it has pretty good durability
Excellent custom mount for the Nomad
Easy to assemble and is the perfect spot for my unit
very well crafted and packed incredibly well
Nomad is one of the best examples
the Nomad puts up a decent fight for being 25 years old
The buttons feel nice when pressed
work well

the lack of a RESET button
hard to keep straight which ones were never released
the system is much bulkier and becomes more awkward to handle
inability to play Sega CD or 32X
the cartridge sticks out way too much
never leave vintage electrical or electronic products plugged in unattended
its size and pathetic battery life
it is not practical to play a two person game using the built in display
rather flimsy battery pack
Do not use a vintage electrical or electronic item
No special material is needed to clean or dust it off

Nomad screen doesn't hold a candle to the Switch
a little more cumbersome to play close to an outlet
the screen is very fragile

Is Sega Nomad worth it?
glady.bechtelar
about 2 years ago
Yes, the Nomad is worth it only if you find a good model with a good battery and screen. The screen of the Sega Nomad was the best in the generation, so if you can find one in a reasonable price, do not miss the chance!

Classic Game Room - SEGA NOMAD review - video Dailymotion

Classic Game Room HD reviews the portable SEGA NOMAD, the Sega Genesis Nomad that plays Sega Genesis game cartridges on the go! Sort of, although this is portable it really isn't that portable due to its size and pathetic battery life. But that doesn't stop it from being a worth addition to any Sega Genesis fan's library. You can play Genesis games on the couch, in bed, on a long road trip. Wherever you want, just don't try to throw this thing in your pocket and save games frequently. This CGR hardware review of the Sega Genesis nomad has pictures and video of the Sega Nomad showing the Sega Nomad playing Sega Genesis video games.
