AtGames is a Chinese company, though you won't find it mentioned anywhere on there website. But it becomes apparent when you see how little information is given in English on their products. AtGames has been manufacturing a product that plays Sega Genesis cartriges since 2003 as far as I can tell, starting overseas, gaining an official Sega license along the way (around 2007 or so), and now they're bringing it in a offical launch in North America (though you could find them since 2009 in different forms). You'll see this same hardware called different names over the years (the Mega X-3, the Firecore system), but 2012 is one of the first times that AtGames has actually made more of a marketing push and started using somewhat professional packaging, including the Sega Genesis logo and a few actual game characters. They also have separate Genesis and Master System hendheld portable systems they've been selling for a few years now, each year getting slight revisions in what games were included, and what packaging was used.

THE PRODUCT: It may say "80 Games" on the packaging, but this is misleading, as you only get 40 Genesis game, and 40 self-published game that could best be discribed as homebrew games (think of the contents of Action 52 and you'll understand). The biggest complaint gamers have is that the EMULATION IS ONLY 90-95%! This is your standard console-on-a-chip, and you'll find the sound is often presented at the wrong hertz (listen to the Sonic the Hedgehog start-up music and any long-time fans will spot the "off-key" music, as it is sometimes called). Sonic himself also doesn't quite reach the speeds he normally does, though its close. Colors can often be off in areas as well. Some people may not notice these little differences, but for the hardcore its a deal-breaker.

First to answer the basic questions.

1. Does this play real Sega cartridges?
A. Yes

2. Can you hook up original/wired Sega controllers?
A. Yes

3. Is this a genuine Sega console?
A. No

4. What kind of console is this?
A. I wouldn't call it a real console. Its branded Sega but Chinese built so a Sega Genesis knock off. The GUI or "menu" displays the name "FIRECORE." No idea about what emulator is being used or any plugins.

5. What games does it come with?
A. It claims to come with 80 games, 40 16-bit Sega games and 40 "bonus" games. These 40 "bonus" games are home brew games which never were released on Sega. Home brew games, in general, are poorly designed and are usually puzzle games not worth mentioning or playing. Home brew games are usually created by individuals or small groups that can never compete with the big boys. The games worth mentioning in my opinion are, Alex The Kid, Alien Storm, Altered Beast, Comix Zone, Ecco, Ecco Jr., Ecco 2, Gain Ground, Golden Axe 1, 2 and 3, Mean Bean Machine, Ristar, Shadow Dance, Shinobi 3, Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic and Knuckles, Sonic Spinball, Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2, Streets of Rage 1, 2 and 3, The Ooze and Vectorman 1 and 2. All other games preloaded on this are either home brews or I personally never heard of them.

6. Any problems with any of the games or that is note worthy?
A. The only game so far I have had problems with is Golden Axe 2 and 3. Golden Axe 2 has problems recognizing my wired retro-bit controllers and it won't respond to the D-pad. Golden Axe 3 will not recognize both wireless controllers that are supplied with this product so no two-player on Golden Axe 3 unless you use other controllers.

Let me preface this review by saying, I loved the Sega Genesis- I was the first kid on my block to get a Genesis and all the neighborhood kids would come over to play Golden Axe. I have a lot of fond memories of the Genesis. I was interested in this system because it already included a ton of incredible games and the controls are wireless. I got the system for $28 and thought the deal was too good to be true and, alas, it was. The wireless controllers are not responsive. They do not work unless you point them directly at the console and even when you do, a button press does not seem to register. For any true gamer, this ruins the experience and is unacceptable. DO NOT BUY.

[NOTE: This review is for the WIRED CONTROLLER edition of the system.]

On the surface, this seems like the perfect system for Sega Genesis lovers. After all, not only is it relatively inexpensive at just $40 in most retail stores, but it also includes 80 built-in games, 40 of which are for the Sega Genesis and the other 40 of which are low-quality, simplistic titles that aren't worth mentioning. The 40 Genesis titles include such classics as Altered Beast, Comix Zone, Ecco the Dolphin, Golden Axe, Shinobi III, Sonic the Hedgehog, Streets of Rage, and Vectorman. Although the other 40 games wouldn't cut it even on cell phones, the outstanding Sega Genesis library more than makes up for it. The controllers are surprisingly good, too, with D-pads that feel great and buttons that have a nice, responsive click to them.

However, once you hook up the system and start playing the games, the shoddy emulation rears its ugly head and taints the experience. Although the games seemingly handle just fine, the sound quality is simply not up to par. Every single game suffers from audio that's off-key, or low-pitched. This is especially noticeable when listening to games' soundtracks, but in most cases even their sound effects suffer from it. When revving up the spindash in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, for example, you're treated to a cringeworthy, high-pitched distortion that sounds nothing like what it does on an original Sega Genesis system. Thinking that the problem might have been related to the built-in games rather than the system itself, I also tried playing several original Sega Genesis cartridges--Bubsy, Jungle Strike, and Mutant League Football to name a few--and they all suffered from the same problem.
