What about the games? The library is an interesting one. From NAOMI onwards, the arcade experience would shift largely towards the tactile experience of using custom controls, rather than the combination of interesting controls and raw breath-taking power. The Model 3 marks the end of a 30 year period that saw the technology used in arcade machines easily eclipse anything available in the home. Consequently, the Model 3 represents something of a last hurrah: Though all three of the main contemporary consoles were weaker than a Model 2 machine and expensive $250 PC Graphics only roughly comparable, from NAOMI onwards arcade platforms would be based on already-available consumer tech. Although Sega’s Model 2 hardware was already a bit beefier than their Saturn console, the Model 3 turned up In 1996 as an even more muscular platform that ended up bridging the gap between the release of the Model 2 and the arrival of the Dreamcast-based NAOMI hardware. Though most home console manufacturers were locked to a particular platform for four or five years (or, err, about 18 months in Sega’s case), in the arcade sphere things could move a lot quicker. Why would you want to add Model 3 games to your system? Well, the Model 3 arcade platform is a bit of an interesting one. If this is something that interests you, the guide will follow below. If the previous reasons we’ve looked at for getting a Raspberry Pi weren’t enough, you can now also add Sega Model 3 arcade games to your Retropie Library. JULY UPDATE: All of the per-game optimisations are built into the supermodel.ini file, so you just need to setup and Play.
