That has a Genesis plug on the end of it. Might have been sold by a third-party as an alternative to the Sega Menacer and Konami Justifier for Genesis and Sega CD games... like Lethal Enforcers, T2: The Arcade Game and Crypt Killer.

Most super cheap Famiclones use the Gen style plug since it's plentiful and cheap, being the same shape used for Commodore computers and serial ports as well.

Too true.
In my case I thought I was buying a 3rd party Genesis light-gun. It looked near enough the same and that gen style plug at the end fooled me.

Comparing it to the real deal.
(I didn't notice the lack of a "start" button until I got home and hooked it up).
