Blyss:
You could always see about something like one of these.  Just throwing it out there.

cesium133:
From what I've heard, those are basically emulator systems. If your games run well enough in an emulator (most do, though there are exceptions), then they're okay. I read the reviews for some of them when I was looking for a Genesis, and according to the reviews the one I was looking at has flaky controllers, though.

It's also worth checking Craigslist.

Generally, the modern systems (whether they're licensed or not, some of the Genesis clones are licensed) fall into two categories: imperfect clones, or mediocre emulators. Some of the imperfect clones have their own charm (the Atari Flashback 2 and 2+, for instance, were designed to be hackable to run 2600 cartridges), but you're usually better off buying the real thing.

I found this informative and so I'm posting it here.

its good that he noted you will need a mono to stereo connection if you want to use both speakers on your tv instead of one, and that the zapper doesn't work on flat panel monitors.

I still have one of those.  Still works.  I keep it because I never did finish playing Dragon Warrior III.
