It was aired on CITV, on 1st December 1994, and it featured an array of things; a 32X, Sega Saturn, but most curiously a Scorpion XVI, otherwise known as a Sega Scorpion or Scorpion 16. This Sega Mega Drive & Genesis clone console was such an unexpected and mysterious artefact, that it stuck in my mind for years to come, and I wasn't the only one. But just as suddenly as it appeared, it vanished, without a trace. So, let's get to the bottom of this mystery and take a look at a Scorpion console, in the flesh. Huge thanks to the excellent Violet Berlin and tremendous Steve Keen for helping with this episode. 🔗Video Links🔗 Scorpion XVI 32X Compatibility Test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lEO-LRL_ZE Sega Scorpion 32X Mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KbW_2pN6mk 90s High Streets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quslVNMvrF0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Otw0_GS9vPg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDbhY-NSXGc Bad Level 10 (with Violet & Steve): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLzh9wkQyg0 Details of the KW501 at Sega Retro: https://segaretro.org/KW-501 TristaBytes: https://www.youtube.com/c/TristaBytes Larry Bundy Jr: https://www.youtube.com/c/larry 🏆 Support 🏆 Support my channel, get exclusive videos & perks, as well as an ad and sponsor free experience at https://www.patreon.com/nostalgianerd from just $1 🏪 NN Shop & Affiliate Links! 🏪 My eBay Shop: https://nnerd.es/NerdShop (Now Re-open!)
