Street Fighter (Plug n Play TV Games)

from: Radica

June 03, 2005
I remember how popular Street Fighter was when I was a kid. I had to have a joint Birthday and Christmas present one year just so my parents could afford to get me a Super NES with Street Fighter 2 Turbo included!!

The Special Championship Edition was only released for the Sega Megadrive and is a combination of the original Championship Edition and the Hyper/Turbo editions. It is every bit as good as the arcade and has the added advantage that you can vary the speed between original sluggish and really fast.

The controller is excellent too and is a reproduction of the 6-button Megadrive controller that was brought out specifically for playing SF2. I actually prefer this one as it weighs less and the D-pad has a "loose" ... Read More:

GBA to GameCube Link Lead

from: Radica

May 03, 2002
GBA-GC connectivity has hardly been Nintendo's most popular idea, but finding games that use it well is well worth it.
Some games like Zelda Wind Waker/Four Swords and Splinter Cell use it without you needing a GBA game or some use it only when you connect the GBA game to the GC game.
These usually are the ones that aren't as good, because it usually just unlocks bonus content (although sometimes good-Metroid Prime connected to Metroid Fusion gives you the NES Metroid on the GC game). It's usually not worth buying the GBA game for the extra content unless you are a big fan (Pokemon is a bit of an exception though- the GBA games really do make Colosseum better as you can play multiplayer).
Here are the games that use the cable and what ... Read More:

Sega Megadrive Volume 2 - Plug n Play TV Games

from: Radica

February 04, 2005
I bought this for my wife as she loved Sonic and Alex the Kidd when she was younger.

She loves it! And I'm sure she'd give it a full 5 stars, it gets four stars from me though as even when the Megadrive was out I was still a ZX Spectrum kid at heart.

If they ever bring out a ZX Spectrum version of these plug and play jobbies then I'll be ready to dish out five of those big boys.

The music and the speed of gameplay is exactly how we remember it - this is a great gadget to kill some time with nostalgia!

Radica Gold Scart Lead (PS2)

from: Radica


This cable is an okay replacement for the cable that ships with the Playstation and is composite only. Better to buy a cable that provides RGB if your TV supports it, the quaility will be much better.

Sega Mega Drive - Plug n Play TV Games

from: Radica


This is a great little game pad to buy. The game controller is exactly the same as an original Sega Mega Drive controller bar the colour & added menu button, & the battery unit is even shaped like a mini Mega Drive bar the cartridge slot & reset button! Games included are Sonic the Hedgehog, Altered Beast, Golden Axe, Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, Kid Chameleon & Flicky. All are fun games to play, & will keep you hooked for many hours. The only slight drawback with the machine is the sound quality. It is not as good as the original Mega Drive, but this doesn't stop the unit from being a worthy buy.

If you've played them all before, buy it. If you've never heard of them before, buy it!

Sensible Soccer Plus (Plug n Play TV Games)

from: Radica


Forget FIFA, forget PES, forget anything else. As far as playablility and addictiveness goes this beats them hands down. As a two-player game it is faultless - fun and fast. The only let down is the fact that the save game function isn't up to scratch (it fails to save the game when you switch off). Awesome stuff.

Light Gun

There were no problems gameplay-wise, although I found it slightly difficult to plug in with three different connections. This may have just been me. Works well with Time Crisis 3.
