Mega Drive Portable is a series of handheld Mega Drive/Genesis clones manufactured by Zoga and distributed by multiple companies in China, Russia, and South America. The systems were first sold (by Simba) on March 27, 2007. The series is notable for using unique cartridges which resemble Game Boy Advance carts.

Overview

The Mega Drive Portable itself comes with the unit itself, 4 triple-A batteries, a pair of earphones, a small black pouch with "Mega Drive Portable" branding, a charger, an A/V cable for playing on a TV, and the console's instructions manual. The console also features a system UI, which is accessed upon turning on the console without a game. Though this menu is mostly useless, as the "Settings" menu doesn't affect the device itself, and the buttons are mixed up.
