Well, those have been around for years. I know Toy's R Us carries them. I have an earlier model. They work great. However, it seems to have issues with a handful of games. I'd say it's about 97% compatible with the Genesis library. It's a great way to preserve your classic system. However, if you're going to by a third party system, get one of these:

Just for the record, none of these third party systems are well made. The are all know to break pretty easy. They are cheap.

They appear to be IR controlled, not RF. If that's the case, then I'd just buy a set of IR controllers and use em with a real Genesis.

I've been told that if you buy one of these systems... you should uses the original system controllers... I've been told the wireless controllers for these systems are garbage.
