Those aren't really new People from the hacking Scene I think call them Sega Radica. Its a bit like those Plug'n Play System Except No Plug just Play. Those are used to make Portable Genesis console, people are able to add a Cartridge slot. If you want to know more about it go here:

It's 60 dollars. You can get a Sega Nomad for like $20 if you play your cards right and $50 if you don't.

I'd be all for getting one and modding it, but when it cost that much more... when it goes to clearance, sure.

It's cool and the screen looks better than a Nomad....and I'm sure the battery life is better too. My main problem is the game selection. Its ok, but I'd get tired of it pretty quick. No Phantasy Star or Shining Force....and Arrow Flash is the only shmup. There was a thread a while back about this....I think the guy bought it so'll maybe you can search a bit and see if he liked it.
