New TerraOnion Saturn / DC ODE soon

[L_____E_____T]

Hi, just saw this and thought I'd share the good news - YT video covering it all (skip ahead):

Already up for pre-order on their store:
https://shop.terraonion.com/en/home/17-Terraonion_MODE_Dreamcast_Saturn_ODE.html

Handy for people like me waiting forever and a day for the Satiator for example.

Pre-orders will probably be full soon, TO's stuff is always lauded.

Thats pretty cool

Wow, so it's a Gdemu, Phoebe and Rhea in one?

 

[L_____E_____T]

Looks like it! Tons of features, easy setup, and other plus points. I pre-ordered two, I might try and sell my GDEMU Dreamcast if this is going to do everything that does and more. Still want a Satiator though!

Looks great. Let's us know how you get on

 

[Hurray Banana]

embedded video for you

That's 3 options now then if the Satiator comes out too.

 

[trev1976]

Just watched the video. That thing is awesome

I take it you have to pay upfront for these ? trev19762020-04-17 21:53:03

This is great. Enjoying my Mega SD even though the customer service end of things is cack.

I saw this one the other day, about to take orders, https://8bitmods.com/fenrir/

Thanks Banana for the embed

Experiencing a little of this support frustration myself tbh, but giving them a chance to reassure me.

WOW looks awesome till it got to the 199 Euro price tag!! Ill be sticking with the GD-Emu

Fenrir and a GDEmu clone will be about £50-70 less (don't forget the customs charges you will have to pay from TO) and you can use them in your Saturn and DC simultaneously.

As per usual with TO stuff it is really neat, but very pricey. Unlike the SSDS3 there are alternatives though.

Wouldn't buy from them again after the fiasco last time. Pre-ordered an item from them when they were still in Spain, then they moved to Andorra which meant I got stung for a customs bill when the item shipped eventually. Couldn't cancel the pre order either.

I have the Fenrir, it works great.

I've heard they have a real attitude problem, and all reports confirm it. The irony here is that they moved to Andorra precisely to avoid having to honour EU policy on refunds. This blog outlines some of that story: http://www.publicshaming.co.uk/2019/01/27/terraonion/

 

[Vinegar Joe]

Yeah, if there are alternatives I'll avoid TO. I've not dealt with them personally but they sound awful.

I'm glad Krikzz is releasing a competitor for the Mega SD, which will be cheaper since he sells via multiple retailers, including some in the UK:

I think the only TO product that has no real competition is the SSDS3.

 

[L_____E_____T]

I'm looking forward to that Krikkz cart, playing NES on MegaDrive does it for me!

 

[gojira54]

I regretted buying anything from TO, horrible to deal with - never giving them any money again.

Pretty funny that article is moaning like he bought something from amazon. Declaring his rights and all. When he will be breaking the law loading it with roms he doesnt own. Maybe do research next time before posting a damning article. Why get an mvs sd cart if you already have an aes anyway?
