Best way to play the Sega CD original hardware?

[NanoSoft]

Hey RGT, Nano here. I was wondering the best way to play the Sega CD with original hardware because there are multiple revisions of it and the Genesis as well. The best way to experience Sonic CD on its original hardware would be appreciated, thanks.

I think you'd want a Genesis Model II paired with the original SEGA CD for this. The Model I is a bit of a mess to get set-up and the Model 3 doesn't even allow you to connect add-ons to it.

Actually, I made a mistake: you want the SECOND SEGA CD model for this. I somehow forgot that they had released a big one first.

Thanks for the update! Yea I saw an older one with the Genesis model 1 too. My other question is, besides Sonic CD, if there is anything worth playing on the SCD?

Absolutely! Lethal Enforcers is great. So is Snatcher. Their take on Monkey Island, while a bit awkward, is pretty good, too. Then you had the Terminator games... and there's the cult classics like Night Trap.

I would say:
Flink and Popful Mail are the top of my list. I never got into the FMV games much
