Seriously, it’s bonkers to pull out my Sega CD copy of Night Trap and play that with no problems (and by playing, I, of course, mean dancing around the room to the theme tune).Īlmost as crazy is spending the entire evening getting my strategic game on with Metal Gear Acid, followed by getting them throwback feelings on Super Mario Sunshine on the Gamecube and Seaman on the Dreamcast.

From there, it’s just a case of signing up for a Microsoft Developer Account for $19, connecting it to your Xbox and boom - you have developer mode on your Xbox. To tee things off, you need to search for “Dev Mode Activation” on your Xbox app store, then install and open it.
