Sega Genesis

The Sega Mega Drive or Sega Genesis as it is better known as in North America, was a 16-bit video game console released by Sega in Japan (1988), Europe (1990) and most of the rest of the world. It debuted under the name Sega Genesis in North America (1989), as Sega was unable to secure legal rights to the Mega Drive name in that region. It was a competitor to the Super Nintendo and the last Sega game system regarded in hindsight as successful.

Legacy
After Sega had stopped producing consoles, they started releasing games on other systems, including the Game Boy Advance. Many of the games that was released included games that had previously released on the Genesis.
