Mega Drive Quality Ratings

[evildragon]

I think we need to make a rating chart of the sound and video qualities of Mega Drives. PRE-mods..

For example.. Chart is to be numbered from 1, to whatever the last revision VA board.. This is to be for official models only, NO clones. Not even tec-toy, unless you guys really want too...

I know this may take some time, but I think we need to colaborate and make a chart that will help first time buyers know what the best is...

Oh, and no two board revisions should have the same rating number.. If there are literally no changes that can be seen or heard, then, and only then, can they share a number..

Anyone else for this idea?

I think it's a great idea for people who aren't aware of the differences to view brief info on the fly. Then they can visit that handy guide thread for more in depth information if they want to.

Very good idea

This would be great for me. I have wanted to look up which models are best but ever thread I open turns into a nightmare of technical info. Such a chart would help people like me.

I see that thread linked to all over the net, its very informative and I found it interesting to read, but I agree would be nice to have a quick reference list to check against

Just created a thread trying to pinpoint revision dates on motherboards vs CPU brands and video encoders, and didn't see this thread until after! This sounds like a different means to the same end. If enough people contribute, it would only make sense to integrate both of these ideas into the same thread, making the ultimate Genesis resource list.
