Hi i wanted to know if an asian megadrive game will work on a us genesis. I dont know what model it is, but on the system, it says 16 bit, high definition graphics. Thanks
I don't want to say yes or no... although I think yes. And I think you may have a model 1 genesis
ok heres the deal alot of Genesis/MD games are non region locked.if the cartridges are shaped the same way that japanese ones are than you will have to do some modding to your casing of your genny 1 or 2. a model 3 and nomad work perfect b/c the cart slot is the same.
K. Thanks jollie, that pretty much sums it up.
no problem. ;D

Am I just misreading this? All the EARLY MD games are non region locked, but pretty much all the later ones are. For instance, I own Dragon Slayer I & II and they won't play on a Genesis. There are LOTS of MD games that are region locked.
ok heres a small list of locked games i know for a fact
DD Maui Mallard NO NTSC-U/J
Castlevania: Bloodlines US Only
Virtua Racing US Only
Exo-Squad US Only
Goofy HHT US Only
The Jungle Book US Only
Pac Attack US Only
Ren And Stimpy US Only
The Ooze NO PAL
ToeJam Earl 2 US Only
WORMS PAL Only
Sonic The Hedgehog 3 US Only
X-Men PAL Only
Zoop US Only
6-Pak Us Only
Street Fighter 2 SCE US Only
Jurassic Park US Only
Its a hit and miss but don't say all games are region free,there are bunch of games that are region locked.
Here's a vid about it.
