That's a Sega Genesis. Now excuse me, I have to take my back pill.

Nah, that's a PAL Mega Drive. It runs 16% slower than a Genesis and the graphics are vertically squished. They buried it so they could use the better NTSC models.

Games for all of these PAL consoles only run 16% slower if programmers didn't do jack shit to make them properly run. Probably most of them, but still.
