atarian63 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 saw this today at target for $39. Has 80 games and decent ones mostly. 2 remote pads. Anyone have good or bad to say about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle22 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Does that one have a cart port? If so, there are most likely a few cart games that will have errors, or not run at all. That system is a "Genesis on a chip", it is not 100% completely compatible. They do a decent job, for the most part, though. Built-in games should run ok. It all depends on if you already have a bunch of games, you'd be better off with a full Genesis, CD, 32X system. If you don't have any games, 80 games for $39 sounds pretty good. I had a little hand held one with a cart port, and had fun playing Beavis & Butthead on it -K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle22 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) I hope you like it. I have been a fan of the Gen since it first came out. It seemed more "Atari-like" for some reason than the NES. Not sure why, but I like it. I have the real thing, Gen II CD, 32X, with a flash cart. I can put any game on the cart, and can burn CD's as well. I love it. -K Edited November 17, 2013 by Kyle22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, because I can't find it at the moment. I think my friend's kids had it last If I find it, I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Cade Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 It works pretty well, but the sound is wrong/off. It's like the music is out of key... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almightytodd Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Saw some of these at Walgreen's today along with FB 4's. A little pricey in my opinion, but we'll see how well it does. (...sorry about the photo rotation... ...it was right-side-up on my PC before I uploaded it!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaskenLander Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Walmart has the unit for $29.99 for those who are interested. I purchased one for my nephew for Christmas. Couldn't resist the urge to quickly hook it up and give it a test. Plays original Genesis cartidges great! Video quality is surprisenly better/sharper looking than my original Genesis -- though I only have a Gen 3 mini so maybe thats why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
