The Polymega is a home video game console developed by American company Playmaji, Inc. It is a retro gaming console offering backwards compatibility with several CD-based and cartridge-based platforms: PlayStation, TurboGrafx-CD, Neo Geo CD, Sega CD, Sega Saturn, Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Sega Genesis, Sega 32X, Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), and Nintendo 64. It includes a built-in DVD drive, while separate add-ons known as Element Modules provide support for cartridge-based games. It was announced as the RetroBlox in 2017 and faced numerous delays before being released in September 2021. The console was announced in January 2017 as the RetroBlox. It would be produced by RetroBlox, Inc, a Los Angeles-based company founded by Bryan Bernal and Eric Christensen, both former employees at Insomniac Games. Bernal was inspired to create the console after taking a trip to Japan in 2015. There, he purchased numerous PC Engine games, but was disappointed in the number of console modifications needed to make them run on a modern HD television. He sought to create a modernized console capable of playing such games without the need for modifications. The console was initially set to release in early 2018, although it faced several delays. In May 2017, the console was renamed Polymega, while RetroBlox, Inc would become Playmaji, Inc. Development on the console continued quietly over the next year, before it was shown at E3 2018.
