Default Today is a sad day for me...

So I decided to hook up my trusty Sega Megadrive today. I've been playing some Sonic 2 on the 360, but nothing beats the original Megadrive controller.
I was enjoying the warm nostalgic feelings untill I got to the Casino level, when my Megadrive simply stopped working...
And now it won't power up anymore.

That Megadrive has been in my life for so many years. I am truly sad....

Just needed to share this, it helps a little.
(And maybe someone has some tips on how to fix the thing?)

Casino Night Zone doomed you.

Worst level ever.

Sorry about that, sucks.

Buy another one? This isn't like a pet dog or something, this is my megadrive! Buying another one would be spitting on his grave!

Blow in the cartridge slot and then give it a hug.


Your love will bring it back to life.

Then buy another one then swap the internals. Transplant to save your Megadrive's life.
