Mega Drive Portable clone available at Play Asia



Popular games consoles in the cyber world are increasingly falling prey to piracy. The low-priced cloned versions always do not match the quality of the originals. However, their low prices do not leave much space for complaint from gamers with low budget. The TechToy Mega Drive officially licensed by Sega is having competition from its clones - the first one being from Brazil and currently a more recent cloned device has been discovered on Play-Asia.com.

The 16-bit video games console from Sega has been popular in Brazil and Europe, but had been unable to attain any significant share in the American and the Japanese gaming market. In North America, Mega Drive goes by the name Genesis to avoid trademark related confusion. The Mega Drive had huge initial success, when it was first released as the then gaming world was tired of the 8-bit NES. After Nintendo arrived, it is becoming increasing difficult for Sega Mega Drive to retain its popularity.

The duplicate devices, it seems, will not be able to find many takers since the original gaming device has lost the huge chunk of its customers already to Nintendo.
