I made a mildly irresponsible retro gaming collection purchase this week. Price anchoring is a terrible thing - when you've seen something desirable frequently go for a thousand bucks or more, suddenly seeing one going for only several hundred looks like the bargain of the century. Especially when it's something I'd resigned myself to never collecting... but apparently it was still desirable enough to me to jump on it. Anyway - I look forward to showing a rare SEGA MegaDrive here soon.

This is my mildly irresponsible purchase: a #SEGA Mega Jet. It's a handheld-ish #MegaDrive from 1993; mine is the '94 retail version, but these were initially sold to Japan Airlines to rent to harried parents on flights to keep their kids occupied. The original JAL-branded version plugged into a proprietary flip-out LCD screen in the arm rest so you could play games in flight, either from the plane's library or you could BYO cartridges. This thing's story is wild. Stay tuned. #retrogaming
