'SuperSega' FPGA Console: A Comprehensive Sega Experience

A team of dedicated Spanish Sega fans is working on creating an innovative console named 'SuperSega'. This console promises to offer a wide range of gaming experiences by replicating the performance and features of various classic Sega systems, including Mega Drive / Genesis, Master System, SC-3000, SG-1000, Saturn and Dreamcast.
