Sega’s Genesis (and more) get an HDMI upgrade with the Mega Sg

$190 FPGA-powered hardware also supports Master System, Game Gear, and more.

After giving the high-end, HDMI-enabled aftermarket treatment to both NES and SNES hardware, Analogue is now setting its sights on recreating and upgrading Sega's classic game consoles. The $189 Mega Sg, shipping next April, promises full FPGA-driven, HDMI-powered support for a bevy of early Sega cartridges.

Out of the box, the Mega Sg will offer region-free support for Genesis/Mega Drive and Sega Master System cartridges, the latter via an included adapter. Other optional cartridge adapters (which should sell for about $10 each) will add support for the Game Gear and international Sega systems like the SG-1000, SC-3000, and Mark III. Users will also be able to connect a standard Sega CD/Mega CD hardware to play Sega's earliest CD-ROM games.

Amazon makes Kindle Paperwhite waterproof—and it still starts at $129

Amazon brought features from the Kindle Voyage and Oasis to the new Paperwhite.

Amazon

Amazon updated its best value Kindle with some of the coveted features found in its high-end, $249 Kindle Oasis. The new Kindle Paperwhite announced today has a thinner, lighter design that's now waterproof, making it the first Kindle other than the Oasis to have an IPX8 rating.

Amazon last updated the Kindle Paperwhite in 2015, giving it a better screen without raising its price. Now, the newest Paperwhite appears to be a mix of the old model and the now-defunct Kindle Voyage (the latter disappeared from Amazon's site about a month ago). It has a 6-inch, 300ppi touch display with five backlighting LEDs, and the new screen is now flush with the black bezels around it. It's still a black slab, but now it's just 8.18mm thick and weighs just 6.4 ounces.
