After looking into that Outback Joey thing, I don't think it should count. I mean, the only way to even play that thing (at least properly) is to use a specially modified Genesis that came with it.
An example of how misinformation can be spread...
What an absolutely ludicrous rumor that you'd need a modified system to play this. I had never even heard of that rumor until I just read this.
It started with the old guard (meaning the crotchety old bastards that use to hang around DP).
Outback Joey boots and plays on an unmodified Genesis just fine. There have been rumors for years that you need the "modified" Genny it came with, but that originated from collectors that never had OJ in their collection to begin with. Other than the outside shell, nothing had been modified within the OJ Genesis. The "Heartbeat Trainer" is just a hairy Genesis...
You do need to use the peripherals that come with it, but that shouldn't make a difference. The game was also sold at retail and was not a contest cart or anything like that. There's no reason not to count it unless you're fishing for excuses to not pony up the money required to add it to your collection.

Outback Joey also kind of plays on a Sega Nomad
@TAP So what about Miracle Piano?
