Spanish computer engineer Alejandro Martín has published details for a proposed retro-focused handheld called the SuperSega SSS, presenting it as a hybrid device intended to function both as a portable system and as a TV-connected console.
Martín has previously promoted retro hardware concepts, and the SuperSega SSS materials are the latest example of his work to date.
According to the project's public materials, the SuperSega SSS is designed to accept original Sega cartridges and discs.
The developer's presentation states the system will include cartridge slots compatible with Mega Drive and Master System media and an optical drive intended to read Sega Saturn and Dreamcast discs.
The project page also describes a Windows-based emulation layer for running games and outlines two planned editions: a standard model and a 'Plus' edition with upgrades such as an AMOLED screen, higher-resolution TV output, and writable support for flashable cartridges.
Martín's project page frames the device as a distinct portable design rather than an iteration of existing handhelds.
In journalistic terms, the site claims the unit "is intended to operate both as an independent handheld with an integrated display and as a living-room machine when connected to a television via an internal scaler."
The SuperSega SSS materials include concept CAD renderings and a demonstration video showing a Master System title running on the device's display.
The project's online presence presents these visuals and the technical claims but does not list an announced release date or commercial launch window.
Contextually, the hybrid handheld/TV concept echoes the commercial model popularized by Nintendo's Switch, which launched March 3, 2017, and established a mainstream expectation for devices that transition between portable and docked play.
The SuperSega SSS positions itself within the broader retro hardware and emulation scene, where enthusiasts and small teams frequently pursue dedicated devices to play legacy formats.
For now, the SuperSega SSS remains a proposed product with specifications and promotional media provided by its creator.
Martín's materials outline the intended feature set and editions, but the project has not published manufacturing, distribution, or release-date commitments.
