So, Brazilians, what are some of your favourite Brazil exclusive Master System and Mega Drive games?

Mortal Kombat 3.
Not that it was exclusive or anything, but you got it for free with the console. Which meant it was the only game 99% of people had, of course, since cartridges used to cost a hundred bucks or so back then.

i heard tectoy still sell megadrive/master system consoles with a billion games built in and the ability to play cellphone java games. is there still a market for that for people who aren't rio playboys with jobs in the financial sector or is it just a cute novelty.

[Areku]

They do make the consoles, and some cartridges too. However, since Tectoy lacks the copyright to any of the famous games, almost everything built into the machine are cheap ripoffs of successful titles.

So yeah, there is market for it. That of the people who just wanna play a videogame and never heard of Sonic before.

why would anyone want to play sonic

[Castle]

Because they're under the age of 10 years old and a wealthy family friend bought them a Sega Genesis and the original Sonic games.

you all listen here

Everyone wants to play Sonic. Nobody can play Sonic, though, since Sonic is effing elusive.
I and several people I know spent most of our youths in search of a real Sonic game for the Genesis. Two years ago, I managed to track a cartridge of Sonic & Knucles in a small antique shop on the edge of town. Then, when I got there, I discovered it was actually a Master System cartridge circuit crudely attached to the cover of a Genesis one with super glue. I bought it anyways, out of spite for the one-eyed shopkeeper. I still don't know what game actually is actually in that cartridge.

Anyways

The lesson in all that is

If you remove the circuit board from a bricked X360 and cut a slot in the top, you can neatly fit a Genesis or N64 in there and plug the controllers through the CD drive opening.

This shopkeeper probably has his two eyes

Areku come to Seattle and we can dig through my basement together and find my Genesis and every single Sonic game + some Castlevania games and others I'm probably forgetting about because I didn't grow a soul until I was like 18
