Do you know when Sega started using it? I traded my Megadrive for an old Atari 800XL with a diskdrive and Basic book! :D
Honestly the Atari was way better because it had a keyboard and you could program it!
So my whole retro hardware history (with trades):
1986 C64C -> 1987 SMS -> 1993 Gameboy
1989 Megadrive -> 1992 Atari 800XL
1995 Mac Classic!?
1997 Sun Solaris (at uni.)
20 year break using mainly PC and Raspberry
2017 C64 (with RR-Net and Nunchuck64)
2022 Amiga 1200
I have promised myself to stop hoarding devices now. :P
Looking back the sadest part is how most kids never got to learn assembly on their devices back then, even if we wanted to the barrier was too high without cartridges, internet and interested parents!
I coded basic on both my C64C and Atari 800XL but I always knew it was too slow.
