Sega MD Genesis carts

Post by Jeff-20 »

I'm looking for any extra Sega MD or Genesis carts. Let me know if you have any you're willing to part with.

I am particularly interested in The Misadventures of Flink. It was only released as a cartridge in Europe. Foreign language, hacks, bootlegs, and other oddities are also welcome.

I used to live in Japan and at one point had quite a collection of Mega Drive games. I'll have to ask around / search for them though as it has been several years and I'm not sure I even have them in my house (could be with a relative). Several were Japan-market carts.

If memory serves, Japanese MD games only work on a Japanese MD unless you have a converter.

Close -- I think I needed to cut notches or break little angled plastic bits out of the Genesis my brother owned so he could enjoy them back in the States - a pair of fragile tabs that prevented a cartridge from being inserted, something along those lines, but a very simple physical modification.

I do most of my MD gaming via emulator these days. I have two MDs and 30+ games that I retrieved from my parents' garage and hardly ever use. Most of the games I have are pretty common; Splatterhouse 2 and Ghostbusters are about as rare as it gets.

I sometimes think about collecting MD games, but they're too expensive and I have enough on my plate with the GameGear.

They have a few copies of Flink on eBay as well as the Mega CD version.

Cool! Thanks. I was hoping for a cheap copy. I'm not at all a box collector for this system. I just wanted to play the game as a cart. I'll put it on my flash cart this weekend and check it out. I'm not sure if I want to spend that much on it.
