Play Old NES, Genesis Carts on Gen-X Dual Station

Jan. 1 8:29 AM by Lynxara

The Gen-X Dual Station, for instance, lets you play NES and Genesis carts with a pair of six-button Genesis controllers packed right in (sorry, no ports for NES or Famicom controllers). You should be able to get a freshly manufactured copy in a box for around $50 or less. The system does play MegaDrive carts, but it seems like it wouldn't be able to play Famicom carts. Still, a good way to keep use of an aging cart collection that might not have a good working console to go with it.

If you're curious to see what it looks like in action, VideoGameCentral.com's "Old Skool Fool" has a video review up that goes over the basic points pretty neatly.
