Polymega (2021)

Polymega is a modular disc-based retro system whose base unit outputs up to 1080p over HDMI 1.4, upscaling classic games for modern TVs. Networking is well covered with built-in Wi-Fi plus a wired Gigabit Ethernet port, and two USB 2.0 ports handle controllers and storage. A microSD slot expands local storage. Cartridge support comes from swappable Element Modules that clip onto the base rather than through any cable, so your main connections are simply HDMI, Ethernet and USB.

Modular retro console with 1080p HDMI 1.4 output, Gigabit Ethernet, two USB 2.0 ports and a microSD slot.
