    Has anyone seen these micro megadrive II's?
    Theres one in a shop here(Argentina) for about 30euro with sonic1 and 2 joypads
    It looks like a shrunken MD2 its just barely larger than cartridge?
    Cant see it in action in the shop, considering purchasing, its boxed and says "The Alien system" on the box

    Can't get any info on the web, looks like a MD clone, I might actually buy it tomorrow(if they will set it up for me, no how would I say that in spanish lol), its so small it will easily fit in my backpack :D

    Does it have a cartridge slot?

    I have one of these:

    You can actually mod that thing to take a cartridge slot. Looks insane.

    Explain - is it basically a genny underneath with the cart slot just removed?

    I know nothing about it internally. I think there was a diary kept of it being made. Only thing I can find at the moment are the following two pics -

    Thats a sweet mod :D The internal circuitry must be there for the cart slot so - more or less a "Honey I Shrunk The Megadrive"

    Similar but comes with Sonic on Cart.
    Yep full size standard cartridge slot.
    Going out now to see if the shops open now, if not I'll get some pics of it through the window.
    Can find nothing about it online

    Sorry for the crappy picture, going to try find another one of these.
    Found nes ones that take original carts and come with small carts the size of the internal cart circuit boards
