£29.99 at www.segaretro.net

In this age of high-definition gaming, cinema-like graphics and motion-sensitive controllers, it's no surprise that some people hanker after a gentler age, where gaming environments were two-dimensional, and side-scrolling platform adventure games were all the rage.

Fans of all things retro will love the new handheld Sega Megadrive console, which comes pre-loaded with 20 of the full-size Sega Megadrive's most popular games.

While all the youngsters are playing Pokemon on their Nintendo DS, you can immerse yourself in a game of Golden Axe, Shinobi, Ecco the Dolphin or Sonic and Knuckles to while away your commute.

The handheld Megadrive has a colour LCD screen and built-in speakers, as well as a TV-out connection so you can hook it up to your TV to enjoy the best of 20th century gaming on the finest 21st century plasma screen television.

This would make a fantastic stocking filler, and a great gifts for thirty-somethings who refuse to grow up.
