You can play imports on non-TMSS systems.
Actually, you can play imports on any Genesis so long as they don't have regional lockout. And of course when playing Japanese games you need to mod your system so they'll physically fit. For games with lockout, you need to mod your system with region switches, regardless if it has TMSS or not.

Some of the earlier EA and Accolade games will not run on a system with TMSS however.
