- For those of you thinking about getting an adaptor so
- you can play Mega Drive games on your Genesis, keep this
- little piece of data in mind:
-
- The Game Genie for Genesis also acts as an
- adaptor for Mega Drive games.
-
- So if you think you might want to buy the Game Genie,
- it's silly to buy a Mega Drive adaptor.
