Polymega Remix can digitize retro games for Windows 11 PCs and handhelds, USB peripheral accepts games CDs, cartridges — $199 units finally ship next month following years of production delays

Playmaji has opened pre-orders for the Polymega Remix, a $199 USB peripheral that lets owners digitize and play physical retro games on Windows 11 PCs, laptops, and PC gaming handhelds through a free companion app, and is scheduled to ship next month, having completed mass production.

Remix accepts CD-based games from consoles including the PlayStation, Sega Saturn, Sega CD, TurboGrafx-CD, and Neo Geo CD through a built-in optical drive. Cartridge-based systems from the NES through the N64 are supported via Playmaji's Element Modules, which are sold separately at $80 each. There are six modules in total: NES/Famicon, SNES/ Super Famicom, Genesis / Mega Drive, TurboGrafx-16, Nintendo 64, and Atari 2600 / 7800. Once a game is digitized, users can disconnect the Remix hardware and play from their device's local storage.
