Something I didn't see mentioned: The Mega Drive/Genesis models 1 and 2 are backwards compatible with the Master System (but not the SG-1000) through a cartridge slot adapter called the Power Base Converter. If you have a Mega EverDrive, it can be used to play Master System ROMs.

  The Z80 cpu used in genesis for sound processing and it can used in the compatibility mode to run master system games.

    The MD VDP also supports SMS video mode (but not the original TMS9918 modes)

      This is why F-16 Fighting Falcon doesn't work on the MD.
