	Sega Nomad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Nomad was never officially released in PAL territories such as Europe and Australia.
		Sega released the Nomad in October of 1995 for $180 USD.
		The 32X and Sega CD were not compatible with the unit (although given the technical limitations of hardware at the time, this was understandable).

	Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although the Sega Master System had proved a success in Brazil and Europe, it failed to ignite much interest in the North American or Japanese markets, which by the mid-to-late 1980s were both dominated by Nintendo with 95% and 92% market shares respectively.
		Sega announced their North American release date for the system in 1987, becoming the second console to feature a 16-bit CPU (the first one being the Mattel Intellivision) and the first to feature single instruction 32-bit arithmetic.
		By 1994, Sega's market share had dropped from 65% to 35%, and the official announcements of newer, more powerful consoles, such as the Saturn, Playstation, and N64 signaled that the 16-bit era was drawing to a close.

	Retro Gaming Reviews and More - Donnie Sergent Jr
		On paper, it would seem the Sega Genesis Nomad would be the perfect color portable, addressing all of the faults from previous handhelds to make it a serious threat to the Game Boy's future dominance.
		Sega wanted to surprise consumers and get a leg up on the PlayStation, but what they did was send mixed signals to loyal, trusting Genesis owners.
		After all, the Nomad was released at the tail end of the last great year for the Genesis.

	ClassicGaming.com - The Museum: Genesis
		Although the Genesis development kit was reportedly overly expensive and initially difficult to work with, by the end of 1990 there were over 30 third-party developers writing games for the new system, compared to four for the TG16.
		Sega introduced the Sega CD late in the year, and despite all the hype that had been built up over the last two years, the Sega CD sold very poorly, partially due to its $200+ initial asking price.
		Sega never recovered from the 32X fiasco, and many believe that the sales of the Saturn were also hurt by it.

	Sega Consoles (Shin Force: Information: General)
		The Sega Genesis is well known for its marquee series: Sonic the Hedgehog, Streets of Rage, Madden Football, NHL Hockey, Phantasy Star, Shining Force, Herzog Zwei and Landstalker.
		Sega saw a need to release a console which combined the Sega Genesis with the Sega CD in one convenient box.
		Sega also had plans to release an all-in-one console (Genesis/Sega CD/32X), but that never came to market as the 32X was not popular enough and the release of the Saturn essentially killed the 32X as a viable 32-bit console.

		During its lifetime, the Sega Genesis was the platform for a multitude of games, many of them now classics that set the standard for modern 32 bit titles.
		Alas, Sega did not continue their tradition of backward compatibility, and did not produce an adapter for the Saturn that would allow Genesis cartridges and SegaCDs to be played on the new system.
		Software that emulates the Sega Genesis is in a bit of a greyish area however, because Genesis games still retain copyrights and it is illegal to distribute the rom images (a data file copied from the cartridge).

	Sega Nomad Time Machine - Emuboards (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		I was wondering how hard it would be to create add on hardware (sega nomad) for gba by taking out all the extra stuff out from sega nomad such as screen speakers, etc, and turn it into an adapter that will play sega genesis games on gba.
		the nomad is a battery hog, and if you were to do this it would be even more of a battery hog because you'd have to power the nomad hardware as well as the gba.
		I thought the reason for sega nomad being a battery hog is because of its screen which is better than that of gba.

		Expanding on previous ideas behind notable handhelds, Sega released this system, which was capable of playing the library of its popular Genesis home console on the go.
		More than just a portable Genesis, it was also capable of being hooked up to a television and even had a plug so a second player could hook up a controller and enjoy competing against the Nomad's owner.
		The Nomad was just one facet of the company's stupidly large hardware lineup, and while the Genesis was popular, they didn't have the time or money to promote it properly.

	Retro Thing: SEGA Nomad: A handheld Genesis
		Sales of the Nomad suffered because it was released near the end of the Genesis console's lifespan, and wasn't compatible with Genesis accessories such as the 32X (32-bit console add-on) and SEGA CD.
		The Nomad is wickedly cool for all the reasons you cite, and of course problematic for all of the reasons that you cite.
		Majesco also manufactured the Genesis 3 which is a teeny Genesis about the size of a couple CD's stacked up (not to be confused with the Genesis CDX which was a portable CD player with Genesis cart port built in that could play Sega CD games - MAN do I want one of them!).

		Note from Nomad manual: Some software requiring special peripherals attatched to Console Port 1 cannot be used with the Genesis Nomad.
		Because the Nomad can be hooked into your TV, you can get around the "unreadable text" problems if you're near a TV and you have the appropriate cables.
		Sure, the Nomad is a tad pricey and I think the price could drop about $40 or so, but consider what you are really getting: A Genesis with no "expansion" abilities, ie: you can't add the CD-ROM.

		After Atari had moved their efforts over from the console market to the computer market, Sega were one of the biggest games console manufacturers of their time.
		They went from 8-bit consoles on to 16 and 32 bit machines before finally coming to an end after the phenomenal release of the Sony Playstation.
		OK so Sega were the first to introduce a CD based machine, but it appears that they were to early and the console technology wasn't ready, and how could they be expected to compete with the big money marketing campaign launched by such a huge company as Sony.
