	ClassicGaming - The Museum: Sega Megadrive FAQ
		The Megadrive was renamed Genesis and released in America in September 1989.
		The Megadrive was the early 90's most successful console and gained a huge library of arcade conversions, sports and original titles.
		Extra graphic abilities included the ability to display graphics layered over standard Megadrive graphics for example on the 32x version of Mortal Kombat II the backgrounds were made by the Megadrive whilst the sprites were handled by the 32x.

	The Acorn Emulation Page - Megadrive/Genesis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		The Megadrive (or Genesis as it was known in the America) was Sega's 16 bit console for the early 90s.
		Indeed, since the megadrive had some of the most renowned game development companies working on games for it, it is unsurprising that in many fields the quality of the megadrive games far exceeds that of native Acorn games.
		A general problem with every Megadrive emulator, is that of palette splitting as often used for underwater effects (see level 2-2 of Sonic 2), where the screen palette changes partway down the screen and is nearly impossible to emulate properly.

	Sega Megadrive - Review - Sega rise to power with the SONIC BOOM
		These were the 2 main models, although a Megadrive III, an even smaller machine, was released in the USA, as well as the Ultra-rare CDX, which was a Megadrive and Mega CD built in, not to mention the Nomad, a portable version of the console.
		As I mentioned, the Megadrive is a 16-Bit console, and debuted in the late 1980s, which means that it’s games are all firmly rooted in 2 Dimensions.
		The default Megadrive controller was fairly large, and had curved sides, which made it stand out from the small, angular and incredibly painful NES conroller.

	Sega Megadrive
		Once American gamers caught sight of the arcade-perfect graphics the Megadrive was capable of offering, there was no turning back to the comparatively primitive NES.
		Although NEC's Turbografx 16 had beat the Megadrive to market by nearly four months, Sega quickly regained lost ground thanks to their line-up of quality arcade conversions and killer sports games.
		From 1990 through to late 1991, the Megadrive was pretty much the only kid on the block.

	Sega Mega-Drive FAQ
		Megadrive was redesigned in 1993 and this was known as the Megadrive 2.
		These carts were not compatible with a standard Megadrive due to the extra information that was stored on them to run the second monitor,a different length edge connector, number of pins, pinouts, and spacing.
		The best game was based on the Megadrive game Toejam and Earl which the player fired tomatoes at enemies from the Toejam and Earl game.

	La Megadrive / Genesis - Des choix hasardeux - Emu Nova
		En 1993, la Megadrive fut remplacée par un nouveau modèle, en même temps que le Mega CD première génération qui souffrait de problèmes mécaniques et coûtait trop cher à fabriquer.
		Non, en fait la Megadrive fut assassinée par les nombreux conflits entre les différentes branches de Sega et surtout par la formidable incompétence de certains décideurs dont la calamiteuse politique de fin 1993 jusqu'à 1999 a détruit ce que Sega Of Japan avait mis des années à construire.
		Ce qui est sur, c'est que la Megadrive restera dans l'histoire comme l'une des meilleurs consoles jamais crées et que, malgré ses limitations techniques, elle réussit à s'imposer sur le marché grâce à la qualité de sa logithèque.

	Megadrive Emulaytion
		We know now that the Megadrive games can be copied from the original cartridges to pc.
		The electronics of a pc compared to a Megadrive are totally different; so the Megadrive emulator emulates the Megadrive's electronics virtually so the game can be played on the Pc.
		Which means the games you play on an emulator will never be 100% the same on the Megadrive its self.
