good that you have one it has several great games. Cool video Wicked!👍

Wish I still had mine. Sold it back in early 2000's.

I've found quite a some in Japanese auction site, but they often sell for extremely expensive, even for the broken one.

I have the mega CD 1 boxed in perfect condition. I bought it myself in August 1993.

Model 1 rocks!

Cool find, I had one near release - a Japanese grey import with Earnest Evans and SolFeace. Unfortunately the lack of great games in its first year made me sell it before the greater games like Final Fight CD got released ✌️

Very good i like your all collection, Great job

I have the model two sega cd. I really like it and I think that you got lucky on finding a working one.

One of the best things about Sonic CD is the music and the intro too. Many ports don't have them.

I had the mega drive back in the 90s only had the original 3 button controller but found it so much easier to use upside down so the D Pad and buttons faced away from you, able to have a finger on each button to save your thumb especially with games like echo the dolphin

I got this when it came out , it’s in my garage now In the original box with my other classic consoles. Brings back memories.

Congratulations !

😊😀 awsome collection of games for your sega CD cant belive u got most of them some of theses games cost alot :)

Still got my model 1 Mega CD and a fair few games still works well.

The mk1 had such a commanding look, born in '97 but proud to say sega was my first console affliction. Granted I started with a mk2 and then eventually came into a mk1. It's just a wonderful console. Hell I even had 2 Dreamcasts at one point.

Great job my buddy

Back in the day, a good friend of mine gave it to me because it was broken. I kept it for a few months, but since I had no MD, it ended in the garbage can. It's a big regret, sure, but it's kind of a relief to tell this story here.

Nice video 🤘

I was lucky to get a pal and a ntsc US megacd 1 at the time when they were more affordable. Needed the ntsc US version for my US games because playing them with a cdx cart on a pal system, i found that the sound has a lag especially during the fmv sections. A while ago the US system started to fail because of bad capacitors,so i thought thats it,its kaput,busted,but thank heavens i was able to find someone with master soldering skills an got it back in perfect working order.I can play popfull mail without any issues anymore. Great video and informative. Greatings from a fellow dutchman.

Sega megadrive is my all time favourite machine the Japanese model 1 is the best looking with the big 16 bit logo and blue reset button, so glad it was cartridge based so need to worry about cd drives wearing out i think the megadrive is the most reliable old school console out there and replacement chips ect can be found unlike the snes which has ppu issues without replacements to hand, such a shame I've had 2 snes die on me now but my original megadrive I've had since 1989 is still going strong i have one of the first models with a cartridge lock mech, i did have a mega cd once but sold it, sonic cd, kios flying squadron, mk1 and night trap were pretty awesome, i always remember being super excited about night trap as it was fmv and seeing those film cut scenes was pretty hardcore for the day especially on a 16bit console, good days.

Congrats on getting a sega cd model 1! I heard that these were one of if not the rarest thing you could get for a model 1 genesis. I myself have a North American model 2 and the same goes for my sega cd as well. I don’t regret the set up I have currently, but I can’t say that I’m not a little bit jealous since the design of the model 1 sega cd is really nice. I think the one issue with having that sega cd is just getting it repaired as time goes on and keeping it in good shape for years to come. By the way if the buttons on the front of the sega cd don’t turn on, then I suggest getting that checked out. Usually they have a green light and the red light glow behind them but from this footage it doesn’t seem to light up. But honestly that should be the least of your worries since it actually works and your extremely lucky. But yeah I hope that you have a good time collecting for your newly acquired sega cd model 1.

Nice pickup! I had the model 2 when I was younger and thought it was awesome but I always thought the model 1 looked cooler.

1:42 looks like someone loved their Model 1 SEGA CD Drive a little to much.

thanks you sir, i wanna back in 90s

I owned it too at the time, and the 32x also... with the 60hz mod it was a must... unfortunately I usually sold the older machines to buy the newer ones, but it doesn't matter, they were good memories...

That little slider clip down the left of the SegaCD unit is for the stereo lead from the MegaDrive front headphone jack I believe

Congrats. I still have my original first gen Genesis and model 1 Sega Cd and I love it. I also have a working and a none working spare just in case it dies.

Awesome pickup 👍👍

I had one and it seems you have a batch of fairly good games. Final Fight is definitly the best of the bunch.

loved the model 1 sega cd. I never new anyone that owned it in the 90s, only the side loaded segacd drives. Loved the segacd, was just a magical console. One of my faavorite games was Adventures of Willy Beamish. Keep hoping it gets a remaster at some poiint

Thanks. I'm surprised you haven't reviewed the ODroid N2 especially as it has a giant heatsink

I found a complete system at a yard sale for $40. Was extremely dirty but worked. I felt so bad for the dude selling it but I didn’t want to tell him it’s worth much more. Yes I own Wild Woody.

I had the model 1 as a kid. Wish I had kept it. Was my first cd player too! haha. Althought i loved Sonic CD.... I kinda enjoyed Mickey Mania most on it the most!

Megadrive/Genesis was a very popular console back in the early 90's. It was the console to have.

As regards of controllers’ shape, my favorite will always be the infra red one. Yeah, I know the signal is a problem these days but size and shape are like the best of six button and 3 button controllers together.

Ik own the mega cd 2. Bought it years ago for 20 euros. Been using it again since 2 months when i bought the Analogue Mega SG. Awesome for changing the bios to usa (with software on the SG so no chips or modding needed) and just play usa backups. No issues with expensive games or slow pal versions :)

epic work💯💯👍👍

Ahh, good memories playing MK3 on Megadrive all day and all night on Saturdays! 🤩👍✨

i had one of these. good times.

Finding a Sega CD/Mega CD in 2022 is like finding a needle in a haystack

It's a very nice looking machine. While the Sega CD has the same shell, I must say the Japan/Europe logo makes it more pleasing to look at overall.

I preferred the one with the CD drive on the side. I thought it looked more sleek and stylish. The stacked version looked very bulky to me.

I bought one recently and yes it rocks!

You need Popful Mail. Great game.

The one I had and paid 800 gulden for it... And was sooooooo dissappointed :P... It took away so much of my love for the megadrive back then. I did love Thunderhawk and Final Fight was great... But after that it was mostly fmv games or megadrive games but now with cd music and a fmv intro/outro. With the exception of the collection disc that I also had, but I am sure Monaco GP wasn't on there.

Ah the model 1 cd. Once set up it looks like some serious audiophile equipment.

I still have my dads old one and it still works perfectly

I really like the Model 1 because it looks so pro when you attach it to the Genesis. I still have mine that's in perfect condition. In fact I also have the CDX in Mint Condition!

Congrats 🥳🥳🥳 ...👺👍

I consider myself lucky for getting a Sega Mega CD Model I. I had just gotten a Mega Drive from a local Charity Shop for $5AU. So basically I decided to get the add-ons for completists' sake. The Mega CD I got from a British seller, and the 32X I got from eBay. And let me tell you, I am proud of owning the complete set. It's worth it!

I regret selling my Model 1 Sega CD

Got the sniffles am going to eat out pretty soon.

Awh man, soooo lucky!

My roommate had one of these back in the day. I remember buying the Tiger Woods golf game, because it had a hidden file you read with a PC CD-ROM. This file was the "Jesus vs Santa" South Park episode in all it's glory. Edit - Upon further review. It seems I may have crossed the memory with a Playststion memory. - will delete

Super Sega mega drive Sammlung wow vor allem das Sega Mega CD fantastic Gratulation und Kompliment an dich super prima klasse Sammlung auf sega mega drive viele Grüße von Giuseppe 😊❤️👌👍😊😊🤗👌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊😊😊

congrats! i got mine broken in 2016 for $100 and fixed it.

I started burning my own Sega CD iso files onto discs for backups

Really intresting video Sonic CD is one of the best sonic game i ever played from anime and music is really great i still love it ...

I live in America so I played the Sega Genesis. Model 1 of Sega CD the only game I know that had an issue was Mortal Kombat CD. People had to buy the game and mail away it back to the company for a working copy. Sega CD model 2 did not have this issue.

i tried once. it actually performs like it was way advanced for its time. it worked very well. the one i tried it made alot of noise when spining up the CD. was that the same? i had the IR controlers... no cables :D batteries ran fast but who cares for the TV's remote? as kid we were the remotes xD

Nice. I like the look of this Sega CD better than the ones that sit to the side.

It's about time

I picked up one of these on the original launch day…., picked up another one 8 years ago….

I had like 15 of these when the new one came out seats through them away when model 2 came out if only saved them

My first ever game i beat on the MEGA CD/SEGA CD was Lunar: Silver Star. Let me tell you i loved Working Design's dub of Lunar: Silver Star on SEGA (MEGA) CD, and PS. I also liked the releas on Saturn, (wasn't published by Working Designs though) i thing the studio to publish it on Saturn was ?kadokawa? Still have my SEGA model 1 w/ CD & 32X, would *DEFINITELY* recommend getting the Terra Onion flash cart to save on wear an' tear on the CD tbh.

the design of sonic box art is euroupe

I play SEGA-CD on the Retroad 5 Plus from Ali-Express with the MD Extension Converter and a Mega Everdrive Pro. I just can't get cutscene audio. It has HDMI out as well and different aspect ratios. I think I could even use my 8bitdo SNES dongle and the 8bitdo m30 bluetooth controller. Never tried but I will have to check. The layout may be wrong. Not sure.

I own a US sega cd v2, i always thought the original v1 looked way better. Also, i think the mega cd cases look much more appealing than my US counterparts. They are too big, prone to damage and just look odd, that goes for the saturn and early ps1 releases too. Nice vid, my analogue sg is currently connected to my v2 cd and gets love. Recently grabbed a triad power supply but havent used it yet because my 32x isnt in use.

*oooooooo nice!!* Mega CD 1 was always the nicest looking out of the different models and still screams *Expensive!* It's just a great looking machine! Final Fight CD had awesome music as did Sonic CD (Pal/Jpn) Those poor Americans missed out on that kickass intro music *Super Sonic Warrior!!* Hahaha. Classic. Road Avenger and Cobra Command were ports of Arcade laser disc games! Both are available in a double pack for Sega Saturn but only in Japan. Still have a few games myself. 👍 Mod it Wicked! Easy to fit a 50/60hrtz switch!

Why didn't we get more convenient sized jewel cases like that in America? We got the tall rectangular ones, and they cracked easy.
