It's a portable Genesis! It just doesn't get any better.
The backlit color screen is a plus too, as it's 2004 and Nintendo is just now realizing that this is a good idea.
Well, its huge for a handheld, and has terrible battery life... But considering its an entire Genesis, this is kinda moot.
The Sega Nomad is probably the best handheld ever released. Certainly the most powerful for a long time.
It plays all Genesis games, minus a few REALLY early ones, and ones than require a special controller in the Player 1 port.
Yea, it has terrible battery life, but hey, that's the price you pay for portablization, right? And besides, with the ability to hook the Nomad up to a TV and connect a second player, you have a full-fledged Genesis too!
But unfortunately, everyone has realized how cool this system was, and it now commands a pretty premium on eBay (anywhere from $40 for a barebones system with no accessories or games to $100 for a system with a few good games and somenice accessories). I got mine a thrift shop for $5 though, so just look around.
