The Ultimate SEGA Genesis Hardware Guide | C:C:\ | IRL

DISCLAIMER: I am no expert, I only claim to be a trained dummy. Information is for educational and entertainment purposes only. Hardware mods will not be covered, but information needed to get started will. Applies to USA markets. SegaCD, X’Eye, attachments and more coming in future videos. I have received no financial compensation for brands mentioned, all opinions are honest and my own.

This was a real labor of love, and I'm not joking when I say I had to travel time and space to find this information.

My goal was to answer as many commonly asked Genesis questions in one video, as well as providing a place to start for those who are just getting into it. I hope to save people weeks of searching and reading. Thanks for watching, thanks for reading this, and Keep Retro Rad!
