SuperSega Explains It’s Afraid Analogue Will Steal Its Ideas

SuperSega, the project behind a FPGA console aiming to run games from all Sega home consoles, has faced backlash over poorly shot videos and misleading marketing. The Spanish development team has released a Q&A addressing some of these issues.

Key Points

SuperSega aims to adhere strictly to a published timeline. Despite these challenges, their ambitions remain clear: delivering an FPGA console that can run all Sega classic games with minimal performance compromises.


Do you think SuperSega’s concerns about Analogue are grounded in reality? Have you pre-ordered and been charged the full amount?

I do not think they should be afraid of Analogue. It’s not like they release a new machine in 2 weeks. Also, they much prefer to sell 1 machine per console rather than an all-in-one machine.

Regardless of what they have, as a consumer, the SuperSega looks like a vaporware. It’s a very ambitious project and we have almost nothing that confirms they are able to build such machine.

Analogue is also very bad when communicating, but they have a good-enough track record (at least hardware-wise, software is usually bare-bones at launch).
