From Sega's official Chinese distributor AtGames comes another hot gadget that will bring all your fond memories of Sega's 16bit era back to life.

This official product contains twenty hot built-in Mega Drive games and in addition to this, the console is compatible with original Mega Drive Genesis games from Japan, USA and Europe.

This is made possible by the NTSC/PAL switch installed at the back of the console. Most US NTSC Genesis and Japanese Mega Drive games can be played via the consoles's NTSC mode, while European Games can be played in the PAL Mega Drive mode.

Please note that, however, newer titles which are region protected, such as Comix Zone are not compatible with the console and due to region encoding, incompatibility issues may also occur with some other titles.

Aside from your old collection, this console also plays so called RedKid catridges. These are specially designed carts, distributed by AtGames and fully licensed by Sega. New RedKid catridges and multi game compilations are currently being developed and will be made available in the near future.

The package contains two six-button joypads, an AV Mono cable, a multi voltage power supply as well as an instructions sheet.

The Twin Pad Player features standard Mega Drive joypad ports, so other official or third party pads can be connected in exchange of those ones that are supplied with this bundle.

I've always wondered how these types of systems are legal? They can't be licensed by SEGA can they? There are several systems like this I've seen advertised but I've always wondered how the companies that manufacture them don't get in trouble.

it's probably the same reason emulators and roms are legal as long as there's a disclaimer saying you must own original game then they can get away with it and they usually made in china and copyright law does'nt really mean a lot

sega is one of the few who do license this stuff

also we have officially licensed nintendo game boy advanced flip down mobile tv screens in our warehouse, complete with doofy looking nes2 style wireless controllers, just incase you wanted GBA on a 17 inch lcd in your car (bling bling wario wares foldin dooown baby)

i think it all has to do with drunken barbecues and some bad feelings in the morning, which is how we got 2 palettes of wii's last xmass
