Brazilian-based company, Tec Toys, are adding another Sega device to their list, a portable Mega Drive.  Unfortunately not quite as cool as the Nomad- the real handheld Mega Drive, from Sega. 

This ‘Portable Mega Drive,’ does not take Mega Drive/Genesis cartridges, instead, like so many other similar handhelds, has several built in games.

Some 20 games to be precise: 

1. Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle
2. Alien Storm
3. Altered Beast
4. Arrow Flash
5. Columns III
6. Crack Down
7. Decap Attack
8. Dr. Robotnik´s Mean Bean Machine
9. Ecco the Dolphin
10. Ecco Jr.
11. E-SWAT: Cyber Police City Under Siege
12. Flicky
13. Gain Ground 
14. Golden Axe 
15. Jewel Master
16. Kid Chameleon 
17. Ristar 
18. Sonic and Knuckles
19. Shadow Dancer – The Secret of Shinobi
