You have a pretty large Sega Genesis collection from the looks of it, heh. But I suppose you could look after some of those Japanese/EU titles that didn't get a US release. These titles don't require you to read Japanese as they're mainly action based and not RPGs. - Alien Soldier (JP/EU) - Golden Axe III (JP) - Battle Mania (JP) - Pulseman (JP) - Second Samurai (EU) - Twinkle Tale (JP) |

I do have a couple but never tried them thinking they wouldn't work. |

MOST JPN MD games just need a pass through device but some like Light Crusader won't work unless you have a specific adapter. |

I think the EU Mega Man: The Wily Wars also requires a special adapter to play. I'm not going to lie, I LOVE that Sony did away with that region locking nonsense with their systems and the other two mostly followed suit. |
