The Japanese Mega Drive 2 was released on the 23rd April 1993 all it's flashy Sonic the Hedgehog style packing. The Mega Drive 2 is lacking quite a few features that the original had such as a volume control, headphone jack, modem port and power LED. The actual video & audio out socket has been changed from the old style 8pin DIN plug to the newer mini DIM plug. The back of the box shows that the Mega Drive 2 can be connected to the Mega CD 1 but what it doesn't tell you is that the metal shield that comes with the Mega CD 1 won't fit the Mega Drive 2 plus the Mega Drive 2 also doesn't fit perfectly flush on the system due to a foot rest being in the center of the Mega Drive 2 |

And here is the actual hardware. It does look quite small and I
guess it is compared to the original but to be honest it does feel and
look cheap to me. I prefer the original version any day. And
what's with the red cartridge door flaps? At least the Mega Drive 2 comes complete with 1 six button pad. |
