Holla everybody,

since there were a handfull of Sega Pico Games released by Tectoy in Brazil, why not consider adding Sega Pico (BR) as platform?   8)

I'd like to submit those few titles...

SegaRetro is down for me at the moment, so I can't confirm at this time. What we need to know before attempting:
1. I see there are a couple Portugese carts, Winnie the Pooh at least. Is this also released in EU, and if so how is the cart or packaging different?
2. I need to know what the BR box looks like for the system. I find pictures of the system but I do not know if they are imports or not. Since all of the Pico items on ML are the Japanese version, I can't trust a loose console from there.

I found a picture of a tec Toy Pico Box on this Page:

(5th. Picture)

Portuguese Pico products all have european style packaging and are considered EU releases.
Brazilian ones all show a Tectoy logo somewhere and have mostly blue packaging that distinguishes them from the other release versions.

Category created

Thanks a lot, I already submitted the first few entries to the category.
Meanwhile I hooked Up with an old PSN-Buddy from NorthEast Brazil, who supplies me with brazilian forum and trading websites to help me research. I'll try to come up with as much data as I'm able to gather.  8)

I welcome VGCs focus on reliable data presented by mods and try to dig out some hidden visual material on brazil tec toy Sega releases.

Please create the following categories under the Emerson Arcadia Platform:

1.)  Bandai Electronics Arcadia (released in Japan)
2.)  Leisure-Vision (released in Canada)

Even though each of these consoles are ROM compatible with the Emerson Arcadia 2001, they are not necessarily slot compatible.  Each console has it's own set of branded games (most of which are simply Emerson/UAL games).

I believe you also originally mentioned the Activision Home Arcade console but have since removed it from your list of requests, which seems to also have its own library. Below are links to example items for quick confirmation. Note the cartridge back design, which clearly indicates their platform-specificity.
Activision Home Arcade: 1, 2
Bandai Electronics Arcadia: 1
Leisure Dynamics Leisure-Vision: 1, 2

Please add a subcategory for Mr. Altus Das Tele-Gehirn under the Emerson platform.  I have six Mr. Altus branded titles ready for submission.
