Megadrive Daughterboard

  This board is really refined. The Japanese board is chaos itself, with tons of hand wired revisions. The Amstrad machine isn't just re-branded Japanese components. It's a seperately produced machine with some real benefits over its Japanese brother.

A Key Difference: The lack of upgradability. The Japanese machine has a pop out on top that can be punched out, most likely for CD-ROM upgrades. The machine was designed too early on for the 32X.                     Return to Amstrad Mega PC
