According to the Dutch wikipedia page on the SC-3000, it should be possible to port games from other systems to this baby:
Translated quote:
The SC-3000 has the same processor and display processor as the Sega SG-1000, MSX1, Spectravideo SV-318 and Coleco ColecoVision. In addition, it has the same sound chip (which is also used in the Sega Master System), making the possibilities of these systems virtually identical in terms of hardware. The only exception is MSX computers, which use a different sound chip, the General Instrument AY-3-8910. This is almost identical to the Texas Instruments SN76489A.
This has made it relatively easy to convert computer games between the four different systems. An emulator such as blueMSX makes use of these agreements and currently emulates the SG-1000, SC-3000, ColecoVision and Spectravideo SV-318 alongside the MSX standard. Currently the Sega Master System is not yet supported.
Thanks for sharing this. I had never heard that Sega had put out a computer. To the internets I go looking for more info!
Late to the party, but for anyone that might land here, please take the time to check out a group with a particular passion for the SC-3000, our site is sc-3000.com/ and we also have a presence on FB (facebook.com/groups/sc3000/).
