🌊1983–1985

R36S SG-1000 Games

Japan-only release

Sega's first home console launched in Japan on the same day as the Famicom in 1983 and was comprehensively outsold. Its hardware became the basis for the Master System, so the two libraries are closely related.

SG-1000 Games

Perfect

on every R36 model (all use the RK3326 chip)

How well does SG-1000 run on the R36S?

Full-speed on all R36 models — it is the least demanding Sega system supported.

SG-1000 on Each R36 Model

The chip is the same in every model, so the rating is too. What differs is the screen: 4:3 panels suit most home consoles, the 1:1 square panel suits Game Boy and GBA and shows 4:3 games with bars.
