For some reason I think they should release it on GBA. I don't know why.

Because Sega isn't as greedy as Nintendo, releasing 19 year-old NES games on Game Boy Advance for 25 bucks? Beats me.

Besides, there's always the Nomad.

Besides the fact that not many people have them, Nomads are expensive and hard to find in good condition. Heh, I should know..

I certainly wouldn't be complaining if I could play portable Mega Drive games.

I'd like to play Mega Drive/Genesis games everywhere, too. But yeah, you make a point Spazz...you can't find them ANYWHERE. I had a hard enough time finding a working Sega CD a while back.

YOUSHUTUP!

I like my Nomad. It's convenient beacuse it still has the 2P controller port, and you can even hook it up to a TV. The only problem I have with it is that the cartridges stick out, instead of being placed like other portables where the cart is placed in securely and can't be shaken, causing the game to freeze.

Used Nomads blow goats. If you want me to find photographic evidence, I will, but I'm speaking from experience.

My Nomad was in close to immaculate condition when I bought it, biatch. In fact, it still even has the that little plastic seal on the screen.

I got mine from my sister. For FREE.
But she accidentally had melted the plastic seal onto the screen. Damn it all.
