    Yeah, the SD card slot lets you add your own roms to the handheld.



    I got the AtGames clone console version as a Christmas gift last year and I honestly like it. A lot of people give it crap for the bad sound emulation, but it works for a quick-and-dirty Genesis experience. Its small enough and light enough that I can toss it in my bag on trips.

    hmm, I think I would grqab one of these for the fun of it if they were like 20 bucks or less.

    These sell locally around here for $59.99, I think it is neat for the casual gamer who wants to revisit some Genesis action but not for me unless I can snag one at Goodwill for $4.99.

    I got the ATGames Portable Genesis on StoneAgeGamer.com during their Black Friday sale for $25.00. I think my local Dollar General also carried it for arounf the same price at the time but I did not know of it until later. I do know them and my local Walgreens carries the clone console version for around $49.99. My portable Genesis did not come with the Wily Wars so I think it is either an older version or newer version... Not sure. But it did come with the SD card slot... So I have mt Genesis ROMS on there and can take them anywhere with me. Great for me as I have kids and sometimes just want to play a quick game without having to hook up my Genesis and what not. It works great for me besides sometime sound is a little off but nothing horrible.



    If you can pick up one of these portables for around $25 - $30 I'd say go for it... Any more than that would be too much in my opinion.



    Also, remember that it says it comes with "80 games" or something like that but only about 40 of those are actual Genesis games.. The rest are crappy flash type games. But I do have to say the 40 Genesis games mine came with are a pretty decent selection of titles.

    The handheld is worth picking up. Just a heads up Dollar General has a $5 off coupon for Dec 14th
